Dacoit: A Love Story, starring Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur in the lead role, added Rs. 7.75 crore to the tally on its Day 3 (Sunday), witnessing a drop of 8 per cent over Day 2. That took its opening weekend’s cume to Rs. 24.25 crore gross at the Indian box office.
The bilingual romantic action drama should have recorded a spike on Sunday or stayed flat, but the drop has almost sealed its fate. The Adivi Sesh starrer movie isn’t performing on the expected lines; rather, it’s a disappointing weekend with poor trends for such a well-budgeted film.

Dacoit grossed around Rs. 15.50 crore from its home markets, which is around 63 per cent of its whole domestic cume. The Shaneil Deo directorial collected around Rs. 3.15 crore from Karnataka and Rs. 50 lakh from Tamil Nadu and Kerala. The rest of the Indian markets, including Hindi, contributed around Rs. 5.10 crore gross in its three days of theatrical run.
Based on the current trends, Dacoit is heading to end up being a flop at the box office. Let’s see if the movie can show some legs on the weekdays.
