A bilingual release in Hindi and Telugu is a smart move. It's great to see South and Bollywood collaborations becoming more common. Anurag Kashyap in the cast is a major plus!

The passion is palpable from his statement. When a creator is this invested, it usually shows on screen. The title 'Dacoit' promises a gritty, raw story. Intriguing.

While I admire the effort, I hope the story is strong enough to match the intensity of the shoot. Sometimes these behind-the-scenes narratives are more compelling than the final film. Fingers crossed it delivers.
