Adivi Sesh to welcome 2026 shooting on 'rocky mountain' in 'middle of nowhere'
Mumbai, Dec 29
Actor Adivi Sesh is set to ring in the New Year in an unconventional manner, as he prepares to welcome 2026 while shooting for the climax of his upcoming film "Dacoit" in "middle of nowhere".
Sharing details about his plans, Sesh revealed that he will be filming the crucial sequence on a rocky mountain in a remote location, far removed from city life.
Talking about his New Year plans, Sesh told IANS: ""I'll be welcoming the New Year in a truly unique way - shooting the big climax sequence of Dacoit on a rocky mountain in the middle of nowhere."
The actor is looking forward to "clean air and great AQI".
"With no cell phone signal and surrounded by complete pitch darkness, it's a rare kind of isolation. But what we'll have instead is clean air, great AQI, and the raw energy of nature - an unforgettable way to step into the New Year," he said.
The film also stars Mrunal Thakur, director and actor Anurag Kashyap in a powerful role. It also has Prakash Raj, Sunil, Atul Kulkarni, Zayn Marie Khan, and Kamakshi Bhaskarla among others.
It traces the journey of an angry convict determined to seek revenge on his ex-girlfriend, who betrayed him. As he crafts a perilous plan to trap her, the story evolves into an emotionally intense tale of love, betrayal, and vengeance.
Shot simultaneously in Hindi and Telugu, the film's story and screenplay have been jointly crafted by Adivi Sesh and Shaneil Deo. Currently in post-production, Dacoit is gearing up for a grand pan-India release.
The actor will also be seen in "G2", an upcoming Telugu-language action spy thriller film directed by Vinay Kumar Sirigineedi in his directorial debut. It is a sequel to Goodachari with Adivi Sesh reprising his role. The film also stars Emraan Hashmi, Wamiqa Gabbi and Madhu Shalini.

"Clean air and great AQI" - that line hit home! While it's great for his film, it's a sad reminder of the air quality in our metros. Maybe we all need a bit of that 'middle of nowhere' peace sometimes. Wishing the team a safe and successful shoot!
Interesting concept. A Hindi-Telugu bilingual with such a strong cast is ambitious. Adivi Sesh has been making smart choices. The plot of love, betrayal, and vengeance is classic but can be powerful if executed well. Hoping for a fresh take.
Goodachari was brilliant! So excited for G2 as well. Sesh is on a roll. But honestly, shooting in complete isolation on New Year's sounds intense. Hope the crew is safe and has some small celebration too. All the best, team Dacoit! 🎬
Respect the hustle, but I hope this trend of actors talking about 'isolation' and 'no phone' during shoots doesn't become a PR gimmick. Many crews work in tough conditions year-round without it being news. Just focus on making a good film, yaar.
Anurag Kashyap in a powerful role? Sold! The man elevates any project he's part of. The storyline sounds gripping. A revenge drama shot on a rocky mountain for the climax... picturisation must be epic. 2026 is looking good for Indian cinema!
