Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur starrer Dacoit: A Love Story is nearing the end of its theatrical run with underwhelming box office trends. The romantic action drama has failed to show any significant growth post its opening weekend, indicating a disappointing trajectory.
Directed by Shaneil Deo, the film continues to record low daily numbers, suggesting limited audience traction despite its initial buzz and ensemble cast.
Dacoit Records Rs 39.15 Crore In 13 Days
The film added approximately Rs 0.35 crore on Day 13 (second Wednesday), taking its total India gross to Rs 39.15 crore. After a decent opening weekend, the collections witnessed a steady decline, with no substantial jumps over weekdays or the second weekend.
The second week is expected to close around Rs 39.50 crore, reflecting a sharp drop compared to its opening phase.

Weekend Projections And Lifetime Estimate
Based on current trends, Dacoit is expected to add around Rs 1 crore to Rs 2 crore over its third weekend. This would take its cumulative total close to Rs 41 crore before the film slows down further in the following days.
The film is now targeting a lifetime gross of approximately Rs 43 crore at the Indian box office. Given its reported scale and expectations, this total is on the lower side, indicating a below-par performance commercially.
Verdict So Far
Despite featuring a strong cast including Anurag Kashyap, Prakash Raj, Sunil, Atul Kulkarni, Zayn Marie Khan, and Kamakshi Bhaskarla, the film could not sustain momentum at the ticket windows.
With declining collections and limited growth prospects, Dacoit: A Love Story is heading towards wrapping up its theatrical run as a disappointing venture.
