Earlier the film was set to feature Shruti Haasan in the lead role and she even shot a promo but exited the project due to creative differences. Mrunal Thakur stepped into the role soon after.
Speaking about her role with media, Mrunal shared, “Dacoit’s story is true and beautifully blends rustic storytelling with the stylised vision of both Adivi Sesh and Shaneil Deo. The character I will portray allows me to explore dimensions I haven’t delved into before as an actor. This unique blend of genre and narrative makes Dacoit an exciting project for audiences. I can’t wait to immerse myself in Shaneil’s envisioned world.”
On the work front, Mrunal Thakur is gearing up for the releases of ‘Pooja Meri Jaan’ and ‘Hai Jawani Toh Ishq Hona Hai’. She’s also playing a key role in Son of Sardaar 2, the sequel to the 2012 hit with Ajay Devgan.
