Adivi Sesh-Mrunal Thakur Power Through Injuries on ‘Dacoit’ Set, Finish Shoot Without Delay

Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur pushed through minor injuries while shooting a high-energy action scene for their upcoming bilingual film ‘Dacoit’ in Hyderabad. A high-intensity sequence led to the accident, but both stars chose not to take a break. Instead, they stayed on set and finished their portions before seeking medical care. Their decision earned praise from fans and film insiders alike, proving their strong commitment to the film.

Despite the physical pain, Adivi and Mrunal refused to disrupt the schedule. Adivi plans to consult a doctor after the current shoot wraps up, while Mrunal stayed focused and completed her scenes. Their actions reflect the high demands of action-heavy films like Dacoit, where such incidents test the actors’ resilience and passion for the craft.

She adapted to the role quickly and brought her signature depth and energy to the performance. With her strong background in both Bollywood and South Indian cinema, Mrunal added greater appeal to the film.
