Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur’s upcoming action thriller “Dacoit” has already created headlines, clinching the biggest audio rights deal of Sesh’s career ahead of its December 2025 release. The film, which also stars renowned filmmaker Anurag Kashyap in a pivotal role, recently sold its audio rights to Sony Music for a staggering ₹8 crore. This figure sets a new high in the careers of the film’s cast and crew, highlighting both the industry’s growing faith in the project and the commercial clout of its music composer, Bheems Ceciroleo.
The high-profile deal comes on the heels of Ceciroleo’s string of chartbuster albums in recent years, raising expectations for “Dacoit’s” soundtrack to deliver major hits. Even before the music’s official launch, buzz has been building thanks to Ceciroleo’s proven record of blending mass appeal with contemporary sound, promising both energetic item numbers and emotionally rich tracks that should serve the film’s pan-Indian ambitions.
Interesting for fans, the musical fever is expected to begin in earnest with a much-awaited teaser glimpse scheduled for May 26. Aside from its star cast and music, “Dacoit” also marks a pivotal directorial debut for acclaimed cinematographer Shaniel Deo, known for his stylish work in movies like “Kshanam” and “Goodachari.” The project is jointly produced by Supriya Yarlagadda and Suniel Narang, adding further heft to its already heavyweight team.
As production races toward a December release, the record-breaking audio rights deal signals not only high anticipation for the film’s music but also a major vote of confidence from industry insiders. With a top-tier cast, an acclaimed composer, and big studio backing, “Dacoit” is shaping up to be one of the most talked-about Telugu films of the year, both musically and cinematically.
