Dacoit: A Love Story Box Office Morning Occupancy
The Telugu film industry has seen some massive openers this 12 months, and Dacoit has managed to carve out his own space amongst these giants. With a powerful morning occupancy of 30.54%, the film has officially entered the Top 5 highest morning occupancies for Telugu movies in 2026.

- The RajaSaab: 52.6%
- Mana Shankara Vara Prasad Garu: 41.75%
- Dacoit: A Love Story: 30.54%

The large query is whether or not Dacoit will surpass the opening day of Adivi Sesh’s previous success HIT: The Second Case. For the unversed, HIT 2 opened at 6.4 crore on the box office, and given the present pace, Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur might beat this number with the opening day of their revenge drama.
