The film is produced by Supriya Yarlagadda, co-produced by Sunil Narang and presented by Annapurna Studios. The film is being shot simultaneously in Hindi and Telugu. The story and screenplay have been prepared by Adivi Sesh and Shaniyal Dev. The film is currently being shot in Hyderabad. After this, another schedule is yet to be shot in Maharashtra.

Mrunal replaced Shruti

Shruti Haasan was earlier cast in the film Dacoit. But after the poster release today, it has become clear that Mrunal has replaced Shruti in this film.  Speaking about the film, Mrunal said that the story of Dacoit is true to its essence, a great way of telling a rustic story, which is enhanced by the ideas of both Adivi and Shenil Dev. "The character that I am going to play in the film will give me a chance to play a character that I have never played before as an actor. I cannot wait to delve deeper into the world imagined by Shenil," Sita Ramam actress said.
