Adivi Sesh on Dacoit’s delay and clash with ‘Toxic’
In a recent interview with Hindustan Times, Adivi Sesh spoke about the delay of his upcoming film ‘Dacoit’ and its new release date now coinciding with Yash’s ‘Toxic’. The actor said, I have always taken a long time to make films. Earlier, no one knew me, so it didn’t matter. With Major, people felt it (the delay) was due to Covid-19. I have always taken up to two years to make a film. But this time, a little delay happened because I injured myself. That set a situation where I couldn’t do the remaining heavy-duty action scenes for 2-3 months. I am still healing. I’m on the mend.”
