Plot and critical response

The film follows the story of a convicted murderer who escapes from prison. He is driven by a single goal, which is to seek revenge on his former lover. As the story unfolds, unexpected developments change his path and blur the line between justice and morality.ETimes review for the film reads, "The film packs in several twists, and a few of them, including the climax, are genuinely shocking. On paper, these moments have real impact, but they needed far tighter writing to truly land. There’s a clear attempt to tap into the current wave of stylised, massy, alpha-male driven action cinema that’s dominating the space. Dacoit: The Love Story aims to ride that high with a mix of intensity, emotion and swagger"DISCLAIMER: The box office numbers and the data in this article are compiled from public and industry sources.
