Scheduling Conflicts or Control Issues? Shruti Haasan Leaves Dacoit!

Like a star that fades from one sky only to shine brighter in another, Shruti Haasan's sudden exit from *Dacoit* has left fans wondering why. After making headlines for her personal breakup with artist Santanu Hazarika, the actress is now trending for a professional breakup. Shruti, who was cast in Adivi Sesh’s action-packed thriller *Dacoit*, made waves with her stunning appearance in the film's earlier glimpses. However, recent reports suggest that she has walked away from the project. But why did she make this unexpected move?

Rumors surrounding Shruti's departure point to a scheduling conflict as the primary reason, but there’s more to the story. Another buzz in the industry is that Adivi Sesh, the lead actor, allegedly took over creative control of the project, sidelining the director. Shruti Haasan, who signed on because of her trust in the director’s vision, was reportedly unhappy with Sesh’s growing influence on set. This shift in dynamics may have prompted her to reconsider her involvement in the film.

While it’s been months since *Dacoit* began filming, fans are still waiting for an official statement confirming Shruti’s exit. The actress, known for her busy schedule, has several other major projects on her plate, including *Coolie*, *Salaar 2*, *Shouryanga Parvam*, and *Chennai Story*. With so many commitments, it’s possible that she had no choice but to step away from *Dacoit* to focus on these other high-profile ventures.

*Dacoit* was being helmed by cinematographer-turned-director Shaneil Deo, and produced by Supriya Yarlagadda and Suniel Narang. The teaser, released last December, showcased a gripping face-off between Adivi Sesh and Shruti Haasan. As fans eagerly await more news on the film, Shruti's exit leaves a gap that will be hard to fill, and the future of the project remains uncertain.
