The two stars were seen dressed in traditional Indian wear as they offered prayers at the temple. Sesh shared: “Every film is a leap of faith. We put years of work into something and then place it in the hands of the audience. Starting this journey at Tirupati felt right. It was important for us to begin with gratitude and seek blessings before stepping into the whirlwind of promotions.” Sesh had earlier visited the Bhadrakali Temple in Warangal ahead of the release of his upcoming film.

Sesh has launched its first song, Rubaroo. The romantic track, picturised on Sesh and co-star Mrunal Thakur. Directed by Shaniel Deo, “Dacoit” also stars Anurag Kashyap in a pivotal antagonist role.

Launching promotions with this song felt right. Before we begin sharing this story with audiences, I wanted to take a moment to seek blessings and gratitude.”
