On Friday, October 9, Drishyam 3’s revenue saw a 11.5 % lift, pulling in ₹14.5 cr net in India. The cumulative domestic haul now sits at ₹260 cr, while the worldwide total ticks over ₹407 cr.
The film kicked off with a hefty ₹62 cr net on its opening Friday, trailing with ₹53.5 cr Saturday and ₹61 cr Sunday, bringing the weekend total to ₹176.5 cr. Though the first‑week daily drops—₹21 cr on Day 4, ₹19.5 cr on Day 5, ₹15.5 cr on Day 6, and ₹13 cr on Day 7—showed a gradual slide, the momentum never vanished.
Director Abhishek Pathak’s third instalment follows a fresh narrative line, steering away from the Malayalam roots. Ajay Devgn reprises his tight‑fisted mastermind Vijay Salgaonkar, with Tabu again as the steadfast Meera Deshmukh. Supporting cast—Jaideep Ahlawat, Shriya Saran, Rajat Kapoor, Prakash Raj—add depth to the tense thriller.
Overseas, the film added another ₹6 cr on its second Friday, pushing the foreign gross to ₹95 cr. Those 5.83 lakh admissions on Day 8 bring the total footfall to about 1.07 cr, a solid testament to its global appeal.
With the domestic run steady, attention now shifts to the upcoming digital release and any future spin‑offs. Fans can expect a binge‑watching window soon, while the franchise’s next chapter—if any—will likely answer whether Vijay’s careful plans can survive the next trial.
