On day four, Drishyam 3 pulled in a net ₹21 crore across 16,274 shows, pushing its India gross to ₹237 crore and net to ₹197.5 crore. Overseas, the film booked ₹5 crore, bringing the overseas total to ₹66 crore and the global tally to ₹303 crore—a figure that already places it among the biggest openers of 2026.
Taran Adarsh, in a burst of Instagram commentary, highlighted that the film’s Sunday takings matched Friday’s, a rare symmetry that signals strong word‑of‑mouth. He added that the studio’s decision to forgo discounted tickets on Tuesday may keep the weekday business steady, a gamble that appears to be paying off.
Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV praised Jaideep Ahlawat’s performance as the film’s emotional anchor, noting that while Ajay Devgn delivers the expected heft, it’s Ahlawat who gives the story its lasting punch. He also pointed out that director Abhishek Pathak has written an original script, diverging from the Malayalam roots of the first two films.
With the momentum continuing, the film is slated to remain in multiplexes through the month, while fans are already speculating about a potential spin‑off or a new chapter in the Drishyam saga. For now, the numbers speak louder than the trailers—India’s screens are still buzzing with Drishyam 3’s relentless march toward record territory.
