EXCLUSIVE: CBFC clears Drishyam The Conclusion WITHOUT a single cut; is 8 minutes longer than Drishyam 2

The film earned a U/A 16+ certificate with no cuts and sold about 160,000 tickets on opening day, according to Sacnilk.

  • On Friday, October 2, 2026, the Ajay Devgn-starrer Drishyam 3: The Conclusion hit theaters, collecting Rs 66.75 crore net on its opening day and marking the biggest opening of Devgn's career, surpassing Singham Again.
  • As the third and final chapter in the Hindi franchise, Drishyam 3 brings Devgn back as Vijay Salgaonkar to conclude the suspense series. Unlike the Malayalam version, this adaptation charts its own narrative path for the Salgaonkar family.
  • Advance booking figures demonstrated significant pre-release momentum, with Drishyam 3 registering gross pre-sales exceeding Rs 49 crore. Trade trackers reported over 1.3 million tickets sold for the opening weekend, reflecting strong audience anticipation.
  • Following its massive opening, Drishyam 3 maintained strong momentum, crossing the Rs 100 crore mark within two days of release. Day 2 collections reached Rs 53.50 crore net, reflecting sustained audience interest across India.
  • Critics have largely praised performances, particularly Devgn's return and Jaideep Ahlawat's addition to the cast. The film is positioned for a largely solo run until October 16, 2026, when competing releases arrive.
