Drishyam 3 Delivers a Blockbuster Opening Weekend
Ajay Devgn's Drishyam 3: The Conclusion has turned its much-awaited theatrical release into a major box-office success.
Released on October 2, 2026, the third and final chapter of the popular Drishyam franchise recorded a powerful opening weekend, collecting an estimated ₹176.50 crore net in India after three days.
Its worldwide gross has reached approximately ₹272.80 crore, according to the latest trade estimates, putting the film just under the ₹300-crore mark globally.
Drishyam 3 Box Office Collection Day 1, Day 2 and Day 3
The film maintained strong momentum throughout its opening weekend.
On Day 1, Drishyam 3 collected around ₹62 crore net in India, according to the latest India Today breakdown. The film then earned ₹53.50 crore on Saturday, taking its two-day domestic total beyond ₹115 crore.
The biggest boost came on Sunday. Drishyam 3 earned an estimated ₹61 crore net on Day 3, taking its three-day India total to ₹176.50 crore.
| Day | India Net Collection |
|---|---|
| Day 1 | ₹62 crore |
| Day 2 | ₹53.50 crore |
| Day 3 | ₹61 crore |
| Total | ₹176.50 crore |
The Sunday jump is particularly significant because it shows that the film continued attracting audiences after its strong opening rather than relying only on opening-day curiosity.
Drishyam 3 Nears ₹300 Crore Worldwide
The film's overseas performance has added significantly to its worldwide total.
After three days, Drishyam 3 has reportedly earned around ₹61 crore from overseas markets, while its India gross has reached approximately ₹211.80 crore.
Together, these figures have taken the film's worldwide gross to around ₹272.80 crore. If the current momentum continues through the weekdays, crossing the ₹300 crore worldwide mark could become the film's next major milestone.
Drishyam 3 Beats Its Previous Franchise Films
The third instalment has opened considerably bigger than its predecessors.
The original Drishyam, released in 2015, earned around ₹23.05 crore during its opening weekend in India. Drishyam 2, released in 2022, recorded approximately ₹64.14 crore during its first weekend.
Drishyam 3, meanwhile, has already reached ₹176.50 crore net in three days, demonstrating the massive growth of the franchise over the past decade.
The film has also emerged as one of the biggest Hindi film opening weekends of 2026, currently ranking behind Dhurandhar 2 in the reported yearly comparison.
Ajay Devgn Returns as Vijay Salgaonkar
The box-office performance is being driven by the continued popularity of Vijay Salgaonkar, the character played by Ajay Devgn.
Directed by Abhishek Pathak, Drishyam 3: The Conclusion brings back several familiar faces, including Tabu, Shriya Saran, Ishita Dutta, Rajat Kapoor, Prakash Raj and Mrunal Jadhav. Jaideep Ahlawat joins the story as a major new addition.
The film continues the story of the Salgaonkar family while introducing a new mystery and another confrontation with the authorities.
Can Drishyam 3 Cross ₹300 Crore?
With nearly ₹273 crore worldwide in only three days, Drishyam 3 has positioned itself strongly for the next phase of its theatrical run.
The crucial test will now be its weekday box-office collections. Strong Monday and Tuesday numbers would give the film a clear path toward ₹300 crore worldwide and potentially much higher earnings during its theatrical run.
For Ajay Devgn, the performance is another major success for the franchise and demonstrates the commercial power of established Hindi film series when audience anticipation translates into theatrical footfall.
With the ₹300-crore worldwide milestone now within reach, Drishyam 3: The Conclusion is shaping up to be one of the biggest Bollywood box-office stories of 2026.
