Drishyam 3 Set for October 2 Release with Strong Advance Bookings and New Storyline
Drishyam 3: The Conclusion, starring Ajay Devgn, is set to release on October 2 as the final chapter of the Hindi franchise. The film features a new storyline distinct from the Malayalam version and introduces Jaideep Ahlawat as SP Rajveer Singh Tomar. Advance bookings indicate a strong box office opening, with estimates around Rs 50 crore on Day 1. Ajay Devgn sought Malayalam star Mohanlal's approval for the film, emphasizing the challenge of concluding the story while maintaining the franchise's signature suspense.
