Release Date Out Now
In a move that has sparked immense excitement across Kerala and beyond, Drishyam 3 is scheduled for a grand theatrical release on May 21, 2026. The date is significant as it coincides with Mohanlal’s 66th birthday, turning the premiere into a massive celebratory event for the superstar's global fanbase.
‘Drishyam 3’ Takes Darker Turn
Unlike the earlier films that showed Mohanlal’s Georgekutty as a calm and clever man using his knowledge of cinema to stay ahead of the law, Drishyam 3 is expected to take a darker psychological turn. The latest teaser and reports suggest that Georgekutty is now deeply paranoid and emotionally exhausted after carrying the burden of a deadly secret for years. Adding to the tension, hints indicate that the police may no longer be the only threat, as a mysterious third party appears to know the truth behind the crime he desperately tried to hide. Industry insiders believe the third installment could serve as the franchise’s final chapter, focusing on whether Georgekutty can protect his family one last time or if the truth will finally destroy everything he built. ‘Drishyam 3’ Teaser: Past Events Continue To Haunt Mohanlal’s Georgekutty in Upcoming Part of Jeethu Joseph’s Crime Thriller Franchise (Watch Video)
