Here's the latest box office buzz making the rounds:

Drishyam 3 ticket-window earnings day 6 : After a strong opening weekend, Ajay Devgn ’s movie crossed the ₹ 200 crore rupees mark within just five days. Helmed by Abhishek Pathak , the movie continued to attract audiences to theatres. While it held up on its first Monday, the crime thriller witnessed a dip in collections midweek. Here’s a look at how the movie has performed at the ticket-window so far.

Adding to this, Drishyam 3 ticket-window earnings day 6: Ajay Devgn’s biggest opener now eyes Drishyam 2's lifetime record. (HT_PRINT) Drishyam 3 midweek report card Last Friday, Drishyam 3 delivered a record opening for Ajay Devgn. The advance bookings for Drishyam The Conclusion opened on September 27, and the movie went on to collect ₹ 27 crore rupees before its rollout. By the end of the day, the movie went on to collect ₹ 66.75 crore rupees net across India. This is the third biggest opening by a Hindi movie ever and the biggest in Ajay Devgn’s career.

Meanwhile, While it dipped on Saturday, bringing in ₹ 53.50 crore rupees, the movie recovered on Sunday, bringing in ₹ 61 crore rupees. In its first weekend, Drishyam 3 has outpaced the collections of films such as War and Tiger 3, beating the lifetime of Awarapan 2. As per the latest update from Sacnilk, Drishyam 3 has collected ₹ 15.50 crore rupees on Wednesday. Although it is the lowest single-day haul for the movie, it has still collected in double digits, showing a remarkable hold for a weekday. This takes its total net collection to ₹ 232.50 crore rupees.

Notably, Drishyam 3 is co-written, produced, and directed by Abhishek Pathak. Produced by Panorama Studios and Star Studio18. It is a sequel to the 2022 movie Drishyam 2. Ajay Devgn, Jaideep Ahlawat, Tabu, Shriya Saran, Rajat Kapoor, Prakash Raj, Ishita Dutta, and Mrunal Jadhav star in the movie, which features an ending different from the Malayalam counterpart directed by Jeethu Joseph and starring Mohanlal. Drishyam 3 is currently one of the highest-grossing films of 2026, and it has received a good response since its rollout. It now has Mirzapur, Hanuman Ansh, Border 2 and Dhurandhar: The Revenge to contend with.

As per the latest buzz, In an interview with Free Press Journal, Drishyam 3 writer Aamil Keeyan Khan revealed Abhishek ran the production with the same caution that Vijay Salgaonkar would have used while covering his tracks. "Abhishek basically ran the production like Vijay Salgaonkar would," he shared. “The climax wasn't given to a large part of the crew. People got information on a need-to-know basis. Sometimes a department only knew what it needed to execute a scene, not necessarily why it was executing it. A lot of actors and crew from the movie, and my own friends and relatives, tried to bribe me for the ending. But like Gaitonde, I remained honest and loyal to the producers”.
