Drishyam 3, directed by Abhishek Pathak, is on track to become the second-highest grossing Indian film of 2026, with a worldwide total near Rs 5 billion. The film has already surpassed Ajay Devgn's previous record with Tanhaji, collecting Rs 300 crore net in India within the first ten days of its run.
