The third Drishyam chapter is turning its second Sunday into a milestone box-office story. Drishyam 3: The Conclusion had added Rs 5.46 crore net by the early Day 10 update, taking its India net total to Rs 291.96 crore, with 5,545 shows running and final numbers still to be reported.
India gross collections stood at Rs 350.24 crore, according to trade figures collated by The Times of India. The Ajay Devgn-led film is now expected to cross the Rs 300 crore India net mark by the end of the day.
How the second weekend is holding
The Abhishek Pathak directorial opened at Rs 62 crore and collected Rs 245 crore net in its first week. The second Friday brought Rs 14.50 crore, and Saturday recovered to Rs 26.50 crore. Sunday’s live figure of Rs 5.46 crore is the early number; evening and night shows usually add the biggest share, which is why the trade expects the day to end much higher.
- Week 1: Rs 245 crore India net
- Day 8: Rs 14.50 crore
- Day 9: Rs 26.50 crore
- Day 10 (live): Rs 5.46 crore, total Rs 291.96 crore
The global picture
Worldwide gross had reached Rs 446.80 crore by the end of Day 9, and Day 10 worldwide numbers are yet to come in. Once they are reported, the film is tipped to move past Rs 460 crore globally.
Why this matters
The franchise has brought back Ajay Devgn as Vijay Salgaonkar, with the closed case from the second film reopening in this third instalment. The cast also includes Jaideep Ahlawat, Shriya Saran, Ishita Dutta, Tabu, Rajat Kapoor, Prakash Raj and Mrunal Jadhav. The film released in theatres on October 2, 2026, and a Rs 300 crore net total would put it among the stronger Hindi theatrical runs of the year.
For fans keeping score, the difference between India net and gross matters. The net figure is the domestic benchmark used in the day-wise table above; gross includes taxes and is larger. That is why India gross is Rs 350.24 crore while India net is Rs 291.96 crore, with worldwide gross sitting at Rs 446.80 crore.
What to watch next
Keep an eye on the final Day 10 numbers. If the evening shows add pace, the film could cross Rs 300 crore net in India before the day ends; if not, it should cross early in the week. The worldwide gross crossing Rs 460 crore is the next headline to watch.
