Drishyam 3’s second Friday grossed 15 crore — a 15.38% increase from day 7’s 13 crore, marking Bollywood’s second-biggest second Friday of 2026, behind only Dhurandhar 2’s 42 crore. The film now stands at 258.5 crore net in India, with gross collections reaching 305.03 crore. It has surpassed Border 2’s 12.53 crore to claim the second spot on the year’s list for second Fridays. According to trade sources quoted by Koimoi, the Ajay Devgn-led crime thriller is on track to enter the 300 crore net club by the end of the second weekend. That milestone would see it dethrone Salman Khan’s Tiger 3, which holds the record as the highest-grossing Bollywood threequel in India with 286 crore net. Drishyam 3 needs just 27.5 crore more to achieve that. The target is expected to be met on day 10, the second Sunday. Advance bookings for day 9 are up 71%, indicating strong momentum heading into the final stretch of the opening weekend. The film’s steady performance is attributed to favorable word-of-mouth and the absence of major Hindi releases during the period. While the Hindi version’s run is heating up, the Telugu version remains unmentioned in current reports. No official figures have been released for its collection. But the numbers for the Hindi release are clear: this isn’t just another hit. It’s a record in the making.
