Drishyam 3 isn’t just holding its ground — it’s pushing forward with unexpected force. After a sharper-than-expected drop on its second Monday, the film has rebounded on day 12, fueled by a surge in advance bookings and a strategic Blockbuster Tuesday offer. According to Koimoi’s day 12 advance booking update, Drishyam 3 sold 1.91 lakh tickets (excluding blocked seats) before the first show, a jump of 66,000 from the previous day’s 1.25 lakh. This spike translates into a 31.66% increase in gross collections at the Indian box office, up from ₹2.59 crore on day 11 to ₹3.41 crore through advance sales alone. Net collections stand at ₹2.89 crore, reflecting the impact of discounted ticket rates that have pushed average prices below ₹300. The lower pricing has driven footfall, helping the film expand its screen count from 13,946 on Monday to 15,192 today. A notable achievement for a weekday in the second week. While the influx of walk-ins and strong pre-sales suggest momentum, trade sources note that collections will remain steady rather than spike dramatically, due to the reduced ticket value. Still, the trajectory is clear: the film is projected to earn between ₹6.5 and ₹7 crore net on day 12. At this pace, Drishyam 3 is now on track to cross the ₹400 crore net mark globally. The franchise’s third chapter, led by Ajay Devgn, continues to defy typical second-week decline patterns. With no new data beyond what’s reported, the next question isn’t whether it’ll hit the milestone, but how fast it’ll get there.
