Drishyam: The Conclusion has crossed ₹172 crore nett in India after three days — and it’s not slowing down. The film, which opened to a strong holiday-weekend surge, saw a 10-15% jump on Sunday, with key markets like Maharashtra, Gujarat, and the North rebounding from Saturday’s dip. That growth wasn’t just a fluke. In Maharashtra, the film even outperformed its opening day, a rare feat for any big release, especially one that’s already banked over ₹170 crore. Ajay Devgn’s Maratha persona still holds sway, as it did in Singham and Tanhaji. The state remains the franchise’s bedrock. But the real question now isn’t whether it’s a hit. It’s how high it can climb. It’s sitting third in the all-time domestic weekend rankings, behind Dhurandar: The Revenge and Jawan, but ahead of Pushpa 2 (Hindi) at ₹180 crore. So close. So competitive. And yet, the numbers are still moving. The next few days will decide if this is a blockbuster or something bigger. Worldwide, it’s already cleared ₹266 crore in three days, a global launch that’s only deepened the debate around Indian cinema’s growing clout. Hollywood’s dominance? Not so much anymore. The empire’s waning, and the box office is showing it. Now, the real test begins: can Drishyam keep rising, or will the momentum stall by midweek? We’ll know by Thursday morning.
