Drishyam 3 has done what few sequels manage: it didn’t just perform — it redefined the benchmark. In just four days, the film’s cumulative net collection across all three installments reached 512.5 crore at the Indian box office, edging past Rohit Shetty’s Singham franchise, which stands at 511.60 crore. The margin? A mere 90 lakh. But the significance isn’t in the numbers alone.
It’s in how they were earned. While Singham built its empire on explosive action and star power, Drishyam thrived on narrative precision, suspense, and word-of-mouth momentum. The third installment opened with a strong weekend, but it was the sustained performance, especially through the first Monday. That sealed the deal.
Drishyam 3 itself contributed 195.5 crore, following 76.16 crore from the original and 240.59 crore from Drishyam 2. That’s a steady climb, not a spike. The franchise now sits ahead of other major Hindi franchises like Golmaal (392.57 crore), Dhamaal (409.76 crore), and even Raid (280.84 crore).
