'Drishyam 3' Set for a Box Office Storm! Could It Become Ajay Devgn's Biggest Opener?

Ajay Devgn is all set to return as Vijay Salgaonkar in the much-awaited third installment of the hit 'Drishyam' franchise. The trailer of 'Drishyam 3' has been released and has generated considerable excitement among fans.

The film promises another gripping combination of suspense, thriller, family drama and mystery. Following the trailer release, early predictions for the film’s opening-day box office collection have also started making headlines.

Could 'Drishyam 3' Open at ₹60 Crore?

According to the reports cited in the supplied article, Pinkvilla has predicted that 'Drishyam 3' could collect around ₹60 crore on its opening day.

Meanwhile, Koimoi has estimated an opening in the range of ₹45–50 crore.

If the film manages to cross the ₹45 crore mark, it could become Ajay Devgn’s biggest opening-day grosser.

Will It Beat 'Singham Again'?

Ajay Devgn’s 'Singham Again' reportedly earned around ₹43.7 crore on its opening day.

Therefore, an opening above ₹45 crore would put 'Drishyam 3' ahead of that figure and potentially give Ajay Devgn a new career-best opening.

The film is scheduled to release on October 2, which coincides with Gandhi Jayanti, a national holiday in India. The holiday is expected to give the movie an additional advantage at the box office.

Strong Star Cast

Apart from Ajay Devgn, the film features Tabu, Shriya Saran, Rajat Kapoor, Kamlesh Sawant, Jaideep Ahlawat and Prakash Raj.

The movie has been directed by Abhishek Pathak.

According to reports, Akshaye Khanna was initially associated with the project but later exited due to creative differences and changes to his character’s look. Following his exit, Jaideep Ahlawat joined the cast.

The 'Drishyam' Franchise Returns

The original 'Drishyam' was released in 2015 and became popular for its gripping storyline and suspense.

The second installment, 'Drishyam 2', arrived in 2022 and was also well received by audiences.

Now, expectations are high for the third chapter. With the franchise’s established fan base, Ajay Devgn’s return as Vijay Salgaonkar and the advantage of a national holiday, 'Drishyam 3' could be heading for a massive opening.

If the early predictions of ₹45–60 crore come true, the film could set a new opening-day record for Ajay Devgn.
