Historic Run — Mollywood’s 2nd Biggest 3-Day Collection

With a ₹40.60 crore India net collection in three days, Drishyam 3 has recorded the second-highest 3-day total in Malayalam cinema history. The top spot is still held by L2: Empuraan with ₹45.35 crore. Interestingly, both films star Mohanlal, highlighting his massive box office pull.

This success once again proves Mohanlal’s dominance in Malayalam cinema. Drishyam 3 has emerged as one of the biggest Malayalam hits of the year after releasing on May 21 to packed theatres across several regions.

According to Sacnilk, the film also recorded the second-biggest Malayalam worldwide opening ever, earning ₹43.50 crore on Day 1. Only L2: Empuraan remains ahead with a massive ₹67.50 crore opening worldwide.

Strong Buzz in International Markets

The Drishyam 3 worldwide success is not only because of India. The film is also getting huge support from audiences overseas.

International markets played a big part in the film’s strong performance. On Day 3 alone, the movie earned around ₹25 crore from overseas markets. With this, its total overseas collection reached nearly ₹70 crore, helping the film quickly cross the ₹100 crore mark worldwide.

The film is performing especially well in Gulf countries, North America, the UK, and Australia, where ticket bookings have remained very strong. This also shows how Malayalam cinema is becoming more popular across the world.
