Drishyam 3 Box Office: Ajay Devgn’s Film Crosses Rs 100 Crore in Just 2 Days

Ajay Devgn’s return as Vijay Salgaonkar has turned into a major box-office success. Drishyam 3: The Conclusion has crossed the ₹100 crore mark in India within just two days of its theatrical release, giving the final chapter of the popular thriller franchise a powerful start.

Released on October 2, 2026, the Abhishek Pathak-directed film opened strongly and continued its momentum on Saturday. According to reported box-office figures, Drishyam 3 earned ₹53.50 crore net in India on Day 2, taking its two-day domestic total to ₹115.50 crore. Its worldwide gross had already reached ₹177.10 crore after two days.

Drishyam 3 Crosses ₹100 Crore Faster Than Expected

The film had already made a strong impression on its opening day, collecting ₹66.75 crore net in India. Although Day 2 saw a drop compared with Friday, the thriller still managed to add another ₹53.50 crore.

That pushed the domestic total to ₹115.50 crore, meaning Drishyam 3 needed only two days to enter the ₹100 crore club. The film also recorded around 46.1 percent occupancy across shows on its second day, showing that audience interest remained strong.

For a franchise built around suspense, family loyalty and Vijay Salgaonkar’s ability to stay one step ahead, the numbers represent another major milestone for Ajay Devgn.

Ajay Devgn’s Vijay Salgaonkar Returns One Last Time

One of the biggest attractions of Drishyam 3 is, of course, Ajay Devgn’s return as Vijay Salgaonkar.

The character has become one of the most recognizable figures in modern Hindi thrillers, with the franchise building its popularity around his intelligence and determination to protect his family.

This time, the story serves as the concluding chapter of the Hindi Drishyam franchise. That final-chapter factor has added another layer of curiosity for audiences who have followed Vijay’s journey since the first film arrived in 2015.

The Franchise Continues Its Strong Box Office Journey

The Hindi Drishyam franchise began with the 2015 film directed by Nishikant Kamat. Its success eventually led to Drishyam 2, which arrived in 2022 with Abhishek Pathak in the director’s chair.

Now, Pathak has returned for the third and final Hindi installment.

The combination of an established franchise, Ajay Devgn’s return and the promise of a final conclusion has helped Drishyam 3 attract audiences in large numbers from its opening days.

₹177 Crore Worldwide in Two Days

The domestic milestone is only part of the story.

After two days, Drishyam 3 had reportedly collected ₹177.10 crore worldwide. Its India net stood at ₹115.50 crore, while the remaining amount came from the film’s international business and other gross calculations.

That puts the film on a strong trajectory heading into the rest of its opening weekend.

The thriller subsequently maintained its momentum on Sunday, with later reports putting its three-day India net collection at ₹176.50 crore.

A New Box Office Benchmark for the Franchise

Drishyam 3 is not simply benefiting from the popularity of the earlier films. Its opening performance has established a significantly larger box-office scale for the franchise.

The film also registered the second-biggest Bollywood opening of 2026 at the time of its release, according to NDTV’s box-office roundup.

That makes its early performance particularly notable as the movie industry heads into another busy theatrical period.

What Comes Next for Drishyam 3?

Crossing ₹100 crore in two days has given Drishyam 3 a strong foundation, but the bigger question is how far the film can go.

With the final chapter already attracting substantial audiences, attention will now turn toward its full theatrical run and whether Vijay Salgaonkar’s final story can push the film into even bigger box-office territory.

For Ajay Devgn, the success also reinforces the commercial strength of one of his most popular modern franchises.

Drishyam 3: The Conclusion has made its intentions clear: Vijay Salgaonkar may be reaching the end of his cinematic journey, but the franchise is going out with a major box-office impact.
