Drishyam 3 has made a significant impact at the box office, starting its journey with a collection of ₹10.56 crore on its opening day in India. This figure, while impressive, is not enough to surpass the collections of the previous hit L2 Empuraan, but it did manage to outdo Thudarum. The film attracted audiences from across different regions, with ₹9.11 crore coming from Malayalam showings, and smaller contributions from Tamil (₹0.36 crore), Telugu (₹0.96 crore), and Kannada (₹0.13 crore).

The film had an occupancy rate of 50.5% on its first day, indicating a strong interest but also leaving room for improvement as it moves into the weekend. The performance of Drishyam 3 is crucial not only for its overall box office success but also for the future of Mohanlal's career and the franchise as a whole.

Directed by Jeethu Joseph and produced by Antony Perumbavoor for Aashirvad Cinemas, Drishyam 3 sees the return of beloved characters portrayed by a talented cast, including Mohanlal, Meena, Ansiba Hassan, Esther Anil, Murali Gopy, Siddique, and Asha Sarath. Fans of the series are eager to see how this installment continues the gripping storyline established in Drishyam and Drishyam 2.

As the weekend approaches, many are curious whether the film will gain momentum and attract larger audiences. The success of Drishyam 3 could set the stage for future projects in the franchise and influence trends in the Malayalam film industry. With a mix of drama, suspense, and familiar faces, it promises to keep viewers engaged.

Overall, while Drishyam 3 may not have broken records on its first day, it has certainly made its mark, and all eyes will be on its performance in the coming days.
