Overview
- Drishyam 3, which earned Rs 1.70 crore net on Day 18, lifted its India net to about Rs 106.43 crore and its worldwide gross to roughly Rs 234.97 crore.
- The film fell to around Rs 80 lakh on Day 16 during a midweek dip but recovered with a 62.5% jump to Rs 1.30 crore on Day 17 and a further 30.8% rise on Day 18.
- Overseas markets—notably the Gulf, Europe and North America—have contributed roughly Rs 111.5 crore and remain key to the film’s global haul.
- At its current pace the film is within a small margin of overtaking Vaazha 2’s lifetime worldwide total and has already closed in on other top Malayalam lifetime earners.
- Produced on a reported budget near Rs 50 crore, trade estimates place the film’s returns as strongly profitable (reports cite roughly 113% ROI), which could extend its theatrical run and boost franchise value.
