Drishyam 3: Hindi vs Malayalam Box Office Battle Heats Up
15 Mar
Summary
- Hindi Drishyam 3 leads Malayalam version in BookMyShow interests.
- Malayalam Drishyam 3 boasts highest ever pre-release business for Mollywood.
- Both versions are set for theatrical releases later this year.
The Drishyam franchise is set for a significant year with the upcoming releases of its third installments in both Hindi and Malayalam. The Hindi version, starring Ajay Devgn, and the original Malayalam film, led by Mohanlal, are both projected for strong box office performances. As of March 15, 2026, the Hindi Drishyam 3 has garnered 13.6K+ interests on BookMyShow, surpassing the Malayalam version's 12.3K+ interests, indicating a lead for Ajay Devgn's film. This occurred with over six months remaining until the Hindi film's October 2 release.
The Malayalam Drishyam 3, directed by Jeethu Joseph, is scheduled for an April 2 release, with less than three weeks remaining. While its current interest on BookMyShow is considered underwhelming, an increase is anticipated as promotional activities commence. This original version has already achieved the highest pre-release business for a Malayalam film, marking it as a highly anticipated release.
Both films feature robust ensemble casts. The Hindi production includes notable actors like Tabu and Jaideep Ahlawat, while the Malayalam version sees returning cast members Meena, Ansiba Hassan, Esther Anil, and Asha Sharath. The anticipation for both cinematic events remains high as they prepare to hit theaters later in 2026.
