Drishyam 3: Director Outsmarts Audience Theories
4 Oct
Summary
- Director Abhishek Pathak aimed to surprise viewers with Drishyam 3.
- Tabu's character, Meera Deshmukh, drives the emotional core of the film.
- The writing team actively avoided fan theories for an unexpected plot.
In preparation for 'Drishyam 3: The Conclusion,' director Abhishek Pathak detailed the strategy to create an unexpected narrative. The filmmaking team consciously steered clear of popular fan theories to ensure the plot remained unpredictable for viewers who have long analyzed Vijay Salgaonkar's actions. Pathak stated the goal was to be "smarter than anyone in the theatre," focusing on an overlooked element for the twist.
Meera Deshmukh's emotional arc is pivotal to the film's conclusion, according to Pathak. Her years-long quest for answers regarding her son's death is explored, with the director ensuring her pursuit of justice doesn't render her a purely negative figure. Her approach to justice has evolved, moving beyond legalistic means to seek true closure.
The franchise installment brings back Ajay Devgn as Vijay Salgaonkar and features a cast including Shriya Saran, Tabu, and Ishita Dutta. With 'Drishyam 2' already a success, Pathak returns to direct this final chapter, aiming to provide a satisfying and surprising end to the popular crime-thriller series.
