Many expressed their anticipation in the comments, calling Drishyam one of the finest thriller franchises in Indian cinema. “Wow… super excited,” one fan wrote, while another questioned, “How on earth are the makers going to take it forward? You’ve got me intrigued!” The previous two films in the series were widely praised for their gripping storytelling, and expectations for the third installment are already sky-high.
Despite the enthusiasm surrounding Drishyam 3, Mohanlal recently admitted that creating a sequel of this magnitude is no easy task. In an interview with India Today, he called the third part a “big headache” for the director and the entire team. “It is not that easy to bring out a good sequel.

The Drishyam franchise has been a massive success, with Drishyam 2 receiving widespread critical acclaim.
