Ajay Devgn's Drishyam: The Conclusion has opened with 174 crore rupees at the Indian box office across its first three days, the biggest opening weekend of the actor's career and the second biggest of 2026.

The Abhishek Pathak directorial earned 275 crore rupees worldwide in three days, according to the makers. Trade analysts note the film has already collected 2.6 times the lifetime earnings of the 2015 original Drishyam.

The numbers put it within striking distance of several landmarks. It is 66.54 crore rupees short of Drishyam 2's lifetime India total, and needs 27.6 crore rupees more to break into the franchise's all-time Top 10 opening weekends.

The strong start continues a good run for franchise cinema in 2026. The film's word of mouth has been solid, with family audiences turning out in force over the weekend.

Weekday holds will decide how far it goes. If the current trend continues, trade experts expect the film to cross the Drishyam 2 lifetime mark by the end of its second week, making it the highest-grossing entry in the series.
