Drishyam 3: The final chapter is confirmed
Fans of the Drishyam franchise finally have a date to mark on their calendars. The makers released a gripping announcement video on Instagram, confirming that Drishyam 3 will arrive in cinemas on 2 October 2026. The caption for the clip read, “Aakhri hissa baaki hai (The final chapter remains),” sparking fresh excitement for the long-awaited conclusion.
What the announcement video showed
The short video brings Ajay Devgn back as Vijay Salgaonkar, delivering a powerful monologue about truth, family and resilience. Vijay insists that truth can mean different things to different people, but his one constant is his family — and he vows to never break. The speech is intercut with striking montages from the earlier films and new, teasing moments that promise the same layered storytelling, moral dilemmas and unexpected twists the series is known for.
Ajay’s earlier promise
Ajay Devgn had hinted at a December reveal during the trailer launch of De De Pyaar De 2, and the announcement fulfills that promise, giving fans a clear timeline for the franchise’s finale.
Cast, Malayalam wrap and parallel development
The Hindi version reunites Ajay Devgn with Tabu and features Shriya Saran, Ishita Dutta, Mrunal Jadhav, Kamlesh Sawant and Rajat Kapoor in key roles. Meanwhile, industry news confirms that Mohanlal has wrapped the Malayalam version of Drishyam 3, and both language versions appear to be moving ahead simultaneously.
What to expect
- Final showdown between Vijay Salgaonkar and IG Meera Deshmukh — emotional and intense confrontations are likely.
- More of the franchise’s signature moral puzzles, layered plotting and surprising twists.
- A theatrical finish to the saga that began in Drishyam (2015) and continued with Drishyam 2 (2022).
With the release date set and the core cast in place, anticipation for Drishyam 3 is building — and Bollywood thriller fans have just under a year to gear up for the final act.
