Drishyam 3 worldwide box office collection day 3: After a record-breaking start on Friday, Ajay Devgn’s Drishyam: The Conclusion jas continued its rampage over the remaining weekend. The film soared past several milestones in its first three days, stopping just short of the ₹300-crore mark. The film is already among the highest-grossing Indian films of 2026, and it still hasn’t even seen its first Monday in theatres yet. If it gets a solid first week, Drishyam 3 will climb higher on that list very quickly.
