Drishyam 3 began its box office run on a phenomenal note. The family crime drama, directed by Jeethu Joseph, took an opening of Rs. 42.40 crore gross at the worldwide box office.

Of this, a huge chunk of Rs. 18.40 crore came from the domestic markets, while the international territories contributed nearly USD 2.50 million, which is Rs. 24 crore gross, as per Indian currency. This is the second biggest opening of all time for a Malayalam film at the global box office, only after L2: Empuraan.

Talking about its overseas performance, the Mohanlal starrer went all bonkers in the Middle East, where it grossed around USD 1.35 million. The movie also performed supremely well in the United Kingdom, raking in over USD 0.44 million. The Malayalam movie managed to collect around USD 0.42 million in North America, with Canada contributing around USD 0.12 million. The rest of the international markets made a sum of USD 0.29 million on its opening day.

Territory-Wise Overseas Box Office Collections of Drishyam 3 are as follows:

Area Box Office Middle East USD 1.35 million United States USD 0.30 million Canada USD 0.12 million United Kingdom USD 0.44 million Australia-New Zealand USD 0.19 million Rest USD 0.10 million Total Overseas USD 2.50 million

Drishyam 3 is undoubtedly one of the biggest bets of Malayalam cinema this year. The original film was an Industry Hit, while the second installment missed the theatrical release due to lockdown. However, the latest installment is there to fill all the void for its cult fanbase. Thus, the movie has huge potential to challenge the top grossers, both domestically and worldwide- Vaazha 2, Lokah Chapter One- Chandra, Thudarum, and others.

It will be interesting to see how the movie grows over the weekend and where it finally lands.
