The ‘Drishyam’ franchise has been an important part of the Indian pop cinema culture and has added to the growth of the thriller genre to the mainstream movies with its gripping storylines and mind-bending appeal. Directed by Jeethu Joseph and featuring Mohanlal as Georgekutty, ‘Drishyam’ was a mega hit during its release, and its sequel ‘Drishyam 2’ released during the pandemic on OTT was met with great success and popularity. Finally, after the jaw dropping developments of the last chapter, the third part in Georgekutty’s saga returns.
April 2 locked as global release date
The producers officially declared that ‘Drishyam 3’ will hit cinemas around the world on April 2 in order to mark the occasion of Vishu, which has created quite a stir in the Malayalam film industry. Mohanlal Nair has made the announcement through an extraordinary motion poster published on X (formerly Twitter), which is creating havoc amongst the fans. A chilling caption has also been included saying, “Years passed. The past didn’t.” This lines the murder and the set of complications that arose in the first two films. It seems that the consequences of the events have still not ended.
‘Drishyam 3’ produced on a massive scale
‘Drishyam 3’ is written and directed by Jeethu Joseph, who created the franchise, with Mohanlal reprising his role as Georgekutty. The movie will be produced by the studio that produced its predecessors, marking yet another collaborative effort between the actor and the studio.
‘Drishyam’ franchise that redefined Indian thrillers
For quite a while now, ‘Drishyam’ can be dubbed as the most landmark and landmark-breaking franchise of Indian cinema. Apart from breaking several box-office records, the film has received tremendous fanfare through the years and across the languages, being remade in several countries, and hence kept its fans waiting with bated breath. Even now, ‘Drishyam’ is one of the most widely discussed and interrogated thrillers, with its origins based on real-world inspirations, storytelling brilliance behind its ethical complexities, and a seemingly perfect screenplay. Having ‘Drishyam 3’ releasing soon on April 2, audiences are now very eager to untangle a plot that living in the past is never an option.
