On December 22, the production team confirmed that Drishyam 3 will arrive in cinemas on October 2, 2026. Alongside the announcement, a brief teaser was released, offering audiences their first glimpse of Devgn’s evolved protagonist—more resolute, more guarded, and once again prepared to go to extraordinary lengths to protect his family. The film also stars Tabu, Shriya Saran, Rajat Kapoor, and other key cast members, continuing the ensemble that has defined the franchise’s gripping narrative.
The announcement comes after months of uncertainty surrounding the project. Originally, the teaser was expected to drop on October 2, 2025, aligning with the franchise’s tradition of Gandhi Jayanti releases. However, the plan was derailed due to creative and contractual disagreements between the Hindi production team, led by Kumar Mangat, and the original Malayalam creators—director Jeethu Joseph and producer Antony Perumbavoor. These issues led to a postponement, prompting speculation about the film’s future.
The uncertainty was later addressed by Ajay Devgn himself, who confirmed that the teaser and release details would be unveiled in December 2025. Staying true to that assurance, the makers have now revealed both, restoring momentum to a project that has been eagerly anticipated by fans of the suspense genre.
The teaser underscores the core strengths that have made the Drishyam series a standout—psychological tension, moral dilemmas, and a protagonist who confronts formidable challenges without resorting to brute force. Vijay Salgaonkar is shown navigating fresh adversities through calculated intelligence, unyielding determination, and an unwavering commitment to his family, setting the tone for what promises to be a tightly wound thriller.
With Drishyam 3 officially slated for a 2026 theatrical release, the announcement reaffirms the franchise’s enduring appeal and its place in contemporary Hindi cinema. As audiences brace for another chapter of twists and suspense, the film’s confirmation signals not just a continuation of a story, but a renewed benchmark for mainstream Indian thrillers driven by intellect rather than spectacle.
