Drishyam 3 Box Office Collection Day 15: Ajay Devgn Film Crosses ₹335 Crore, Slows Down as Rajinikanth's Jailer 2 Craze Takes Over
Drishyam 3 box office collection day 15: Vijay Salgaonkar's gripping tale has undoubtedly been one of the biggest cinematic triumphs of the year. However, the blockbuster juggernaut has finally encountered a major speedbump with the arrival of Rajinikanth’s massive box office event, Jailer 2.
While Ajay Devgn’s suspense thriller enjoyed a record-breaking theatrical run earlier this month, its momentum has cooled down significantly entering its third week.
Jailer 2 Craze Overshadows Drishyam 3’s Third Week Momentum
Rajinikanth’s Jailer 2 landed in theatres with immense fanfare, delivering a phenomenal opening week response nationwide. Following a staggering start, the superstar-led actioner sustained its high-octane run, minting over ₹30 crore on its first Friday.
In contrast, Drishyam 3: The Conclusion witnessed a sharp deceleration, pulling in around ₹2.52 crore to ₹3 crore on its third Friday. This marks the lowest single-day collection for the psychological thriller since its premiere, signaling a shift in audience footfalls toward the new box office giant.
A Historic Box Office Journey for Ajay Devgn
Despite the recent slowdown, Drishyam 3 has already etched its name in the history books. Setting new benchmarks for Ajay Devgn, the film opened with a massive pre-release advance booking of ₹27 crore before setting the ticket counters ablaze with a monumental ₹66.75 crore net opening day across India.
Week 1 Collection: The film closed its first week with an extraordinary ₹245.50 crore net.
Week 2 Collection: Sustaining strong word-of-mouth, the second week added another ₹87.50 crore net to its tally.
Total Domestic Net: Bringing its cumulative domestic collections comfortably past the ₹335 crore milestone.
Cast, Crew, and Franchise Legacy
Directed by Abhishek Pathak and co-written by Aamil Keeyan Khan and Parveez Shaikh, Drishyam 3 brings back the iconic ensemble cast that fans have grown to love. Alongside Ajay Devgn as Vijay Salgaonkar, the film features power-packed performances from Tabu, Shriya Saran, Rajat Kapoor, Ishita Dutta, Mrunal Jadhav, and Kamlesh Sawant, with Saurabh Shukla reprising his pivotal cameo role. Backed by Star Studio18 and Panorama Studios, the movie is produced by Alok Jain, Ajit Andhare, Kumar Mangat Pathak, and Abhishek Pathak.
The Hindi adaptation franchise—which originally kicked off in 2015 as a remake of Mohanlal’s Malayalam cult classic—has scaled unprecedented heights. While the first part grossed ₹110 crore worldwide, Drishyam 2 (2022) shattered records with a ₹342 crore global gross, paving the way for The Conclusion to push global milestones past the ₹500 crore mark.
