Corroboration: 2 independent outlets

Ajay Devgn's third Hindi Drishyam film has been officially named Drishyam 3: The Conclusion and will release in cinemas on October 2, 2026. The makers unveiled a poster featuring a close-up of Devgn's eye along with the tagline 'MERA SACH, MERA SAHI, SIRF MERI, FAMILY HAI.' The film is directed by Abhishek Pathak and also stars Tabu, Shriya Saran, Ishita Dutta, Rajat Kapoor, Kamlesh Sawant, Prakash Raj, and Jaideep Ahlawat. Produced by Panorama Studios and Star Studios, post-production is currently underway. The title has sparked curiosity because the Hindi franchise appears to be concluding with this third instalment, while the original Malayalam franchise has confirmed a fourth film. The Hindi version will not be a scene-by-scene adaptation of the original, with a different climax and key portions. Producer Antony Perumbavoor announced Drishyam 4 at the Mazhavil Manorama Awards, saying another chapter is certain. The Malayalam Drishyam 3, starring Mohanlal, released on May 21 and became a blockbuster.
