Director Abhishek Pathak Breaks Silence on Drishyam 4 After Film Crosses 500 Crore at Box Office

Suspense and thriller lovers are currently witnessing history at the box office as Ajay Devgn's 'Drishyam 3' continues its dream run. Crossing the coveted Rs 500 crore milestone globally within just 12 days of its theatrical release, the film has emerged as one of the biggest blockbusters of 2026. However, amidst massive fan demand for a continuation, director Abhishek Pathak has officially ruled out the possibility of a fourth part.

The Story Has Reached Its Natural Conclusion

In a recent interview, Abhishek Pathak opened up about the franchise's future, stating that the creative team firmly believes this is the final chapter. He remarked, 'Drishyam is not a franchise where we just greenlight another film because of commercial demand. The narrative has reached a brilliant and emotional conclusion. It serves as a love letter to the franchise, and we shouldn't ruin its perfect ending by stretching it unnecessarily.'

Unprecedented Box Office Dominance

According to trade reports, the crime thriller has amassed over Rs 501.80 crore globally, driven by a stellar domestic net collection of Rs 323.50 crore. After a massive Rs 62 crore opening day, the film sustained remarkable momentum through its second weekend, outperforming several big-ticket releases of the year and cementing its place as one of Ajay Devgn's most successful outings ever.

Star-Studded Cast and Industry Praise

Featuring an ensemble cast including Tabu, Shriya Saran, Ishita Dutta, and Jaideep Ahlawat alongside Ajay Devgn, the movie has received widespread critical acclaim. Malayalam cinema icon Mohanlal also praised the Hindi adaptation, commending the team for executing such a phenomenal conclusion to the iconic franchise.
