Ajay Devgn’s Drishyam 3: The Conclusion has crossed ₹400 crore in worldwide gross collections in its first eight days, according to trade tracker Sacnilk, making it one of the biggest Hindi releases of the year and putting Devgn within reach of his own domestic record.

The film, which opened on 2 October, collected ₹14.50 crore net in India on its second Friday, 9 October, an 11.5% rise over the previous day. That took its eight-day India net total to ₹260 crore, The Week reported, citing Sacnilk. India gross stood at ₹312 crore and overseas at ₹95 crore, for a worldwide gross of ₹407 crore.

How the run has unfolded

  • Opening day: ₹62 crore net, which The Week described as the third-biggest opening day for a Hindi film. Outlook India reported a higher estimate of ₹66.75 crore.
  • Opening weekend (2–4 October): ₹176.50 crore net.
  • First Monday: ₹21 crore net, taking the total to ₹197.50 crore, while worldwide gross crossed ₹300 crore in four days, according to The Week.
  • Weekdays: between ₹13 crore and ₹15 crore net a day.

Records in sight

At ₹407 crore worldwide, the film has already passed the lifetime worldwide totals of Drishyam 2 (about ₹342 crore) and Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior (about ₹367.65 crore). Its next marker is Tanhaji’s India net total of ₹279.59 crore, Devgn’s highest domestic figure, which trade analysts expect it to overtake.

The franchise now has hits in two languages. Mohanlal’s Malayalam Drishyam 3, released in May, finished at ₹239.83 crore worldwide, according to The Week.

What to watch

A second weekend that holds above the first-week weekday average would confirm a long theatrical run and keep the film in cinemas through the rest of October. Its streaming premiere date has not been announced.
