Fans of the hit franchise can mark their calendars: Jeethu Joseph’s Drishyam 3, starring Mohanlal, now has an official release date. The actor took to social media on Wednesday to tease the highly anticipated third instalment, reprising his role as Georgekutty, the TV cable operator with a knack for keeping secrets. The Malayalam version is set to release months before its Hindi counterpart.

Mohanlal shares exciting teaser

In his announcement, Mohanlal wrote, “Years passed. The past didn’t. #Drishyam3 | Worldwide Release | April 2, 2026.” The accompanying video cleverly nods to iconic elements from the first two films, including a vintage television, a shovel, a submerged car, a cell phone, a yellow bag, a CCTV camera, and a script. The clip concludes with the official poster of Drishyam 3.
