Pathan, directed by Abhishek Pathak was released on 2nd October 2026. The movie has breached the 190 crore in 4 days at the box office in India. Pathan has made its entry into the list of the biggest opening weekends of any Hindi film while it is already collected more than the lifetime collections of many recent movies.
But there is one difference. Drishyam: The Conclusion hasn’t become Ajay Devgn’s biggest hit of all time yet. It’s surpassed his opening day and opening weekend collections already and is closing in on Ajay’s biggest ever, but it needs to surpass the lifetime collections of Drishyam 2 and Tanhaji.
Drishyam 3 Opens With A Massive Number
Drishyam 2: The Conclusion is released in theatres on Friday 2nd October, a holiday due to Gandhi Jayanti.
Opening Day Collection Box Office The film has done a business of around 62 crore net on its opening day in India which makes it the biggest opening day for Ajay Devgn in his career till date.
‘The film then earned an earning of 53.50 crore on Saturday followed by 61 crore on Sunday.
The film has collected Rs. 176.50 crore, in the three days of its domestic run.
The global figure for the opening weekend was approximately 272-273 crore.
And keep in mind: This is a crime thriller, not an action movie.
Monday Holds Strong
Monday is more times than not the time for a sharp fall after a big opening weekend.
But Drishyam: The Conclusion remained strong.
CUMULATIVE TOTALS In India, the movie raked in an estimated Rs 17.03 crore net (approximately) on Monday, the fourth day in the country, thus bringing its domestic total to roughly Rs 193.53 crore.
The film continued to draw a little over 24 per cent occupancy across its 16,267 shows, the report said.
The Monday number implies the film is right now knocking on the door of 200 crore India net.
Yet another report of the film’s live figures had put its domestic total at approximately 178.78 crore, before the complete Monday figures had been reported, with its worldwide gross already at around 272.80 crore.
It Has Already Beaten Several Big Films
Drishyam 3 has gained such rapid pace that it has surpassed the lifetime figures of a handful of films in just its first weekend.
As reported by Hindustan Times, the film has crossed the worldwide lifetime collection of Raid 2, Bhooth Bangla and Sitaare Zameen Par.
In addition, Raid 2 collected approximately 243 crore at the global box office and Bhooth Bangla about 247 crore and Sitaare Zameen Par was about 266 crore.
Drishyam: The Conclusion crossed those figures in just three days.
It has also ranked this film as one of the most commercially successful releases of 2026.
Ajay Devgn’s Biggest Opening
The biggest personal record of Ajay Devgn is already set.
The 62 crore opening was Drishyam: The Conclusion’s highest opening day ever, higher than anything he opened with earlier, including Singham Again, which was previously his highest opening day with approximately 43 crore, as per report trade figures.
This record is especially noteworthy as Ajay has been associated with multiple popular franchises and blockbuster films over the years.
Hence, the response to Vijay Salgaonkar’s final story has now set the commercial box office for a bigger debut than most of his action movies.
But it Still Has Not Surpassed Its Revenue theMaximum
While the grand opening notwithstanding, it would be too early to say that Drishyam: The Conclusion has now emerged as Ajay Devgn’s highest grosser.
Two of the previous works of his which are still ahead of the present world records are as follows.
Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior collected around 367 crore at the global box office while Drishyam 2 collected around 347 crore at the global box office.
Drishyam: The Conclusion is at approximately 273 crore net after the first weekend.
Hence, it needs to have another great run to surpass Drishyam 2 and then Tanhaji.
This momentum seems to suggest this is a genuine possibility so far – but the true result will be how well the film does after the first week.
A Record-Breaking Franchise
This is a vital win for the franchise of Drishyam.
2015 saw the release of the first Hindi film, Drishyam 2 in 2022.
Both films highlighted Vijay Salgaonkar, an average family man who always knew how to be one step ahead of any police investigation.
This is the third film that concludes that story.
According to the makers, Drishyam: The Conclusion is the last instalment of the franchise in Hindi which makes this resounding opening bigger.
October 2 Again Becomes Important
The release date was fixed keeping in mind the significance of October 2 in Drishyam plot.
The story of the original film was Vijay’s elaborate alibi claimed what had he done on October 2.
It was this date that became one of the franchise’s most recognizable elements.
So, the filmmakers published the end film on October 2nd and was one other huge marketing level of the series.
The holiday on Gandhi Jayanti was also an instant boon for the film, with shows being full house during the first weekend.
Ajay Devgn Returns As Vijay Salgaonkar
Ajay is back as Vijay Salgaonkar, the focal point of the entire Hindi franchise so far.
On performance has been one of the major points of conversation for the film.
Vijay isn’t one of those regular action heroes, he takes his time to formulate plans and analyse police procedures.
That has been particularly effective for that character in a thriller franchise.
In the new film, the focus shifts to Vijay once again under investigation, new threats arise, and a host of old characters return.
Tabu, and Jaideep Ahlawat Stir Up The Conflict.
Tabu reprises her role as Meera Deshmukh, who has continued to have a close tie to Vijay.
Jaideep Ahlawat is also introduced as a new character in police.
Shriya Saran, Ishita Dutta and Rajat Kapoor will be seen reprising their roles from the previous chapters in the upcoming installment. Prakash Raj will also join them.
The return of some of the actors and the introduction of new characters have enabled the third to maintain continuity with the previous movies while also establishing a new point of tension.
Strong Audience And Critical Response
The film has been receiving positive reviews of its cast along with its box-office.
The Indian Express review of the film praised Ajay Devgn and Tabu and Jaideep Ahlawat performance has also been talked about a lot.
The ending of the film has sparked a lot of debate among viewers, in part because the filmmakers worked very hard to keep details of the ending under wraps before the film was released.
The authors have additionally disclosed that the screenplay went to a vast variety of versions, earlier than the entire story was settled.
The Film’s Worldwide Performance
The first-weekend worldwide total of about 272-273 crore is among the top openers of Ajay Devgn’s career already.
The majority of the film’s income was generated in India. During the first three days, foreign markets generated above $6 million as per trade figures cited by Hindustan Times.
That performance has also helped Drishyam: The Conclusion become one of the highest-grossing Indian movies of 2026 till now.
Next target on hit list is the 300 crore worldwide mark.
What The Film Needs To Turn Ajay’s Biggest Hit
The mathematics is straightforward.
The film has so far earned around 273 crore worldwide.
His two highest worldwide grossers till date are Drishyam 2 at 347 crore and Tanhaji at 367 crore.
