About the ‘Drishyam’ Universe

The franchise began in 2013 with the Malayalam film ‘Drishyam’ starring Mohanlal. It tells the intense story of a simple man named Georgekutty, whose life turns upside down after a police officer’s son goes missing. The gripping narrative and emotional depth of the film earned it massive praise and led to remakes in several languages: Kannada (2014) with V. Ravichandran, Telugu with Venkatesh Daggubati, Tamil (2015) with Kamal Haasan, and the Hindi version with Ajay Devgn, which added its own unique flavor to the storyline. Now, as both Malayalam and Hindi fans await the next chapter, it’s clear that the third part will again aim to keep audiences guessing till the very end.
