Mohanlal has officially wrapped the shoot of Drishyam 3, marking a major milestone in one of Indian cinema’s most successful film franchises. The actor shared a behind-the-scenes video to announce the completion, writing, “See you in cinemas!” The clip features glimpses from the set, candid moments with crew members, and a cake-cutting ceremony to celebrate the final day of filming.
The update has fuelled massive excitement among fans, especially since the makers have yet to announce the film’s release date. Comments poured in on Mohanlal’s post, with audiences expressing their anticipation for the next chapter in Georgekutty’s saga. The BTS video, however, sparked curiosity as several key actors, including Meena, Ansiba Hassan and Esther Anil — who play members of Georgekutty’s family — were not seen in the footage. Actor Siddique, who portrays Prabhakar, the husband of IPS officer Geeta Prabhakar, was present in the video.
Earlier, in a conversation with SCREEN, director Jeethu Joseph shed light on his approach to the third instalment. “I’ve created only one franchise so far, that’s Drishyam. Nonetheless, it’s an organic approach that I have used there,” he said. “That was the case with Part 2, and it will be the same with Drishyam 3.”
He added that building pressure to top the previous film isn’t part of his creative process. “People told me, ‘Drishyam 2’s script was amazing, and we expect something better than that.’ But I’m not consciously trying to write a ‘better-than-Drishyam 2’ script just for the sake of it. My focus is only on Georgekutty and his family, and on what could have happened in their lives over the six or seven years since Part 2.”

Meanwhile, the Hindi version starring Ajay Devgn is also in development. Jeethu Joseph has previously shared that the Malayalam version will release first — reportedly about two months before the Hindi adaptation hits theatres.
With the shoot now complete, anticipation is higher than ever as fans await the official release date and first look of Drishyam 3, which promises yet another gripping chapter in Georgekutty’s long-running battle to protect his family.
