Drishyam The Conclusion is proving that the buzz around the franchise is still alive and kicking, even after its opening day. Starring Ajay Devgn, the film is holding strong on its second day in India and is projected to wrap up the day with over Rs 50 crore nett.
The early figures are particularly promising, especially since the film launched during a major holiday, giving that first day a nice boost. While a drop was anticipated on the second day, the decline has been surprisingly limited. Current estimates indicate a drop of about 15 percent, which is a solid sign for a film that had such a massive opening.

Maharashtra remains one of the top markets for Drishyam The Conclusion, with collections there expected to be only around 5 percent lower than the opening day. Meanwhile, Karnataka is reportedly seeing an uptick. The northern and central Hindi markets have experienced a slightly larger dip, but the overall hold is still impressive, especially considering the holiday advantage on day one.

Sep 28, 2026Looking ahead, the film is expected to rake in around Rs 52 to 53 crore nett on Saturday, depending on how the evening and night shows go. This would bring its two-day total close to Rs 113 crore nett, a very healthy position for the third installment of the franchise.
Sunday could see another significant boost. The markets that experienced a bigger drop on Saturday are anticipated to bounce back with stronger weekend attendance, and the big goal now is to match those first-day numbers. If that happens, the film could finish its opening weekend with around Rs 175 crore nett.
What really spices up the hold is how the audience reacts. A big opening weekend can often be fueled by the excitement surrounding a franchise, but a solid second day usually tells a different tale. When people keep showing up after the first day, it indicates that the film has successfully captured their interest beyond just initial curiosity.
Of course, the true test will come once the weekend wraps up. Drishyam: The Conclusion has already positioned itself well, but how it performs during the weekdays will ultimately determine how far this run can go. For now, the numbers are clearly leaning in favor of Ajay Devgn and the film, and it looks like the third chapter is gearing up for a fantastic opening weekend.
