Drishyam 3 Review
The Free Press Journal review gave 3.5 stars to Drishyam 3 and wrote, "Drishyam 3 may not surpass the ingenious precision of its predecessor, but it understands the tragic burden of living inside one’s own alibi. The film succeeds because it recognises that secrets do not disappear with time. They simply become family traditions."

Drishyam 3 is expected to take a bumper opening at the box office. But, it will be interesting to see whether it will beat the opening records of L2: Empuraan, which had minted Rs. 68-70 crore gross worldwide on its first day.
