Drishyam 3 Day 6 Box Office: Mohanlal's film becomes the second-fastest 50 Crore Kerala grosser, trailing only L2: Empuraan

BY SACNILK

Mohanlal is back in his most iconic role, and the box office numbers suggest that Drishyam 3 is finding plenty of oxygen to sustain its theatrical run. On its first Tuesday, which marks Day 6, the film collected a net of 6.45 Cr across India. This represents a logical 16.2 percent drop from Monday, which saw 7.70 Cr. While big-budget sequels often see a sharper decline after the opening weekend, this Tuesday collection indicates a steady hold for the film. With 4,668 shows running nationwide, the total India net collection has now reached a strong 68.60 Cr. The Malayalam version remains the heavy lifter, contributing 5.50 Cr to the Tuesday net. This performance has earned the film a spot among the elite performers in Mollywood history. While the film is performing well across all South Indian states, the core strength remains in its home territory. To give you some perspective on its domestic dominance, here is how the 6-day net collections for the Malayalam version compare with other recent blockbusters: Mollywood First 6 Days Highest Collection Movie (Net)RANKMOVIE NAMEFIRST 6 DAYS NET (MALAYALAM)1L2: Empuraan₹ 71.90 Cr2Drishyam 3 (Malayalam)₹ 59.05 Cr3Thudarum₹ 43.49 Cr4Vaazha 2: Biopic of a Billion Bros₹ 40.20 Cr5Aadujeevitham - The Goat Life₹ 34.77 Cr (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Kerala remains the primary engine for the film, contributing a gross of 50.95 Cr in just six days. This makes Drishyam 3 the second fastest film to hit the 50 Crore mark in the state, sitting just behind L2: Empuraan which reached the milestone in 5 days, and ahead of both Thudarum and Vaazha 2 which took 8 days. Karnataka has also added significant moolah to the kitty, crossing the 10 Crore milestone with a 10.28 Cr gross. With APTG bringing in 7.00 Cr and Tamil Nadu adding 6.35 Cr, the total India gross has reached a solid 79.62 Cr before completing its first week. Breaking into the second spot on the 6-day chart is a massive win for the franchise. However, if we look strictly at the first Tuesday earnings, the film faces stiff competition. With a net of 5.50 Cr for the Malayalam version on Tuesday, it currently sits at the fifth spot on the list of highest 1st Tuesday earners in Mollywood, trailing behind films like L2: Empuraan and Vaazha 2.

The night shows in these cities were particularly busy, peaking at 79 percent and 76 percent respectively. Trivandrum also saw a solid overall occupancy of 42.8 percent, with night shows climbing to 64 percent. In satellite markets, Bengaluru recorded 13.3 percent overall occupancy, while Mumbai and Chennai saw 17 percent and 22.3 percent. The Tamil version saw healthy traction in Chennai with a 30 percent overall occupancy, followed by Coimbatore at 25 percent. In the Telugu markets, Hyderabad and Vizag recorded occupancies of 13.3 percent and 12.5 percent, while the Kannada version saw a standout performance in Hubballi with 32.3 percent occupancy. National multiplex chains confirm that Drishyam 3 is currently the top-selling movie in that segment. On its first Tuesday, the film added approximately 32.7 Lakhs to its gross kitty from around 15,400 tickets sold. PVR was the primary driver here, contributing roughly 21.7 Lakhs, while INOX and Cinepolis added approximately 5.6 Lakhs and 5.4 Lakhs respectively. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The ticket sales on BookMyShow further highlight the consistent interest. On Tuesday, the platform recorded 221.81K ticket sales, taking the total sales on the app to over 27.45 Lakhs. Since 2024, this puts Drishyam 3 at the fourth spot for highest 1st Tuesday sales on the platform, just behind Thudarum. On the global front, the film is raking in serious moolah. The overseas gross added another 6.00 Cr on Day 6, taking the total overseas kitty to 90.70 Cr. According to reports from Venky Box Office, the film earned 168K Dollars on Monday in North America, pushing its total there to 1.64 Million Dollars. Down under, the film's theatrical run is seeing massive traction in the Oceania region, with total earnings comfortably exceeding A$850K in Australia and over NZ$240K in New Zealand within its first six days.. With a total show count of 30,199 to date, Drishyam 3 is well on its way to setting new benchmarks for the Malayalam industry.

May 2026 Box Office Report: Regional Cinema Dominates With Kruppu, Drishyam 3, Raja Shivaji Amid Bollywood's Underwhelming Performance

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, May 27 - May 2026 turned out to be one of the most successful months for the Indian box office, with at least three major theatrical wins across the film industry. While the Tamil and Malayalam film industries continued their solid run through Karuppu and Drishyam 3, respectively, the biggest surprise came from Marathi cinema as Deool Band 2 emerged as an unexpected blockbuster, amid the underperforming Bollywood titles. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Karuppu and Drishyam 3's Blockbuster Run Suriya's Karuppu turned out to be a massive commercial success for Tamil cinema. Directed by RJ Balaji, the action drama shattered every major career record for Suriya and maintained extraordinary momentum throughout the month. Released on May 15, the film has crossed 250 crores worldwide in just 12 days so far, also earning more than 2x of Suriya's previous biggest grosser, Singam 2. The film has performed exceptionally well in Tamil Nadu with 120+ crores gross so far, while also drawing strong support from the rest of the domestic and overseas audiences. Meanwhile, Mohanlal's Drishyam 3 once again showcased the power of one of Indian cinema's most celebrated thriller franchises. Directed by Jeethu Joseph, the film opened to phenomenal numbers and continued its solid run across domestic and overseas markets despite mixed reception. Kerala led the charge on the domestic front, but the overseas market is once again proving to be a major contributor for a Malayalam title. In just 6 days so far, the film has minted around 170 crores worldwide, including around 90 crores overseas collection. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Marathi Cinema Wins Big With Raja Shivaji's and Deool Band 2 Marathi cinema has emerged as a major winner this month with the blockbuster run of Raja Shivaji, and an unexpected success in Deool Band 2. Directed by and starring Riteish Deshmukh, Raja Shivaji scripted history by emerging as the highest-grossing Marathi film of all-time, beating Sairat's 110 crores record, which stood for nearly 10 years. Released on May 1st, the historical epic has grossed over 114 crores worldwide in 26 days so far. Meanwhile, devotional drama, Deool Band 2, scored the limelight by delivering a surprise success. After a 2.90 crore gross opening, the film witnessed solid growth over the weekend due to positive word of mouth and showed remarkable consistency on weekdays. In 6 days so far, the film has minted 26.50 crores gross, and is marching towards 50 crores, which is a blockbuster for the film of its scale. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Bollywood Underperforms With Pati Patni Aur Woh Do and Chand Mera Dil In contrast to the regional dominance, May 2026 also witnessed disappointments in Hindi cinema. Films like Pati Patni Aur Woh Do and Chand Mera Dil failed to generate the theatrical momentum the industry had expected. Pati Patni Aur Woh Do struggled to attract audiences despite being a sequel. The film opened to underwhelming occupancies and failed to show significant growth over the weekend. While PPAWD has managed to cross 50 crores worldwide, the overall total remains low considering the scale and expectations. Similarly, romantic drama Chand Mera Dil also failed to capitalise on its urban appeal and music-driven promotions. After failing to score a decent opening, the film hasn't shown the momentum required for a rebound. It has grossed around 21 crores so far in 5 days, which is a poor collection.

Drishyam 3 Box Office: Mohanlal Delivered His Third 150 Crore Grosser and 10th Malayalam Film To Do So

BY SACNILK

Kochi, May 26 - Megastar Mohanlal's crime suspense thriller Drishyam 3 has topped the 150 crores milestone at the worldwide box office after a good hold on its first working day. Despite mixed reviews, the film continues to benefit from the franchise's legacy to pull in solid numbers. According to estimates, Drishyam 3 collected over 8.50+ crores gross on its first Monday at the domestic box office, which took its total gross to around 71.75+ crores in India in 5 days. The film witnessed a drop of around 50% from its Thursday opening day, and just around 30% from Friday, which is a solid hold for a film with mixed reception. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) At the overseas box office, Jeethu Joseph's directorial has grossed an estimated 84 crores so far, pushing the total worldwide collection to around 155 crores in 5 days. With this, it has become the second Malayalam film of 2026, and the third for superstar Mohanlal to achieve the feat after Thudarum and Empuraan.After just five days of its box office run, the third instalment in the blockbuster franchise has become the 8th highest-grossing Malayalam film of all time. The film is expected to enter the 200 crores club during the second weekend to become the sixth Mollywood title to do so. As reported earlier, the box office trajectory of Drishyam 3 is pretty much similar to Mohanlal's L2: Empuraan. Both films carry a similar perception among the audience, but benefited largely from franchise value and star power. Empuraan finished its theatrical run with 265+ crores gross after the monstrous opening weekend collection of around 175 crores.

Top 5 Box Office Weekend Grossers (May 22-24): Drishyam 3, Karuppu, and Deool Band 2 Dominate As Chand Mera Dil Underperforms

BY SACNILK

Mumbai, May 25 - The Indian box office was heavily tilted towards regional cinema during the May 22-24 weekend, with the strong debut Malayalam blockbuster Drishyam 3 and Marathi film Deool Band 2, as regional films comfortably outperformed Bollywood releases for the second weekend in a row. On top of that, Suriya's Karuppu continued to attract strong footfalls in the second weekend, also after the blockbuster opening frame. Drishyam 3 Continues Franchise Legacy With Blockbuster Debut (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The third instalment in director Jeethu Joseph's crime thriller franchise once again stayed true to the franchise legacy after an excellent opening weekend at the Indian box office. After the huge opening day upon its Thursday release, Drishyam 3 continued its phenomenal run across Kerala and other domestic markets over the weekend despite mixed word of mouth. Drishyam 3 continued to benefit from the franchise value as Drishyam 3 is easily the biggest film series to come out of Malayalam cinema. It scored the second biggest opening day, followed by the second biggest weekend for a Malayalam trend, and advances for Monday indicate that the film is up for a solid run, especially in Kerala. Karuppu Maintains Excellent Momentum (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Suriya's fantasy action drama Karuppu remained the top choice at the Tamil Nadu box office for the second weekend in a row, after scoring one of the biggest 2nd weekend for a Tamil film. Backed by excellent audience response, the movie continued its successful theatrical journey and moved closer to new worldwide milestones. During the weekend, RJ Balaji's directorial entered the 100 crores gross club in Tamil Nadu, making it the first instance for a Suriya-starrer, thus creating history for the actor. It also went past 200 crores gross at the global box office, which is also the first time for the Singam actor, as the film continues to reach new milestones. Deool Band 2 Emerges As A Surprise Winner (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) The Marathi devotional drama Deool Band 2 sustained its superb trend at the box office with excellent occupancy in Maharashtra in the first weekend. Family audiences continued to support the film in large numbers, helping it dominate several centres despite competition from bigger releases.

Chand Mera Dil Underperforms As Pati Patni Aur Woh Do Holds Steady Dharma Production's romantic drama, Chand Mera Dil, starring Lakshya and Ananya Panday, failed to generate the expected theatrical momentum. Despite a decent, visible promotional campaign, the film struggled against the dominance of regional cinema due to mixed word of mouth. Although there was some improvement over the weekend, the overall box office performance remained below expectations. Ayushmann Khurrana's romantic-comedy entertainer, Pati Patni Aur Woh Do managed to maintain a decent hold on low levels during the weekend, especially in multiplex-heavy urban centres.

Drishyam 3 Box Office: Mohanlal Starrer Going Empuraan Way Amid Contrasting Trend Domestically and Overseas

BY SACNILK

Kochi, May 25 - Superstar Mohanlal's Drishyam 3 is witnessing a fascinating box office trend as the crime suspense thriller continues its impressive theatrical run worldwide. Directed by Jeethu Joseph, the film had a huge extended 4-day weekend globally with around 140 crore gross (with estimated overseas), but its performance pattern is now drawing comparisons with Mohanlal's earlier blockbuster L2: Empuraan. While expectations were sky-high for Drishyam 3 to emerge as Malayalam cinema's second 300 crore grosser after Lokah Chapter 1, the latest trends suggest that the milestone may not be as straightforward despite the massive opening weekend numbers. The film has maintained a strong overall overseas total, but the momentum internationally has started showing signs of flattening after the massive initial rush. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Markets in the Gulf, North America, the UK, and Australia delivered excellent opening numbers, driven by franchise hype and huge anticipation surrounding Mohanlal's return as Georgekutty. However, the day-to-day trend overseas has remained relatively flat over the weekend with a drop on Sunday, indicating that sustaining the extraordinary pace required for a 300 crore worldwide finish could become challenging from this point onward. In contrast, the domestic box office trend has been far more encouraging. Drishyam 3 recorded healthy growth over the weekend in India after an expected drop on Friday, especially in Kerala, where the audience response remains solid. The thriller is also showing strong advance bookings for Monday, suggesting that the film may enjoy a stable weekday run in its home state despite mixed-to-polarising reactions from certain sections of viewers. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Interestingly, this contrasting domestic and overseas trend mirrors the pattern seen during Empuraan's theatrical run last year. It was the film which was seen as Mohanlal's biggest bet for a 300 crores grosser, especially after a weekend of around 175 crores. While the film still managed to gross over 265 crores worldwide, it failed to achieve one of the most desired box office numbers in Malayalam cinema over the last year, due to mixed word of mouth. A similar trend is visible in Drishyam 3's box office trajectory. While the film has still managed to ensure strong global opening weekend numbers despite divided word-of-mouth, Mohanlal's star power and the franchise value have, the coming weekdays will now be crucial in determining whether Drishyam 3 can regain momentum internationally while maintaining its strong hold domestically.

Patriot OTT Release Date: When and Where to Stream the Mammootty-Mohanlal Spy Thriller

BY SACNILK

Despite the massive hype surrounding the historic reunion of Mollywood's twin towers, Mammootty and Mohanlal, their latest high-octane collaboration has failed to set the cash registers ringing as expected. Patriot, directed by Mahesh Narayanan, arrived in theaters with the burden of colossal expectations and an equally massive budget, reported to be in the range of ₹125 to ₹140 crore. While the film served as a visual treat for fans, it struggled to convert that excitement into a healthy theatrical run, ultimately finding it difficult to recover the significant moolah invested in its production. Where and when to stream Patriot on OTT? With the theatrical window coming to a close and the film failing to sustain momentum at the ticket windows, the makers have moved quickly to finalize its digital premiere. Patriot is officially scheduled to stream on OTT starting June 5, 2026. The digital streaming rights were bagged by ZEE5, which plans to release the film in its original Malayalam version alongside dubbed versions in Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Hindi. While the film may have faced a commercial setback in theaters, the June 5 premiere on ZEE5 offers a chance for the spy thriller to find a larger audience across the country on the small screen. What is the story of Patriot? The film is a sophisticated spy thriller set against a backdrop of international espionage and internal political betrayal. The narrative follows Vikramadithyan (Mohanlal), a seasoned high-ranking RAW agent who has gone off the grid following a failed mission in Europe. He is forced out of hiding when a series of coordinated cyber-attacks and assassinations threaten to destabilize the Indian government from within. Enter Chief Minister Raghavan (Mammootty), a veteran politician known for his uncompromising ethics and iron-fisted governance. Realizing that the threat isn't just external but involves a mole in his own cabinet, Raghavan enlists Vikramadithyan to weed out the global syndicate. The film was noted for its technical brilliance and the rare opportunity to see the two legends sharing the frame in a modern political setting. Analyzing the commercial data, the numbers fall short of the heavy lifting required for such a high-budget project. By the end of its run, Patriot managed to pull in just over ₹80 crore at the worldwide box office. While the film saw a decent contribution from the overseas kitty, with international markets adding over ₹43 crore, the domestic performance was notably soft. The India gross collection struggled to cross the ₹37 crore mark. For a film produced on a staggering budget of ₹125+ crore, these totals represent a significant disappointment, as the theatrical returns didn't come close to covering the production costs, leaving the film in the red. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) Patriot: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) Is Patriot a hit or a flop? Patriot is a Box Office Disappointment. Despite grossing over ₹80 Cr worldwide, the film failed to break even due to its massive reported budget of ₹125–₹140 crore, leading to losses for the stakeholders. Where to stream Patriot on OTT? The film will be available for streaming exclusively on ZEE5 in Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Hindi. Who are the lead actors in Patriot? The film features the iconic duo of Mammootty and Mohanlal in lead roles, marking their first full-length collaboration in years. What is the OTT release date for Patriot? The confirmed OTT release date for Patriot is June 5, 2026, on the ZEE5 platform.

Kerala remains the biggest domestic contributor as expected, with 8.50 crore in pre-sales, which is among the strongest booking performances ever for a film in the state.

In Kerala, the weekend pre-sales for the stand finished at 13.50 crore, while the rest of India sales closed at 5 crore. Overseas bookings have been sensational at $3+ million (29.50 crore) with the total worldwide advance sales for the weekend clocking 48 crores, which is massive. The extraordinary weekend figures indicate that audience interest is extending far beyond just the opening day. Industry observers believe the thriller is set for packed occupancy throughout the weekend, especially if word-of-mouth remains positive after the first shows. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}) 50 Crore Worldwide Opening Looks Likely With advance sales already crossing 35 crore globally for day one, the film is now expected to challenge the 50 crore worldwide opening milestone through spot bookings and walk-in ticket sales. It was already locked to score the second biggest start for a Malayalam film after the initial response in pre-sales, and was looking to take the opening in the range of 40 crores, but now, it is eyeing much bigger numbers. The film carries enormous expectations due to the popularity of the previous two instalments, both of which became landmark successes (the second film was a direct OTT release) and earned cult status among audiences. The return of Georgekutty has particularly fueled fan excitement, with social media already flooded with discussions, fan celebrations, and early reactions from premiere screenings.
