‘Drishyam 3’ big update: Mohanlal-Jeethu Joseph crime drama set to start rolling

In a big update about Drishyam 3, the makers of the blockbuster Malayalam film franchise have announced that the third part is set to go on floors. Starring Mohanlal in the popular character Georgekutty, the movie will be directed by Jeethu Joseph, the filmmaker behind the first two parts (Drishyam and Drishyam 2).

Aashirwad Cinemas, owned by Antony Perumbavoor, took to social media to confirm that the film is ready to go on floors in October. The makers shared a video which showed Jeethu Joseph, Antony Perumbavoor and Mohanlal sharing a candid moment.

“October 2025, the camera turns back to Georgekutty. The past never stays silent,” said the post from Aashirwad Cinemas on X (formerly Twitter). The cast and crew of the film haven’t been announced yet.

Drishyam 2, the sequel to the 2013 blockbuster film, dropped directly on Amazon Prime Video on February 19, 2021. The film missed a theatrical release due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The franchise revolves around the central character Georgekutty, who goes any lengths to protect his family. In Drishyam 2, for the second straight time, Georgekutty ensures his innocent family escapes without being caught in a complex criminal case.
