The financial momentum of the film was apparent right out of the gate. Taking in ₹275 crore worldwide during its opening three-day weekend, Drishyam: The Conclusion showed immense drawing power. By its twelfth day in theaters—October 13—the global cumulative box office had reached ₹501.8 crore, or roughly $60 million. The domestic Indian market provided a solid anchor. Even when the second Monday saw a routine dip to ₹6 crore, the very next day saw a sharp recovery, posting ₹8.5 crore—a notable 41.7% day-over-day jump.

Theater owners across India maintained over 10,000 showings well into the second week. Late-night screenings hovered near 28% capacity, proving that audience interest was not fading quickly. These numbers eventually pushed the film's total global box office collections to a final ₹537.92 crore. Overseas markets contributed ₹114 crore to that sum, marking the first time an Ajay Devgn vehicle crossed the $10 million threshold internationally. The Hindi remake definitively surpassed the net record of its predecessor.

This success story was built on the foundation of the Malayalam original. Released earlier that same year on May 21, 2026, Jeethu Joseph's Drishyam 3 (subtitled The Past Never Stays Silent) concluded its own theatrical run with a worldwide gross of ₹237.70 crore. Starring Mohanlal alongside Meena and Asha Sharath, the original set a high bar for the suspense narrative before moving to digital streaming in the Philippines via Amazon Prime Video. Acknowledging the Hindi adaptation's massive run, Mohanlal extended his congratulations to the Devgn and Pathak team for delivering a fitting finale to a story cherished by audiences everywhere.
