The much-awaited sequel Drishyam 3 has once again grabbed headlines, this time because of its planned release date. The film, starring Mohanlal and Meena, is currently scheduled to hit the big screens on April 2. However, the timing of the release has sparked fresh discussions in trade circles.
The reason behind the debate is the upcoming elections in Kerala, which are set to take place on April 9. With the election campaign expected to reach its peak during the first week of April, industry insiders feel the political atmosphere could affect the film’s promotions and theatrical business.
Drishyam 3 is easily one of the most awaited films in Malayalam cinema, as it continues the gripping story of Georgekutty that began with the blockbuster franchise. Fans have been eagerly waiting to see how the third part unfolds and what new twists the makers have planned this time.
However, releasing the film just days before the election might divide public attention, as political campaigns and media coverage will dominate the state during that period. Because of this, some trade analysts believe the makers might consider postponing the release to a later date.
Whether the producers will stick to the announced release date or shift it to avoid the election buzz remains to be seen. Meanwhile, the Telugu version of the sam film will feature and is yet to go on floors.
