I had problems in one particular area in the film. Similarly, I am stuck in cracking a certain area in Drishyam 3. I know how to end the movie, but I’m clueless about other areas.” He further revealed that he has also narrated his ideation surrounding Drishyam 3 to Mohanlal.
Jeetu Joseph further said, “The climax of Drishyam 3 is already in my head. I narrated it to Mohanlal sir and he liked it as well. But, I want to crack that one area.” The Drishyam franchise revolves around the central protagonist Georgekutty who strives to go to any lengths to safeguard his family.
The Drishyam franchise was remade in Hindi, with Ajay Devgn as the lead. Both the Hindi versions of Drishyam (2015) and Drishyam 2 (2022) were declared a hit by the audience and critics alike. The Malayalam version of the franchise also stars Meena, Ansiba Hassan, and Esther Anil in the lead roles. The movie was also remade in Telugu, Kannada and Tamil. These remakes starred Venkatesh, Ravichandran, and Kamal Haasan, respectively. Well, we are hoping that Mohanlal will soon be back in a fierce avatar in Drishyam 3.
