Holding Ground Against Drishyam 3

Drishyam 3 has taken a large share of screens since its release, yet Hanuman Ansh has continued to earn. Its steady weekday collections point to a loyal audience that found the film through word of mouth, following a slow start in which it earned only ₹40 lakh in its first two weeks.

What Comes Next: A Trilogy

Directed by Vishal Chaturvedi, the film is being expanded into a trilogy. The first part follows Neem Karoli Baba’s journey from childhood to attaining spiritual powers. The second will cover his journey to Kainchi Dham, and the third will explore his devotees. Audiences are also waiting for the film’s OTT release, though no date has been announced.

Why This Run Matters

A film that crossed ₹400 crore on a ₹2 crore budget is already a rare commercial story. Its staying power into a ninth week suggests that devotional and emotionally driven content can build a lasting audience outside the usual star-and-spectacle model. The announced trilogy will test whether that appeal carries into the sequels.
