A Box Office India report stated, “The film (Drishyam 2) has got the sort of jump on Saturday that has even been a struggle for the smaller films which dont open. The growth on Saturday has been very difficult post the pandemic and its nowhere close to what was happening before but for Drishyam 2 its a totally different story.”
Meanwhile, the Abhishek Pathak directorial was released in theatres on Friday, November 18. The movie also stars Shriya Saran, Rajat Kapoor, Ishita Dutta and Mrunal Jadhav, reprising in their roles from the prequel.
