After Drishyam, Malayalam Thriller Officer on Duty Shatters Records!

The Drishyam franchise continues to remain one of the biggest success stories in Indian cinema. The original Malayalam Drishyam, starring Mohanlal, became a cult classic, and its sequel Drishyam 2 further strengthened its legacy. The film’s Hindi remake, led by Ajay Devgn, turned into a massive blockbuster, crossing ₹340 crore worldwide. Meanwhile, Mohanlal’s Malayalam Drishyam films themselves crossed ₹200 crore globally, making the franchise a true pan-Indian phenomenon.

With this massive success, the makers have already confirmed that Drishyam 3 is in the works. Both the Malayalam and Hindi versions are expected to return with the final chapter of this gripping crime saga. Fans are eagerly waiting to see how the story of Georgekutty (Mohanlal) and Vijay Salgaonkar (Ajay Devgn) will conclude, promising yet another thrilling ride filled with unexpected twists.

While Drishyam made waves globally, Malayalam cinema has once again grabbed attention with its latest thriller, Officer on Duty. Starring Kunchacko Boban as CI Harishankar, the film follows a demoted police officer who stumbles upon a dangerous counterfeit jewelry racket. As he digs deeper, he finds himself caught in a web of crime that threatens his very survival. With powerful performances from Priyamani as Geetha, Jagadish as Chandrababu (a KSRTC conductor), and Vishak Nair as Christy Savio, the film has struck a chord with both critics and audiences.

Officer on Duty has already crossed ₹30 crore at the box office, proving once again that Malayalam thrillers have a dedicated fan base. Given its strong reception, talks of a possible sequel are already making rounds. With Drishyam and now Officer on Duty, Malayalam cinema’s grip on the thriller genre only seems to be getting stronger with each passing year.
