New Delhi [India], October 3(ANI): Ajay Devgn’s ‘Drishyam 3: The Conclusion’ has opened to a strong response at the box office, earning Rs 62 crore on its first day in India, according to early estimates.
According to trade analyst, Taran Adarsh, the film, which brings back Devgn as Vijay Salgaonkar, has recorded the fourth-highest opening among films with a Day 1 collection of over Rs 50 crore, according to the figures shared.
‘Drishyam 3’ stands behind ‘Dhurandhar 2’, which opened with Rs 140 crore including previews, ‘Pushpa 2’ Hindi with Rs 72 crore, and ‘Jawan’ with Rs 65.50 crore.
