Drishyam 3: Who Plays What In Mohanlal's April Thriller

At the heart of the story is superstar Mohanlal, who returns as Georgekutty. Over the years, Georgekutty has become one of Indian cinema's most iconic characters. A simple cable TV operator who outsmarted the police to protect his family, Georgekutty's journey has kept audiences hooked since the first Drishyam, released in 2013. The film became a huge success and was later remade in several languages across India and even internationally.

Joining Mohanlal once again is Meena, who plays his wife Rani George. She is the emotional backbone of the family. Their daughters, Anju and Anu George, are played by Ansiba Hassan and Esther Anil. The four of them together form the core of the story, just like in the earlier films.

But it would not be Drishyam without the strong police characters. Asha Sharath returns as Geetha Prabhakar, the grieving mother who once sought justice for her missing son. Her husband, Prabhakar, is again played by Siddique. A powerful new presence in the story is Murali Gopy as IG Thomas Bastin IPS. His role is expected to add fresh tension and strategy to the investigation. Other key characters include CI Philip Mathew, played by K. B. Ganesh Kumar, Advocate Renuka, played by Santhi Mayadevi, and a judge portrayed by Manju Pillai.

The film is written and directed by Jeethu Joseph, who has guided the franchise from the beginning. Interestingly, the idea for Drishyam 3 came to him soon after finishing Drishyam 2. He once shared that the climax of the third part first formed in his mind. When Mohanlal asked him if another sequel was possible, Jeethu narrated the idea to him. Mohanlal liked it and encouraged him to develop it further.

Produced by Antony Perumbavoor under the banner of Aashirvad Cinemas, the film promises to be another gripping chapter. Shooting began in September 2025 and wrapped up in December 2025. Now, the film is in its final stages before release.
