Mohanlal, the lead actor of the acclaimed *Drishyam* franchise, has officially announced that filming for *Drishyam 3* will commence on September 22. He shared this exciting news with the media a day after being honored with the prestigious Dadasaheb Phalke Award.
The Dadasaheb Phalke Award will be presented to Mohanlal at the 71st National Film Awards ceremony in New Delhi on September 23. This makes him only the second Malayali actor to receive this esteemed accolade, following legendary filmmaker Adoor Gopalakrishnan.
### Production Details and What to Expect
Mohanlal revealed that the production for *Drishyam 3* will begin with a traditional pooja ceremony. Following this, he plans to travel to New Delhi to attend the National Film Awards event.
The *Drishyam* franchise began in 2013, centered around the story of Georgekutty, a cable TV operator who goes to great lengths to protect his family after a crime. The sequel, *Drishyam 2*, released in 2021, continued this gripping narrative several years later.
Director Jeethu Joseph has previously hinted that *Drishyam 3* will be a natural continuation of Georgekutty’s story. Unlike the second installment, which featured a complex thriller format, the upcoming film is expected to adopt a different narrative style.
### Franchise Evolution and Global Reach
The *Drishyam* films have enjoyed tremendous success and have been remade across various Indian languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, and Kannada. The story has even been adapted into Chinese, making it one of the most widely remade Indian film franchises worldwide.
Mohanlal was last seen in the film *Hridayapoorvam* and continues to captivate audiences with his versatile performances.
