Another audience member commented, “Superb first half, intense tension building & interval sequence So far much better than D2 FH.”One detailed reaction stated, “#Drishyam3 FIRST HALF The story takes a bit of a dramatic turn, but it really picks up at the break with something big happening.

I’m looking forward to seeing what else surprises us!”

Pitch perfect! #HappyBirthdayMohanlal.”Fans praised Mohanlal’s controlled performance as Georgekutty.
