One of the X users wrote, “Ajay Devgn’s #DrishyamTheConclusion FIRST HALF. Mohanlal’s #Drishyam3 FULL MOVIE. The REAL HERO till the interval is Jaideep Ahlawat. WHAT. AN. ACT. FREAKING CRAZY. And MAN is he doing INSANE stuff! The aggression, intensity and screen presence are just NEXT LEVEL. Honestly, Akshaye Khanna COULD NOT have pulled this off! And guess what? WE SAID THIS ON 9.9.26 (sic),” while another wrote, “The CLIMAX TWIST of Drishyam 3 is BETTER than Drishyam 1 and 2. The Setup and Tense Moments are better than both the movies combined. Watch it to Believe it (sic).”

A third user chimed in and wrote, “#Drishyam3Ajay Devgn is too good when it comes to intense roles. Jaideep Ahlawat is the perfect second lead. The screenplay is razor-sharp. The writing is masterful. The direction is great. This was the perfect way to conclude the series. What a ride! (sic).”

One X user pointed out that Akshaye Khanna missed out on a great role, adding that Jaideep Ahlawat had completely nailed the part. “Akshaye Khanna might have made several mistakes in his career. But leaving #Drishyam3 for whatever reason is perhaps the BIGGEST MISTAKE. What a role it was! Jaideep Ahlawat nailed it though,” the user wrote.

IndiaToday.in’s review of the film reads, “The twists and turns will impress you. The plotting will keep you engaged. There are moments when Vijay’s ability to manipulate the system remains as fascinating as ever. But when the final curtain comes down, you are left thinking: “Was that it?”

Drishyam 3: The Conclusion brings Devgn back as Vijay Salgaonkar, with Shriya Saran, Ishita Dutta, Tabu, Jaideep Ahlawat and Mrunal Jadhav in the cast. It is directed by Abhishek Pathak.

The film released in theatres on October 2.
