The makers of Drishyam 3 are set to move ahead with production despite the recent controversy surrounding Akshaye Khanna’s reported exit from the project. Lead actors Ajay Devgn and Tabu are scheduled to begin a major shooting schedule in Goa in January.
According to industry sources, the upcoming Goa leg will mark an important phase of the film’s production and is expected to run for several weeks. The schedule will feature key portions of the narrative and will include other principal cast members from the franchise. The development comes at a time when Drishyam 3 has been in the news due to reports of Akshaye Khanna stepping away from the project following discussions related to his role.
While details surrounding the exit remain undisclosed by the makers, the production team has chosen to push ahead without delay, signalling confidence in the project’s timeline. Those associated with the film have indicated that the controversy will not impact the overall schedule or the film’s planned release.
Directed by Abhishek Pathak, Drishyam 3 is the next instalment in the successful thriller franchise that has previously delivered strong box office performances and critical acclaim. Ajay Devgn reprises his role as Vijay Salgaonkar, while Tabu returns as IG Meera Deshmukh, continuing the intense cat-and-mouse dynamic that has defined the series.
With the Goa schedule locked in, Drishyam 3 remains firmly on track, even as casting developments continue to draw attention. Fans of the franchise are now looking forward to further updates as filming progresses in the coming months.
