The theatrical arena witnessed contrasting fortunes on the first Monday of October 2026, as superstar Ajay Devgn’s “Drishyam 3: The Conclusion” maintained its blockbuster hold across theaters, racing within arm’s reach of the elite ₹200 crore net mark in India. Releasing over the Gandhi Jayanti weekend on October 2, 2026, the suspense franchise maintained firm audience footfalls despite a typical weekday decline, gathering impressive receipts to breach the ₹300 crore gross barrier worldwide in just four days. On the flip side, director Deepak Mishra’s creature-thriller “Vvaan: Force of the Forrest”, starring Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia, entered its second Monday facing severe theatrical fatigue, failing to mount a comeback and slipping beneath the single-crore mark.
