Drishyam 3: Is Telugu version of Mohanlal-starrer dominating Malayalam original in US?

It's Mohanlal's birthday today. As he turns 66, Georgekutty and family return once again. Jeethu Joseph's Drishyam 3 is all set to hit theatres today. For the unversed, both Drishyam, which had released in 2013, and Drishyam 2, which premiered on OTT in 2021, gave a massive positive reaction form the viewers. The curiosity over what exactly happens next to Georgekutty and his family is the key reason why the viewers have shown immense interest in the film's third instalment.

Telugu version of Mohanlal's film popular than Malayalam original in US?

The massive buzz around Drishyam 3 is getting bigger by the day. Interestingly, the interest in the film is high in the overseas market. According to a tweet, a netizen has shown how the Telugu version of the Mohanlal starrer is getting more attention and traction in the US when compared to the original Malayalam version. One of the key reason for this trend is the huge popularity of Telugu cinema in North America over the last few years. With films such as RRR, Pushpa: The Rise and Salaar becoming massive hits worldwide, Telugu audiences in the US have increased. Hence, dubbed Telugu versions of major South Indian films are also being lauded.

In a tweet that has gone viral, a netizen has posted "This is why people come to Hyderabad for movie promotions. As you can clearly see, the Telugu version of #Drishyam3 is dominating malayalam original in the USA."

Jeethu Joseph admits to this 'mistake' in Drishyam 3

According to Joseph, the main idea of the story was "whose side would you take" after getting to know that both families are right and wrong in situations. According to the director, watchers came to offer sympathy to Georgekutty and his family, and not mother Geetha. This, according to Joseph said, happened because he failed to maintain balance in the narrative. "After watching the movie, I realised I had made a mistake because that balancing didn't happen. Everyone stood firmly with Georgekutty and his family. If you think about it, can we really blame Geetha Prabhakar? Her son has gone missing, and she is desperately trying to uncover the truth. From her perspective, Georgekutty is manipulating everything. How could she tolerate that? Her son never confessed his wrongdoing to her, so she still isn't ready to believe what actually happened. As a mother, she does not know the truth. That was the original spark behind Drishyam," Joseph said.

Kangana Ranaut REACTS to Twisha Sharma death: 'Society abandons daughters after marriage'

Kangana Ranaut's not holding back. After Twisha Sharma's death in Bhopal stirred up outrage over dowry harassment, Kangana, actress and BJP MP jumped in to share her thoughts. She told young women: build your career first. Don't rush into marriage, especially if you're not financially independent. On Instagram Stories, Kangana put it plainly. She said every day, she's seeing new cases of married women in trouble, sometimes women who've studied, but now find themselves asking their parents to help them escape abusive homes."Indian society doesn't hesitate to abandon daughters once they're married," Kangana wrote.

What Was Her Advice?

Stop letting social media, wedding trends, or beauty fads dictate your life. "A woman's career matters more than anything," she said. If you want to get married, do it only after you can stand on your own two feet, financially. Kangana left a strong message: "See yourself as your own hero. No one else is coming to save you. What you do, and who you become, that's what counts, not who you marry. Build the life you really want."

Twisha Sharma's story is gut-wrenching. She was found dead at her in-laws' house in Bhopal's Katara Hills on May 12, just five months after her wedding. Her family says she was mentally and physically tortured for do ry. At first, police said it was suicide. But when her family spoke up, they filed a case against Twisha's husband Samarth Singh and his mother for harassment and abetment. Samarth hasn't been seen since. Right before she died, Twisha texted her mom: "Maa, please come take me away tomorrow." She called her life "narak" hell. She told a friend about the harassment.

Her in-laws say that's not true. They claim Twisha was struggling with psychiatric issues and was getting treatment. Twisha wasn't just anyone. She used to be Miss Pune, acted in films like Mugguru Monagallu and Zara Sambhal Kay, then left acting behind to get her MBA and join the corporate world.
