Jeethu Joseph raises legal warnings against Ajay Devgn’s Drishyam 3 makers for trying an early start before Mohanlal starrer

Mohanlal’s upcoming film Drishyam 3 is currently being developed with Jeethu Joseph set to direct once again. Although specifics about the production are still under wraps, the Malayalam movie director shared his strategy for delaying the makers of the Hindi remake from starting prematurely.

How did Jeethu Joseph prevent Ajay Devgn’s Drishyam 3 from being made before Mohanlal’s version?

To Mathrubhumi, Jeethu Joseph stated, “We’ve received requests to produce both Malayalam and Hindi versions simultaneously, but we haven’t finalized those details yet. At one point, there were proposals to launch in Hindi first, but after a suggestion that this might lead to legal issues, they withdrew their plans.

It has been rumored that the upcoming movie Drishyam 3, featuring Ajay Devgn, will start filming soon. But since Jeethu Joseph, the original director and writer of the film, is still working on the script, it’s expected that the Malayalam version will begin production from October this year.

What did Jeethu Joseph have to say about writing Drishyam 3 climax?

Director Jeethu Joseph recently visited a college to launch their Film and Drama Club. During his speech, he shared that he had completed writing the climax for Drishyam 3 the previous night, adding that he’s felt significant stress for quite some time.

Since the director is presently working on the creation of not one but two other films titled “Mirage” and “Valathu Vashathe Kallan”, he shared that he’s been rising early at 3:30 a.m. daily to pen down scenes for “Drishyam 3”.
