DRISHYAM 2 did excellent business in its fifth weekend collecting around 5 crore nett despite the competition from AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER which has taken the film to 215 crore nett. The drop is only 60% from last weekend which is again fantastic considering the competition.

DRISHYAM 2 continues to record extraordinary collections in many areas with places like Maharashtra Gujarat and CP, CI seeing collections in week five which are better than the likes of DANGAL and KABIR SINGH. The film is now certain to cross 90 crore nett in Mumbai which means higher numbers than BAJRANGI BHAIJAAN, KABIR SINGH and SULTAN in this circuit.

The film will face further competition this week with CIRKUS and it is the release of AVATAR: THE WAY OF WATER and CIRKUS which will keep its lifetime numbers behind BRAHMASTRA (Hindi). But this film has broken the myths that box office is now about mass and event films only and the story based films without commercial elements can still do the numbers though they have must the ability to reach the audience outside the metros.

The collections of DRISHYAM 2 till date are as follows,

Week One - 1,02,37,00,000

Week Two - 57,16,00,000

Third Week - 31,77,00,000
