About the trailer
The trailer begins with Georgekutty sitting inside his home, along with his wife and daughters, having a conversation. They feel that the past, where all of them had been involved with the police and framed for murder, and eventually left free, is a thing of their past. They are now accepted in the society. But, Georgekutty is not convinced.
Without explicitly pointing out what sets a series of investigative forces on Georgekutty and his family, the trailer of Drishyam 3 tells the viewer that this time the man has to be cautious at all times, careful not to take a single wrong step. He says at one point that he worries even his family sees him as a criminal. What can he do next? That sets the rest of this thriller.
The film is set to release in theatres on May 21, which is also the birthday of the National Award-winning actor.
