Drishyam 2 is a sequel to the Hindi flick Drishyam released in 2015, which itself was a remake of the Malayalam movie of the same name that was released in 2013, again with Mohanlal in the lead.
In a time when Bollywood is being criticized for constantly depending on South remakes and all its big budget ventures with big stars flopping at the box office, Drishyam 2 in Hindi has emerged as a welcome oasis for the sagging fortunes of the Hindi Film Industry that has experienced many setbacks in the post-pandemic era.
The Hindi Drishyam was released on November 18, 2022, across multiple theatres in India and worldwide where it got thunderous responses from the audience, which prompted its OTT release on an immediate basis as viewers starting discussing about it.
The Ajay Devgn starrer has been critically acclaimed all around, while the supporting cast of Tabu, Akshaye Khanna, and Shriya Saran, too have received praise for their performances.

Due to the massive responses that the Drishyam 2 Hindi version is getting, viewers are getting impatient for the movie to release on OTT platforms, while the makers have not yet revealed any time or date regarding the online release, which will be a good time for people who couldn’t watch it in theatres to enliven the experience at home.
Whenever any movie, irrespective of the budget or cast, releases on the big screen or even before, OTT platforms leap into action and make their offer to purchase the digital rights of the venture and once done, they start streaming it on their platform.
In the past two years, theatre buffs who couldn’t watch their favourite movies on the big screen got to do the same through OTT platforms like Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Sony Liv, Zee5, Voot, Disney+ Hotstar, most of which have become household names in India post pandemic.
