For brilliant performances Tabuji and Ajay Devganji should have received filmfare awards in both Drishyam and Drishyam 2.
Ajay Devgan and Tabu were brilliant in film Drishyam. They should have won awards for their acting in the film.
Ajay Devgan and Tabu did a great job in the film Drishyam. The film was originally made in Malayalam and Mohanlal played the lead role in the film.
The hindi version is directed by Nishikant Kamat. It had been produced by Kumar Pathak, Ajit Andhare and Abhishek Pathak. The music had been composed by Vishal Bhardwaj.
In the film Ajay Devgan had Cable business in a remote village at Goa. He lived peacefully with his wife played by Shriya Saran and two daughters. Once his daughter went for camping with her college friends. At that camp Rishabh Chaddha (played the role of Sam), the son of Inspector General played by Tabu took ofscene photos of her from his mobile phone and blackmailed her. In haste Ajay Devgan’s daughter hit him with an iron rod and he was killed. Shriya Saran and the daughter buried the body in the garden of the house and told Ajay Devgan about everything.
Ajay Devgan made a plan, took the family on holiday, went to Panaji by bus, stayed in a hotel, saw a film and returned back keeping all the bills of expenses. Tabu very seriously interrogated him because one of the police officers Gaikonde saw Ajay Devgan driving the yellow car of Sam.
The rest of the film was related to the interrogation. The police tortured Ajay Devgan and his family in the custody, and finally the younger daughter told that the body of Sam was buried in the garden. But when the surrounding area was dug, the body of a dead goat was found.
Tabu was suspended along with Gaikonde. Ajay Devgan very intelligently used the stories of films and buried the body in the new foundation of police station.
The acting of Ajay Devgan, Tabu were per excellence. Both of them deserve a number of awards for outstanding performance. The film had very unique storyline. The film had done business of 42 crores in 5 days but is destined to do better.
The music was good and the song “dum ghutta hai” by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Rekha Bhardwaj stands out. Everyone should watch the film.

Ajay Devganji blockbuster film Drishyam 2 did business of more than 210 crores in 24 days.
Blockbuster film Drishyam 2 did business of more than 210 crores in 24 days. It did business of 190 crores in 16 days. Drishyam 2 with Ajay Devgan and Tabooji earned more than 175 crores in 13 days. It has ended up being a blockbuster. After being charged with murder, a man named David Braganza flees from authorities on the night of October 4, 2014. While hiding behind an under-construction police station, he sees Vijay exiting it. He then attempts to apologise to his wife, but ends up getting arrested.
Seven years later
Vijay and his family are living contentedly in Pondolem, Goa. Vijay has fulfilled his dream of opening a movie theater and still operates a cable company. He aspires to make a film of his own and is in frequent contact with screenwriter Murad Ali to develop the script. On the other hand, Vijay's elder daughter, Anju, suffers from PTSD and epilepsy as a result of her involvement in Sam's death. Envious of the family, numerous locals have turned to spreading false rumours about Anju being in a relationship with Sam, much to Nandini's distress. Nandini's only confidante is her friendly neighbor, Jenny, who is often abused by her alcoholic husband, Shiv.
On Sam's death anniversary, Vijay has an encounter with Sam's father, Mahesh, who vainly asks him to hand over Sam's remains. Meanwhile, Nandini spends more time with Jenny and incidentally reveals that Anju killed Sam. Unknown to her, Jenny and Shiv are married undercover cops, assigned by newly-appointed Inspector General, Tarun Ahlawat, who is a close friend and colleague of Meera.
Around the same time, David is released from jail. After struggling to create amends with his now-estranged wife, he yearns to find employment. Whereas coming to know that Vijay’s case is still progressing, he recalls the latter's presence at the then-under-construction police station and realises that Vijay was in fact complicit in the murder. He tips Tarun, who in turn summons Meera and Mahesh from London. After the trio bribes him with a entirety of Rs. 25,00,000, David divulges what he saw, leading to the newly-built police station being excavated. The police inevitably find a human skeleton. Vijay, having learned of this through his CCTV cameras (which he had set up around the police station), supposedly gives up.
Tarun summons Vijay's family for questioning. Vijay, Nandini, Anu, and Anju manage to maintain their alibi; however, Meera uncovers a voice recording of Nandini's prior confession to Jenny; the police bugged the family residence prior, exposing the family. Tarun allows Gaitonde to use brute drive against Vijay's family, causing Anju to have one of her fits. A distraught Vijay falsely confesses to killing Sam. With the police satisfied, the family is let go, and Vijay ends up getting arrested, although Meera isn't fulfilled and demands that Vijay's family be punished as well.
Vijay is put on trial for Sam's murder. Coincidentally, Murad, having learned of Vijay's arrest, pays a visit to Tarun, Meera, and Mahesh. He reveals that during one of his business collisions with Vijay, the latter had created a script for a future crime thriller, loosely based on Sam's murder. He further uncovers that Vijay had published a novel, titled Drishyam, based on the film script (although it was published under Murad's name for copyright protection). Vijay pleads not guilty, with his lawyer claiming that the police used Drishyam's plot as a means to frame him. Tarun concludes that Vijay created the confession as a scheme to avoid punishment. Furthermore, the judge reveals the DNA tests conducted on the skeleton don't match Sam's DNA, much to everyone's shock.
Murad unveils that Vijay had created an alternative ending for his film in which the hero (Vijay), knowing his original plan might fail, would obtain the remains of another individual of the same age and sex who had died of similar injuries to those of the villain, by become friends with a gravedigger at the local cemetery. The hero would keep the skeletal remains with him for three years before befriending the security guard of the district medical college morgue under the pretext of offering him a chance within the film industry. The same night that the remains that were exhumed from the police station arrived at the morgue, the hero would swap the bodies before the DNA analysis took place.
Vijay is released on bail due to a lack of evidence, and the police are temporarily prohibited from investigating the family. The judge calls Tarun to his chambers and tells him to stop all procedures against Vijay and his family, as he believes both families deserve justice but the legal system is incapable to provide it to them. The judge moreover tells him that such cases are not new to the system. Outside the courthouse, Murad uncovers to Meera and Mahesh that Vijay's alternative climax had a twist in which the hero would hand over the villain's cremated remains to the bereaved parents. Simultaneously, Vijay has Sam's cremated remains anonymously given over to Meera and Mahesh.
Mahesh immerses Sam's ashes in the river and persuades Meera to let go of her envy towards Vijay and his family, as he believes they have found closure which they thought they were keeping an eye on him, but it was Vijay who was observing their each move the entire time. Vijay, who was observing from afar, solemnly leaves.
Drishyam 2 earned ₹15.38 crore at the domestic box office on it's opening day. On the second day the film collected ₹21.59 crore, while on the third day it collected ₹27.17 crore taking the domestic weekend collection to ₹64.14 crore.[16]
As of 2 December 2022 the film earned ₹167.93 crore (US$21 million) net in india.[17] India overall gross collection is 199.92 crore and, overseas gross is 42.15 crores taking worldwide collection to ₹242.07 crore (US$30 million).[16]
Critical response
Drishyam 2 received positive reviews from critics.[18] Bollywood Hungama rated the film 4 out of 5 stars and termed the film a "paisavasool experience" and also praised the performances and climax.[19] Archika Khurana of The Times of India rated the film 3.5 out of 5 stars and wrote: "Drishyam 2 dishes out plenty of twists and turns to keep you hooked throughout, just like its predecessor. And the story of the Salgaokars will continue to remain in public memory"
