Mohanlal's last release was Drishyam 2 which received highly positive reviews from the critics and the general audience. Drishyam 2 skipped the theatrical release and had a direct OTT release on Prime Video platform and it opened to a phenomenal response. Directed by Jeethu Joseph, Drishyam 2 featured Mohanlal, Meena, Ansiba Hassan, and Esther Anil in the lead roles and had music scored by Anil Johnson. Drishyam 2 started off from where Drishyam ended and when people thought that the second part wouldn't be as gripping as the first part, Jeethu Joseph proved everyone wrong. The latest exciting update is that the film will now be remade in Hindi and the pre production works have begun in full swing.

The Hindi remake rights have been acquired by popular film production house, Panorama Studios and the announcement regarding the same was made this morning (May 4). Panorama Studios is known for producing notable Hindi movies like Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji, Drishyam, Ujda Chaman, Pagalpanti, Section 375, Khuda Haafiz, Ezra, and more.
