The announcement has sent shockwaves through the industry, with Mohanlal sharing a chilling motion poster that features the tagline, “Years passed. The past didn’t.” The film is officially scheduled for a worldwide theatrical release on April 2, 2026, strategically timed to coincide with the Easter and Vishu holiday season. Director Jeethu Joseph returns to helm the project, promising a conclusion to the saga that has redefined the thriller genre in India.
The teaser video highlights iconic imagery from the previous films—an old television, a shovel, a submerged car, and a yellow bag—suggesting that the consequences of Georgekutty’s past actions have finally caught up with his family. In a unique industry move, the Malayalam original will release exactly six months before the Hindi version (starring Ajay Devgn), which is slated for October 2, 2026. Fans are already speculating that this third installment may be the “final chapter,” as Georgekutty attempts to protect his family one last time from a relentless police investigation.
