CBFC clears Drishyam The Conclusion WITHOUT a single cut; is 8 minutes longer than Drishyam 2

The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) is often criticized for asking for cuts that are seen as unnecessary or unfair.However, last week, it surprised everyone by approving the movie "The Vvaan" starring Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia without any changes.This week, the CBFC seems to be continuing this trend, as seen from the censorship details of "Drishyam The Conclusion."


Source has learned that "Drishyam The Conclusion" has been given a U/A 16+ certificate by the CBFC.

Notably, the examining committee did not ask for any cuts or changes to the audio or visuals.Sometimes, the CBFC asks filmmakers to include the title and credits in the film's language or add an anti-drug message at the start and during the break.In this case, these changes were not requested, and the film received a clean U/A 16+ certificate.

The censor certificate for "Drishyam The Conclusion" was given to the makers on September 28.
The certificate says the film is 150 minutes long, which means it runs for 2 hours and 30 minutes.

This makes "Drishyam The Conclusion" the second film in the franchise to get a U/A certificate without any cuts, the other being "Drishyam 2" (2022).
It is also the second-longest film in the franchise."Drishyam" (2015) lasted 162 minutes, while "Drishyam 2" was 2 hours and 22 minutes.

"Drishyam The Conclusion" stars Ajay Devgn, Tabu, Shriya Saran, Jaideep Ahlawat, Prakash Raj, Rajat Kapoor, Ishita Dutta, Mrunal Jadhav, and Kamlesh Sawant.
It is directed by Abhishek Pathak and produced by Alok Jain, Ajit Andhare, Kumar Mangat Pathak, and Abhishek Pathak.The film is set to release in cinemas on October 2.

The Vvaan Box Office: Sidharth Malhotra starrer records Rs. 31.94 crore opening weekend; here’s where it stands among 2026 releases

The Vvaan: Force of the Forest has made it into the list of famous stage performers of 2026 after making Rs.31.94 crore from ticket sales in its first weekend.

The movie starring Sidharth Malhotra and Tamannaah Bhatia, which came out on September 25, saw its earnings increase over the three days.
It has done well in areas with large crowds and smaller local theaters.A trade expert named Taran Adarsh said the movie did very well in smaller towns and villages, and also in theaters with just one screen.

At Rs. 31.94 crore, The Vvaan is behind the biggest opening-weekend movies of 2026.The top one is Dhurandhar The Revenge with Rs.443 crore.Other big ones include Spider-Man: Brand New Day with Rs.257.60 crore, Border 2 with Rs.129.89 crore, Toxic with Rs.116.48 crore, Mirzapur: The Movie with Rs.90.95 crore, Dhamaal 4 with Rs.64.35 crore, Welcome To The Jungle with Rs.63.47 crore, The Odyssey with Rs.56.85 crore and Bhooth Bangla with Rs.54.50 crore.

Still, The Vvaan has done better than several other films this year.
It made Rs.23.16 crore more than Resident Evil's Rs.8.78 crore, Rs.25.36 crore more than Vibe's Rs.6.58 crore and Rs.28.20 crore more than Daayra's Rs.3.74 crore.

This revised number puts The Vvaan among the top opening weekends for Hindi films in 2026.
However, there's still a big difference between The Vvaan and the biggest movies of the year.

The next big test will be how it does on Monday.
With the first weekend total now at Rs.31.94 crore, how the film does on weekdays will decide how high it can go in the box-office rankings for 2026.
