Troubles mount for Hindi Drishyam 3? 

While all the Drishyam movies led by Ajay Devgn have always been remakes, they find a sure-shot audience among cinegoers. Fans of the franchise flock to the cinema to see the movie. However, this time the situation might be troubling for the Bollywood release. Mohanlal's Drishyam 3 is reported to release in many languages, including Hindi.
