"Started shooting for this engaging franchise #Drishyam3 in Hindi. With a wonderful team and a scintillating role to play. Im sure you will love it. (and yes i'm not replacing anyone..)," he posted.
Recently, producer Kumar Mangat Pathak confirmed that actor Jaideep Ahlawat has joined the lead cast of Drishyam 3 following Khanna's abrupt exit from the film.
Pathak had said Ahlawat has been cast in a new role, taking over the part previously played by Akshaye, but in a new form.
The update came amid the ongoing legal dispute between Akshaye Khanna and the makers of Drishyam 3 after Pathak sent a legal notice to the actor for walking out of the film 'Drishyam 3' after accepting the signing amount and committing dates for the project.
Khanna has not issued a statement yet.
Drishyam 3 is slated to release in theatres worldwide on October 2, 2026. It stars Ajay Devgn in the lead.
