The crime/death/murder in Jeethu Joseph’s Drishyam (2013) takes place on August 2, 2013, with its cover-up spread over two days. Which in the context of Joseph’s Drishyam 2 happened six years ago.

In the manner of real sequels that take forward plot, event, characters (possibly the toughest screenwriting skill for a feature film), the police are still investigating what happened with that killing and subsequent burial. Because the dead body is missing since.
