Imagine this: A regular family man, Vijay, is caught in a web of lies after a crime happens right under his roof. In Drishyam, Vijay does everything to protect his loved ones, but what if he hadn’t covered up the truth? Could the truth have set him free, or would it have torn his family apart?
One popular fan theory suggests Vijay was already planning the cover-up before the incident even occurred, knowing that things might go wrong. What if the crime never happened, and Vijay’s past sins came back to haunt him? Would he still have been the hero in the eyes of his family?
An unresolved mystery that fans debate is how Vijay managed to outsmart the police, leaving no evidence behind. Did he have inside help, or was it all just his brilliant mind working its magic?
Now, imagine an alternate ending: Vijay gets caught, but in the trial, he chooses to reveal the truth to save his family. How would the legal system handle this moral dilemma? Or even better, a prequel exploring Vijay’s early days—how did he get so skilled at hiding the truth? Would it change how we see him?
This story leaves us wondering: sometimes the truth isn’t as powerful as the lies we believe.
