Indian film 'Drishyam 3' Lands in Legal Trouble After Kerala Man Claims Film Used His Real Vehicle Number Plate The makers of the blockbuster thriller Drishyam 3 have found themselves at the centre of an unexpected controversy after a Kerala resident alleged that the film used his real vehicle registration number without his permission. The dispute has triggered legal action and renewed debate over the use of real-world identification details in films. The complaint was filed by Rajeev, a resident of Kunchithanny in Idukki district, who claimed that the registration number of his personal vehicle appeared on a vehicle used by the film's central character. According to him, he was never approached by the filmmakers for consent and only became aware of the issue after friends and social media users began drawing attention to the matching number plate. Rajeev has reportedly submitted a formal complaint to police authorities and demanded that all scenes displaying the registration number be removed from the film. He also provided copies of his vehicle registration documents as evidence. The complainant argues that the unauthorized use of the number could expose him to unnecessary legal complications or public attention if incidents associated with the film are mistakenly linked to his vehicle. What makes the case particularly unusual is that Rajeev's actual vehicle is reportedly a Mahindra Scorpio, while the vehicle shown in the movie belongs to a different model altogether. Despite the difference in vehicles, he alleges that the registration number displayed on screen matches his own. The controversy quickly gained traction on social media, where many users compared the situation to a real-life "Drishyam twist." Some users joked that Georgekutty's legendary attention to detail may have overlooked one crucial clue—the number plate. Others sympathized with the vehicle owner and argued that filmmakers should use fictional registration numbers or digitally generated identifiers to avoid creating problems for ordinary citizens. Legal experts say the case raises broader questions about privacy and the responsibility of film producers when using identifiable real-world details. While number plates are publicly visible, courts have increasingly examined whether unauthorized use of personal identifiers in commercial works can create reputational or legal risks for individuals. As of now, the filmmakers have not publicly announced whether the scenes in question will be altered. However, the complaint has added an unexpected chapter to the release of one of India's most anticipated thriller sequels. For many observers, the irony is hard to miss: a franchise built around hiding evidence is now facing scrutiny over a detail that may have been hidden in plain sight.
