From the genius of Drishyam to the misfires of Mirage, here's ranking every Malayalam thriller directed by Jeethu Joseph before Georgekutty returns in Drishyam 3.

A woman and her paramour in Gujarat's Patan district allegedly killed a middle-aged man and set his body on fire, dressed in the woman's clothes, to fake her own death, inspired by the Bollywood thriller "Drishyam." The police have arrested Geeta Ahir and Bharat Ahir, who confessed to the crime after being apprehended at Palanpur railway station. Geeta's husband, who initially believed the body was hers, found the deceased was a man, leading to a murder investigation. The man was identified as Harjibhai Solanki.
