What happens in Drishyam from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 14 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 4-minute read.

Spoilers ahead

Georgekutty, Mohanlal started out as an orphan who had dropped out of school after his 4th grade, and he grew up to become a small-town entrepreneur running a cable television service in Rajakkad. He lives with his wife, Rani, Meena, and their two daughters, Anju, Ansiba Hassan, and Anu, Esther Anil. His life centers on his family, but his deep love for cinema and a knack for storytelling give him a kind of local fame and respect. He keeps a tight, frugal routine, spending long hours in his modest office, often in front of the TV, where he studies films with the eye of a curious amateur-turned-critic.
