During a recent interaction with Manorama News, Jeethu was asked about the mixed reactions to the announcement of Drishyam sequel. To which he stated, "Frankly, I am surprised by some of the reactions to the news, though I must concede I expected such mixed reactions. Let me make it clear that I can’t write a sequel for such an overpowering film like Drishyam in such a short span. It has been brewing in my mind for a long time, say four-five years, and my initial decision was not to go ahead. I almost dropped the plan though the idea always lingered."
