Pawan Kalyan’s upcoming film OG has created headlines even before its release, thanks to the first ticket of the Nizam screening fetching a staggering Rs 5 lakh at an online auction. The auction coincided with the actor-politician’s 54th birthday on 2 September, making the occasion even more memorable for fans.
About OG
OG, also referred to as They Call Him OG, is a gangster drama directed by Sujeeth and produced by DVV Danayya under DVV Entertainment. The film features Pawan Kalyan as Ojas Gambheera, while Bollywood actor Emraan Hashmi makes his Telugu debut portraying the antagonist Omi Bhau. The ensemble cast includes Priyanka Mohan, Arjun Das, Prakash Raj, Sriya Reddy, and Harish Uthaman. Music for the film is composed by Thaman S, and OG is slated for a theatrical release on 25 September 2025.
A recently released poster shows Kalyan in a fierce avatar, seated on a car bonnet wearing a maroon shirt and black trousers, highlighting the action-driven tone of the film. Director Sujeeth shared the poster on his social media handle to mark Kalyan’s birthday, celebrating the actor as both a cinematic icon and a source of inspiration for fans.
Pawan Kalyan’s Pre-Politics Film Lineup
OG is one of the three films Kalyan agreed to before stepping into politics and becoming the Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh. The other two were Krish and Jyothi Krishna’s Hari Hara Veera Mallu and Harish Shankar’s Ustaad Bhagat Singh.
While Hari Hara Veera Mallu did not make a significant impact at the box office, anticipation is high for OG, which marks a major cinematic return for the actor. His political party, JSP, won the 2024 Andhra Pradesh elections in alliance with TDP and BJP, reflecting his dual influence in cinema and politics.
