HYDERABAD: Pawan Kalyan’s upcoming gangster drama They Call Him OG is slated for worldwide release on September 25, 2025, with USA premieres on September 24. Directed by Sujeeth, OG, with a production budget of nearly Rs. 250 crore is said to be the most expensive film of Pawan Kalyan’s career.
The buzz around the movie has been extraordinary since the teaser dropped on Pawan Kalyan’s birthday.
In North America, OG has already broken records by selling more than 50,000 pre-sale tickets. It also became the fastest Telugu film to cross $1 million in premiere pre-sales. Trade experts predict an opening of nearly 40 crores overseas, with strong numbers expected in India as well.
The film’s theatrical trailer will be released on September 18. Before that, a new song titled Guns & Roses is expected to arrive on September 15 to keep the excitement alive. The makers are planning a pre-release event on September 20 in Vizag, with rumors suggesting that Chiranjeevi might attend as the chief guest.
Pawan Kalyan plays Ojas Gambheera, also known as OG, while Bollywood star Emraan Hashmi makes his Telugu debut as the antagonist Omi Bhau. Priyanka Mohan plays the female lead, with Prakash Raj, Arjun Das, Sriya Reddy, and Shaam in key roles. The film is produced by DVV Danayya and Kalyan Dasari, with music composed by Thaman S.
Backed by high-octane action, stylish visuals, and massive fan support, OG is expected to break box office records and become one of the biggest Telugu releases of the year.
