They Call Him OG, the highly anticipated film starring Pawan Kalyan, is set to hit cinemas on September 25, 2025. The excitement surrounding the project reached new heights with the release of its first single, Firestorm. The song quickly became a sensation, breaking records to become the most-liked Telugu song within 24 hours.
Fans are celebrating the track and vibing with its energy, but they also have two clear requests for the makers.
The first is a positive and practical suggestion. Pawan Kalyan’s fans are asking for official merchandise for OG, including T-shirts, keychains, caps, and more. With the film’s hype already at a peak, such merchandise would not only satisfy the fanbase but also expand the film’s reach and cultural impact. It is a move that makes sense both emotionally and commercially.
The second request is more critical. The promotional strategy for Firestorm included several influencers who were officially onboarded to push the song on social media. However, many fans felt disappointed by the choices. Some of these influencers are relatively unknown, while others are frequently trolled online and do not reflect the film’s stature. Fans believe that OG, with all its scale and anticipation, deserves a next-level campaign featuring more respected or relevant figures. They are not opposed to influencer marketing in general, but they want the execution to match the film’s grandeur.
At the end of the day, it is up to the makers to decide the course, but the message from the fanbase is clear. OG is not just another film. It carries a massive weight of expectations, and fans want every aspect, from songs to promotions, to reflect that.
They Call Him OG stars Priyanka Mohan, Emraan Hashmi, Prakash Raj, Arjun Das, Sriya Reddy, and others in key roles. The film is produced by DVV Danayya and Kalyan Dasari, with music by Thaman.
