Pawan Kalyan’s OG, directed by Sujeeth, is off to a solid start at the ticket windows. The gangster action drama features Emraan Hashmi as the antagonist. Some are comparing OG to Ajith’s Good Bad Ugly, stating that the Pawan Kalyan starrer is identical to the Tamil film.
In a recent interview, Sujeeth addressed these comparisons. “Even before Adhik Ravichandran started writing Good Bad Ugly’s script, I released the OG glimpse. I know him very well. He genuinely likes me and my work. I know him from Trisha Illana Nayanthara time. The Good Bad Ugly team released a song titled OG Sambhavam. Generally, whatever material releases first will be considered original. They didn’t do it intentionally, but my film was criticized,” stated Sujeeth.
He added, “I liked Mark Antony and felt Adhik was very talented. Arjun Das played the villain in Good Bad Ugly. By the time he was roped in for Ajith Garu’s film, we had already started filming his portions in OG. Since our film was delayed, comparisons were inevitable.”
