Powerstar Pawan Kalyan’s gangster action drama They Call Him OG is already creating waves at the box office. Directed by Sujeeth, OG has emerged as the fastest Indian movie to surpass $1 million in North America premiere pre-sales. Though the movie is surrounded by positive buzz, fans are making one key demand, and it’s not about the trailer.
So far, everything the makers have released has been of top-notch quality, and fans strongly believe that OG is the perfect film to break into the Hindi market. However, with Hindi promotions yet to kick off, fans are urging the team to go all out, scheduling multiple events in the North. Even Pawan Kalyan’s birthday glimpse, which is now dominating social media, wasn’t released in Hindi, which left many disappointed.
Pawan Kalyan’s admirers feel that OG ticks all the right boxes to impress North Indian audiences. While Hari Hara Veera Mallu was a stale product, OG carries the freshness and stylish taking that can appeal to today’s youth. Especially the first glimpse struck a chord with cinephiles.
They Call Him OG features Bollywood star Emraan Hashmi as the antagonist. Though Emraan hasn’t been in great form, he still commands a loyal fanbase. Sujeeth’s powerful presentation of Emraan Hashmi in the latest promo impressed many, and if the makers can tap into his popularity, OG could secure a good opening in Hindi. From there, the rest will depend on Sujeeth’s execution.
