Our Review
They Call Him OG is a high-octane Telugu action thriller where Pawan Kalyan returns as the gangster Ojas Gambheera “OG” after 10 years to avenge his mentor’s death and reclaim Mumbai’s underworld. Pawan Kalyan dominates with his charismatic presence and intense action, while Emraan Hashmi shines as the menacing villain O negative. Priyanka Mojan adds glamour in her Telugu debut, and the supporting cast like Arjun Das keeps it lively. Directed by Sujeeth, the story packs revenge, drama, and mass appeal with Thaman’s pumping score and stunning visuals. Sure, it’s formulaic with predictable twists and a dragged second half, but the star power, dialogues, and climactic fights make it a crowd-pleaser for fans.
