They Call Him OG (2025) Movie : Power Star Pawan Kalyan
The highly anticipated Telugu action crime film "They Call Him OG," directed by Sujeeth and produced by DVV Entertainment, hit theaters worldwide on September 25, 2025. Starring Telugu superstar Pawan Kalyan in the titular role alongside Bollywood actor Emraan Hashmi in his Telugu debut, the film has already created a buzz for its intense action sequences and gripping underworld drama.
Plot and Cast
Set largely in the 1970s Mumbai underworld, the story follows Ojas Gambheera, aka OG (played by Pawan Kalyan), a former gangster who resurfaces after a decade-long disappearance seeking vengeance and to protect his allies. His main adversary is Omi Bhau, portrayed by Emraan Hashmi, who delivers a compelling villainous presence in his Telugu debut.
The film also features performances by Priyanka Arul Mohan as Kanmani (Ojas's wife), Arjun Das, Sriya Reddy, Prakash Raj as the powerful Satyanarayana "Satya Dada," and several other notable actors including Tej Sapru, Ajay Ghosh, and cameo appearances from Jackie Shroff and Lal.
Direction, Music, and Cinematography
Director Sujeeth crafts "They Call Him OG" as a fan-service film for Pawan Kalyan’s legions of fans, with a string of well-executed elevation scenes and adrenaline-pumping action. The music by Thaman S complements the narrative with chest-thumping scores during pivotal moments, effectively upping the film’s mass appeal.

Cinematographers Ravi K. Chandran and Manoj Paramahamsa capture Mumbai’s gritty underworld with flair, while the editing by Naveen Nooli keeps the pacing taut, especially in the first half.
Reviews and Reception
Initial reviews praise Pawan Kalyan’s magnetic screen presence and action sequences, giving the film a strong start. India Today highlights the director’s love for the star, with rousing elevation sequences creating a "paisa-vasool" mass entertainer. However, critics also point out some predictable story tropes in the second half, including clichéd plot points like kidnapping, which dilute narrative impact.
Emraan Hashmi’s portrayal of Omi Bhau stands out as a showstopper, adding the necessary intensity to the protagonist-antagonist rivalry. Supporting actors, including Arjun Das and Prakash Raj, also receive appreciation for their impactful roles.
While the film’s visual effects and dubbing have some inconsistencies, "They Call Him OG" ultimately fulfills its promise as a power-packed gangster drama with a nostalgic throwback to classic action cinema. A surprise post-credit scene has been noted by many fans as a treat worth waiting for.
