After almost three weeks in theatres, Pawan Kalyan's latest film They Call Him OG, directed by Sujeeth is all set for release on OTT. Netflix has announced that the action crime drama will arrive on the streamer on October 23.
The film released in theatres on September 25, earned over a whopping Rs 100 crore worldwide (Rs 63.75 crore in India alone), setting the biggest opening day record in India this year. In its theatrical run, the film is estimated to have collected Rs 200 crore across India. OG is also the highest grossing Telugu film of 2025.
OG revolves around former gangster Ojas Gambheera who, after vanishing from Mumbai's underworld for a decade, resurfaces seeking vengeance against rival crime lords.
Also starring Emraan Hashmi in his Telugu debut, Arjun Das, Sriya Reddy and Priyanka Mohan in prominent roles, OG was released in theatres to mixed reviews from audiences and critics. Despite that, it has been winning a lot of praise for its hero-elevation action set-pieces, stylish cinematography (by Ravi K Chandran and Manoj Paramahamsa) and a thumping soundtrack by Thaman S.
Our CE review of the film read, "OG is a giant balloon inflated for three years finally escaping the hype factory, not with a bang, but with a slow, embarrassingly long sigh. A spectacle that kept promising blood and thunder, but leaves you in the theatre like Gambheera himself, lips twitching, staring into the void waiting for that Firestorm that is never arriving!"
