Megastar Chiranjeevi has expressed his delight and congratulated his brother, Pawan Kalyan, on the grand success of his latest film, "They Call Him OG". The film, directed by Sujeeth, has been receiving positive reviews and has generated a phenomenal response from fans.
Chiranjeevi conveyed his heartfelt congratulations to Pawan Kalyan, referring to him as "Kalyan Babu," and celebrating his portrayal of "THE OG – OJAS GHAMBEERA". He also extended his appreciation to the entire team behind the film, including director Sujeeth, producer DVV Danayya, music composer Thaman, and the rest of the cast and crew.
"They Call Him OG" is touted as a fan-service film to Power Star Pawan Kalyan. The film wastes no time diving into action, with electrifying introduction scenes. Pawan Kalyan's screen presence is described as magnetic, with Thaman's music stealing the show. The movie has plenty of whistle-worthy moments for fans.
Several reviewers have noted the film's technical brilliance and Thaman's "thumping soundtrack". Action sequences, the introduction fight, interval block, and police station scene have been particularly praised. Sujeeth successfully showcases Pawan Kalyan in a vintage look with powerful action sequences.
However, some critics point out inconsistencies in the film's tone, visual effects, and dubbing. Some felt that the storyline was predictable, and the second half had dull moments. The film has an overload of characters and subplots, and the narrative sometimes becomes confusing.
Despite these criticisms, "They Call Him OG" appears to be a commercial success, with high expectations for its box office performance. Some reports suggest that the film is expected to earn ₹100 crore on its opening day. The film is also expected to take a nearly USD 3 million premiere opening in North America and become the highest-grossing Telugu film in the region.
Other members of the film fraternity have also lauded the movie. Nani called the film an "Original Giant Blockbuster".
"They Call Him OG" features Pawan Kalyan in a power-packed role, alongside a cast that includes Priyanka Mohan and Emraan Hashmi in key roles. The film's music, cinematography, and action sequences have been well-received by audiences.
