Is OG sequel and prequel on cards? Pawan Kalyan spills major tea after film's success
Pawan Kalyan starrer They Call Him OG is a gangster action film, directed by Sujeeth. As the movie runs in theaters, the Power Star has dropped plans for the film’s future.
They Call Him OG (or simply OG), starring Pawan Kalyan in the lead role, was released in theaters on September 25, 2025.

Now, it looks like the Power Star himself has announced plans for both a prequel and a sequel.
Pawan Kalyan announces plans for OG’s sequel and prequel
Speaking at the OG success meet, Pawan Kalyan revealed that the film has given him the motivation to continue making films while also fulfilling his duties as the Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh.
Recalling his first interaction with director Sujeeth, the actor said, “It is easy to write a story, but it is difficult to bring it to life on screen. Initially, I was not aware of OG’s full story and only met Sujeeth after director Trivikram mentioned his name. Sujeeth then told me, ‘You will be a Japanese-like gangster, holding a sword and carrying a gun.’ I did not fully understand the story at that time, but when I saw my son reading the notes with joy, I realised that this story is relevant for this generation.”
Pawan Kalyan went on to emphasize his desire to balance his cinematic career with his political responsibilities to Andhra Pradesh as the Deputy CM.
The actor-politician later announced the plans for OG’s future installments and said, “So I told him (Sujeeth) to let us work on a sequel and prequel to OG. I know how frustrating it can be when a film fails, but OG has given me the motivation to do films again. I want to continue the OG world in the time I get.”
