Pawan Kalyan’s They Call Him OG finally released, and fans turned the theatres into a festival. Directed by Sujeeth, the film also stars Emraan Hashmi, Priyanka Mohan, Arjun Das, Prakash Raj, and Sriya Reddy in key roles. The film promised mass action and a stylish presentation, but did it live up to the mark? Twitter is now buzzing with reviews, and while the response is filled with love for Pawan Kalyan’s performance, the story execution has divided audiences.

They Call Him OG Audience Reaction

Some viewers felt the film worked in parts but fell flat overall. One user wrote that while “the movie works well in moments, as a whole it’s disappointing since Sujeeth repeated the Saaho-style screenplay.” Still, many felt this was Pawan Kalyan’s best outing in recent times, loaded with fan-service moments.

Others, however, called it a “Blockbuster OG.” A fan shared, “First half is absolute madness. The second half starts strong but slows down for a while. The climax though, offers a unique ending and fresh presentation. Overall, a blockbuster.”

Many neutral viewers too found the film enjoyable, despite minor pacing issues. “Nobody complained except about a 10–15 minute slowdown in the second half. But the atmosphere created in the first half and PK’s screen presence carried it,” one post read.

At the same time, some felt let down. A harsh comment called it “average, one-time watchable, half-baked, or just pure fan service.” Another went further, stating, “Hero characterization and screenplay in the first half are average. The second half lags badly, making it a waste.”

On the positive side, the action blocks, especially the police station sequence, have received a thunderous response. Fans raved, calling it “Mad Max-level madness” and “the absolute best sequence with unmatched swag from PK.” Many also praised Sujeeth’s stylish presentation and Thaman’s fiery background score, with one review noting, “Though it’s a routine gangster drama, the engaging treatment and BGM elevate it.”

Some users even summed it up with one word – “Blockbuster.” Others gave balanced takes, pointing out, “Sujeeth nailed PK’s presentation but missed with the story. There were whistle-worthy moments but the film didn’t connect fully.”

Final Words

From the reactions, They Call Him OG is clearly a film made for Pawan Kalyan fans. His screen presence, swag, and action blocks are the biggest highlights, with Thaman’s music amplifying the mass appeal. However, the uneven screenplay and a dragging second half have divided opinions among neutral audiences.

For die-hard fans, the movie is pure celebration. For others, it may feel like a mixed bag with highs and lows.
