The recently released trailer for They Call Him OG gives fans exactly what they were waiting for, grit, style, and high tension. Directed by Sujeeth, the film stars Pawan Kalyan in the title role of Ojas Gambheera (OG), with Emraan Hashmi making his Telugu debut as the ruthless crime lord Omi Bhau.
What does OG trailer offer?
From the very first shot, the visuals are striking, dark alleyways, slick interiors, rain-splashed exteriors, and a mood of unavoidable conflict. A standout moment in the trailer is when Priyanka Arul Mohan’s character Kanmani asks OG about a tattoo on his hand, sparking speculation among fans that this connects to his past. There are intense action sequences, glimpses of OG wielding a katana, fights that look brutal yet choreographed, quick flashes of betrayal, and emotional undertones, all set against a heavy background score by BGM king Thaman S.
In technical terms, how does trailer look?
Technically, the trailer is designed for spectacle, cinematography by Ravi K. Chandran & Manoj Paramahamsa gives many scenes a high-contrast, moody texture; editing by Naveen Nooli keeps tension sharp and Thaman’s music ties everything together with pulsating rhythm. The launch event added extra flair, which happened on Sunday. Pawan Kalyan wielded a sword (katana) on stage, saying, “I forgot I’m the Deputy CM,” which only added to the hype. The teaser was first shown at pre-release events, and though the trailer leaked early via fan shares, the audience reaction suggests it only boosted excitement further, giving it “Desi John Wick vibes.”
