In this Paisa Vasool episode we review They Call Him OG — a stylish, elevation-driven Pawan Kalyan vehicle from director Sujeeth. We cover what works (music, mood, a slick Japanese/Yakuza flavor, a few standout set-pieces) and what doesn’t (a thin plot, limited Pawan screen time, an “unstoppable” hero with low stakes, and a villain who never feels dangerous). We also discuss how scheduling/production constraints shaped the film, compare it with this year’s big Telugu releases, and look at Sujeeth’s next move.
