They Call Him OG, starring Pawan Kalyan and directed by Sujeeth, continues a robust box office run into its third day, after breaking records with its opening
The film earned around ₹18.5–₹18.75 crore India net on Day 3 (September 27, 2025), taking its total domestic net collection to about ₹122 crore in just three days
Pawan Kalyan’s action-packed entertainer has been a major draw in Telugu-speaking regions, with notable occupancies in Hyderabad, Vizag, and Warangal, while Hindi and Tamil markets show moderate traction
Box Office Momentum and Trends
OG opened with ₹21 crore from paid premieres followed by a massive ₹63.75 crore launch, though experienced a sharp drop on Day 2, a common trend in South Indian cinema post-historic openings
Occupancy rates on Day 3 held well at 42% in core Telugu circuits, showing resilience amid competition and mixed reviews; evening shows in select multiplexes saw audience boosts due to positive word-of-mouth
Early overseas data indicates a healthy start in markets like the UK (£300,000 in three days), with worldwide figures expected soon; the total two-day worldwide gross already crossed ₹171 crore

‘They Call Him OG’ has already positioned itself as Pawan Kalyan’s highest-grossing film, overtaking previous records set by Bheemla Nayak
