The rain disrupted event

Speaking about the event, the pre-release event of the gangster action drama film, 'They Call Him OG', directed by Sujeeth, was organized on Sunday. Fans had gathered to watch the trailer of the film before its digital release and get a glimpse of their favorite star alongside the rest of the cast members. However, the event got interrupted due to heavy rain.

The pan-film India is set to release soon and is anticipated to be Pawan Kalyan's biggest opening. He was last seen in 'Hari Hara Veera Mallu', which, after the initial hype, received an underwhelming response.

It also stars Emraan Hashmi as the main antagonist, Priyanka Mohan as the female and Arjun Das, Prakash Raj and Sriya Reddy in key roles.
