'They Call Him OG' frenzy: Die-hard Pawan Kalyan fan buys special movie ticket for around Rs 1.30 lakh ahead of release - Report

Pawan Kalyan's upcoming gangster drama 'They Call Him OG', directed by Sujeeth, will be released soon. Ahead of the film's release on September 25, fans have been buzzing with excitement to watch the Power Star back on the big screens. Recently, a fan took his craze to another level as he bought a ticket to the film at a staggering price.

Ticket auction

According to The Hindu, Amudala Paramesh, a die-hard fan from Lakkaram village near Choutuppal, spent a staggering Rs 1,29,999 to purchase a benefit show ticket through a special auction. What made this even more remarkable was the fact that the ticket’s actual price was only Rs 800. The auction, held at Srinivasa Theatre for a 1 a.m. show on September 25, saw Paramesh outbid others to secure what could be called the "golden ticket."


The report also suggests that Paramesh revealed that his decision to buy the ticket was also to contribute to the actor-turned-politician's political journey. The entire amount is said to be donated to his party, the Jana Sena Party.

Star-studded pre-release event

The makers recently organized a pre-release event. 'OG' team was present at the event, with Pawan Kalyan making a grand entry holding a Katana, portraying his character from the film. Other cast members, including Emraan Hashmi, Priyanka Mohan, Arjun Das, Sriya Reddy and others were also present.

Fans disappointed over 'OG' trailer release event

The event had nearly 40,000 excited fans gathered to attend the event and watch the trailer, which was disrupted midday due to heavy rain. On the internet, fans have been expressing their frustration about the trailer release. Earlier, it was said to be released on Sunday morning, but it got delayed for a special screening in the evening. And after it, the production house is yet to release it on the digital space or make any announcement regarding it.
