Pawan Kalyan’s new film OG will be his first collaboration with director Sujeeth.

Tipped to be a high-octane action-thriller, the film is expected to go on the floors next month. The film's team took to Twitter to share pictures from the launch ceremony.

The caption read, "Happy faces from the grand pooja ceremony of @PawanKalyan garu and @SujeethSign’s #OG (grinning face emoji). We promise to deliver nothing short of a BLOCKBUSTER (fire emoji). #FireStormIsComing (collision symbol emoji)."

Pawan Kalyan was last seen in Bheemla Nayak, which also starred Rana Daggubati. Directed by Saagar K Chandra, the film follows two men – a police SI and a suspended army havildar - who lock horns over an incident and their egos take them on a wild trip. Bheemla Nayak is the official remake of the Malayalam film Ayyappanum Koshiyum, which tells the story of its title characters in a tug of war to prove who’s powerful.

Biju Menon played the character of Ayyappan Nair in Ayyappanum Koshiyum, a policeman with unblemished records. Prithviraj was seen as a retired army havildar Koshy Kurian, who had put in 16 years of service.

In Bheemla Nayak, Pawan Kalyan reprised the role of Ayyappan Nair and Rana Daggubati essayed the role of Prithviraj. It’s the first time both Pawan Kalyan and Rana have featured together on screen.

Pawan Kalyan currently awaits the release of the upcoming Telugu period action drama, Hari Hara Veera Mallu, which marks his maiden collaboration with filmmaker Krish Jagrlamudi. The film’s teaser was released on his birthday in September last year.
