Pawan Kalyan Confirms ‘OG’ Prequel and Sequel as Week-Two Box Office Softens

The star set the stage for an ‘OG’ universe following a front‑loaded start with a visible week‑two slowdown.

Overview

  • Pawan Kalyan announced both a prequel and a sequel at the film’s success meet, citing the reception as motivation to extend the story with director Sujeeth.
  • Industry tracker Sacnilk estimates day‑9 India net at about Rs 4.5–4.8 crore, taking the domestic net to roughly Rs 174 crore and marking the lowest single‑day take so far.
  • The film posted a robust opening week, with Sacnilk pegging week‑one India net around Rs 169.3 crore and opening‑day collections near the Rs 70 crore mark across languages.
  • Competition from new releases, especially Rishab Shetty’s Kantara: Chapter 1, has reduced show counts and pressured OG’s second‑week holds.
  • Reports suggest Netflix has acquired digital rights and may stream an extended cut later in October, though no official confirmation has been issued; Kalyan also urged fans to halt ‘fan wars.’
