‘I forgot that I am Deputy Chief Minister’

Pawan Kalyan attended the event in an all-black ensemble, with the costumes signifying his character in They Call Him OG. Fans went berserk when they saw Pawan in such an attire, and his gesture was certainly one of biggest surprises of the night. “I never attended any event in my film costumes, but I did it for the first time only for my fans,” said Pawan. “Director Sujeeth pulled me into the world of OG so much that I forgot that I am Deputy Chief Minister and wielded the sword here at the event,” Pawan joked, adding that he was impressed with Sujeeth’s style of filmmaking. “The way he narrates the story may be short but he executes it effectively. The stylized action sequences is proof enough. Working for the film gave me the kind of high I experienced during Khushi (2001).”

Pawan Kalyan sings on stage

Music composer Thaman and his team lit up the crowd with a spectacular live performance. But the biggest highlight of the evening came when Pawan Kalyan himself sang, Washi Yo Washi track live on stage, much to the fans thrill. “Washi Yo Washi is actually a Japanese haiku. I don’t know Japanese, but I learned the language for this song,” shared the actor. Emraan Hashmi, Priyanka Arul Mohan, Shriya Reddy, Arjun Das and DVV Danayya also attended the event. They Call Him OG is set for a release on September 25, 2025.
