Sujeeth On Comparisons Between Pawan Kalyan’s OG And Ajith Kumar’s Good Bad Ugly
In an interview with Idlebrain, Sujeeth shared his perspective on the similarities audiences have noted between the two films. Sujeeth emphasized that he had conceived OG long before Adhik began working on Good Bad Ugly. “I released the teaser of OG before he even put pen to paper for Good Bad Ugly. I know him very well. Adhik genuinely loves me; he sent me a long message when I made Saaho. He texted me that he’s genuinely the biggest fan of my work. I have known him since his first film, Trisha Illana Nayanthara. I had even given him feedback for the film. So, I know he didn’t even start writing the story then,” he said.
The director noted that comparisons can be misleading when one film releases before the other. “But what happens is when I shoot with a katana and they do it too… they even released a song called OG Sambavam. When their material first came out, and mine comes later, it causes damage to me. But I’m happy for Adhik that he got this film after Mark Anthony. And I like Ajith too,” Sujeeth said.
They Call Him OG Cast
Apart from Pawan Kalyan, the film also features an ensemble cast including Emraan Hashmi, Prakash Raj, Arjun Das, Priyanka Mohan and Sriya Reddy in pivotal roles.
Set in the turbulent 1990s, the story follows Satya Dada (Prakash Raj), a Mumbai port tycoon whose empire is under threat by the ruthless Mirajkar (Tej Sapru) and his impulsive son Jimmy (Sudhev Nair). When a missing container containing explosives causes disruption, Jimmy unleashes violence, murdering everyone, including Satya Dada’s younger son. But the biggest surprise concerns Omi Bhau (Emraan Hashmi), a violent thug who wants the container.
With the city out of control, all eyes are on Ojas Gambheera, also known as OG (Pawan Kalyan), a once-feared criminal lord who is now living in exile. He unwillingly returns to Mumbai, laying the groundwork for an outpouring of vengeance. Who is OG, why did he disappear, and how is he related to Satya Dada? The film addresses these themes while setting up a more intense confrontation with Omi Bhau.
