Pawan Kalyan with director Sujeeth

OG is one of the biggest hits in Telugu cinema, as it has made over Rs 200 crore at the box office and is still running in a few theaters despite its OTT release date being announced. OG will be available for streaming on Netflix from October 23, 2025, and there is massive hype for this film.

Sujeeth's remuneration for OG becomes a talking point

Ahead of the OTT release, we at OTTplay reveal how much the director Sujeeth was paid for the film. One of the sources close to the film has revealed to us that Sujeeth was paid a whopping Rs 6 crore to direct the film. Sujeeth is just two films old, and his last film, Saaho with Prabhas, was a below-average fare at the box office. But still, Pawan Kalyan showed a lot of belief in him and went all out for the action drama.

Sujeeth did not disappoint the expectations laid on him and gave the makers a blockbuster hit at the box office. He is now being hailed as the next big thing in Telugu cinema, and several producers are after him to direct a film under their banner.

Sujeeth showcased Pawan Kalyan like never before, as fans were shocked to see Pawan Kalyan perform with such ease for the first time in his career. The manner in which Sujeeth extracted a performance from Pawan, got a solid score composed by Thaman, and presented stylish action, all this helped the film end as a big hit at the box office.

Sujeeth will direct Nani in his next

As of now, Sujeeth is busy prepping for his new action drama, which has Nani as the main lead. There is also news that Sujeeth has an idea to make a sequel to OG, but there is no confirmation about this. For now, he has made headlines all over.
