Pawan Kalyan's OG will stream with Kannada audio; Mahira maker Mahesh Gowda returns

In the weeks since Kantara Chapter 1 hit theatres, there’s not been much by way of new releases in theatres or on OTT for Kannada audiences. Last week, two films should have made it, but only one, Elumale, did on Zee5 (and OTTplay Premium), while Andondittu Kaala made a blink-and-you-miss appearance on Prime Video and then disappeared.
