The much-awaited action drama OG is racing towards its worldwide release on September 25, 2025, with fans of Power Star Pawan Kalyan and movie lovers alike abuzz with anticipation. At the heart of all the excitement is actress Priyanka Arul Mohan, who plays the lead role of Kanmani—a character she describes as one of the dearest in her career.
On Portraying Kanmani
Priyanka fondly recalls her journey with OG, which has spanned almost two and a half years. “Portraying Kanmani is a privilege. This role is not only special among all the characters I’ve played, but it’s also one that will always stay close to my heart. Sharing the screen with Pawan Kalyan was a dream come true. He’s an inspiration—always humble, kind, and motivating on set,” says Priyanka.
A Role Rooted in the 80s–90s
Set in the 1980s–1990s, the film sees Kanmani as a gentle, innocent woman deeply in love with the protagonist, Gambheera. Her character brings emotional weight to the story, helping to redefine the lead’s journey. The period styling and subtle nuances reflect the simplicity and inner strength of Kanmani.
Musical Marvels & Teamwork
Working with composer Thaman S for the first time was a memorable experience for Priyanka. The chartbuster ‘Suvvi Suvvi’ left her thrilled. “When I heard the first track, I knew instantly it would connect with audiences, and seeing their love after the song’s release made me truly happy.” The film’s soundtrack is already creating ripples ahead of the release.
The Pawan Kalyan Craze
Even before joining OG, Priyanka was aware of Pawan Kalyan’s widespread popularity, but being on set revealed the true magnitude of his following. “Despite his stardom, he remains simple and grounded. Our conversations ranged from books, history, and movies to life and people in general. He’s deeply interested in the world beyond cinema.”
Insights on Shooting & Teamwork
“Pawan Kalyan is deeply collaborative, often discussing scenes with the director and actors, offering insightful suggestions that enhance every moment on screen. It’s a joy to work in such a creative atmosphere,” she shares.
Family Drama & Visual Grandeur
While OG is packed with action, Priyanka assures that it’s also a story rich in family emotions and drama. With powerful visuals and a layered narrative, the film promises to appeal equally to action lovers and those who appreciate heartfelt stories.
Director & Production
Working with director Sujeeth and the team at DVV Entertainment (DVV Danayya, Kalyan Dasari) felt like being part of a family, says Priyanka. “Sujeeth knows exactly what he wants from each scene and actor. He was key in shaping my character and look. The producers make everyone feel at home—I’ve had the privilege of doing two films with their banner.”
Anticipation & Next Steps
As the trailer’s arrival draws near and promotion heats up, Priyanka is looking forward to release day, eager to experience OG with audiences and die-hard PSPK fans in theaters. She’s also exploring new projects in Telugu and other languages, hinting at more exciting roles in the future.
OG, starring Pawan Kalyan, Priyanka Arul Mohan, Emraan Hashmi, and a formidable cast, directed by Sujeeth, produced by DVV Entertainment, hits theaters on September 25, 2025—with Kanmani’s journey promising to leave a lasting impression.
