Pawan Kalyan’s latest sensation OG is rewriting records at the North American box office. Even before entering its second week, the film has stormed into the 5 million dollar club, a huge milestone that didn’t come easy. Behind this success was a lot of planning, hard work, and a fair share of struggles.
The journey began with advance bookings that started a month in advance. The North America Distributors Prathyangira Cinemas, carefully locked theatres by understanding the craze among fans, which gave the collections a strong start.
Another big factor was the constant rise in screens. The team quickly sensed the massive interest among NRIs in the US and kept increasing show counts. Even when issues popped up in places like Canada, where local buyer disputes almost led to show cancellations, the team stayed firm and resolved them without panic.
Content delivery also became a last-minute headache. At one point, the second half of the film wasn’t ready until the final moments, and shipping physical drives to theatres turned into a huge challenge. Here, Pawan Kalyan’s overseas fans played a heroic role. Many fans personally stepped in, carried the drives like couriers, and ensured theatres received them just in time.
The North American distributor also deserves credit for not giving in to pressure. Instead of cancelling shows, they stood firm, trusted the makers and fans, and worked tirelessly to make sure premieres happened on time. This determination paid off, audiences enjoyed the shows as scheduled, and the box office magic followed.
If even one step in this chain had gone wrong, the numbers would have been a mess. But with solid planning, fan dedication, and timely execution, the story ended on a happy note with OG roaring past the 5 million mark.
