As previously reported, Telugu filmmakers have discovered a new obsession with casting prominent Bollywood actors as antagonists in their films. Saif Ali Khan, Sanjay Dutt, Nawazuddin Siddique, Arjun Rampal, and others are playing villains in several Telugu films now under production.
Emraan Hashmi makes his Telugu film debut, adding to the list.
Emraan Hashmi commanded the Bollywood industry in the 2000s with a streak of hits. He popularized kiss sequences in Indian movies. However, the actor has fallen out of favor in Bollywood and is now performing secondary roles.
Emraan Hashmi has accepted to play the antagonist in ‘OG’ against Pawan Kalyan. His name was revealed today by the makers.
“When we have the #OG, we should also have a badass who is powerful and striking…Presenting you all, the antagonist of #OG – @EmraanHashmi,” the team announced in a social media statement.
Sujeeth’s gangster drama “OG” is now under production. The film is being produced by DVV Danayya. Priyanka Arul Mohan is the heroine.
