Pawan Kalyan’s OG promised fireworks on screen, but the first blast came from the telangana high court instead. Just days before the mass release, the HC suspended the state government’s order allowing inflated ticket prices and special benefit shows. What was pitched as a mega celebration for fans has now turned into a courtroom cliffhanger, leaving audiences, distributors, and even the government scrambling for answers.
1. Booked OG Tickets at Sky-High Prices? The HC Just Pulled the Rug
Thousands of fans rushed to book tickets at jacked-up rates, flaunting their loyalty. Now, with the HC suspension, no one knows if they’ll be refunded or just left high and dry.
2. Government’s Overreach Exposed
The petition revealed that only the hyderabad Police Commissioner and district Collectors have the legal right to approve ticket hikes. Translation? The telangana government overstepped big time — and got caught red-handed.
3. Fans in telangana Get court Drama, Andhra Gets cinema Nirvana
While andhra pradesh sails smoothly with normal OG screenings, telangana fans are stuck in a mess. One state is celebrating, the other is calculating refunds. The contrast is brutal.
4. Distributors’ Dilemma: Legal Battle or Financial Bloodbath?
Producers and distributors were banking on those inflated tickets to rake in massive opening-day numbers. Now they either fight it out in court or bleed losses while Andhra enjoys the box office boom.
5. Refund Roulette: Will Fans Get Their Money Back?
No clarity yet. Will the extra amount be refunded? Will tickets be revalidated at normal rates? Or will fans be forced to swallow the loss for their fandom? Suspense is thicker than the OG trailer.
6. Fresh Orders Could Save the Day — But Who Will Blink First?
Most likely, the hyderabad Police Commissioner and district Collectors will re-issue fresh approvals for higher rates. But until then, telangana fans are in legal limbo while the hype meter keeps ticking.
7. HC Has the Last Laugh, For Now
The state tried to gift OG a ‘mega advantage’. The HC just showed who the real boss is. One thing’s clear: in this battle of politics, power, and Pawan, the high court just stole the opening scene.
🔥 Bottom Line:
OG is still roaring towards screens, but Telangana’s high court has ensured it won’t be a smooth takeoff. For fans, it’s no longer just about watching Pawan on screen — it’s about surviving the ticketing chaos off-screen.
