Positive Reviews Fuel Hopes for Growth

Despite the drop, trade analysts believe that the film has the potential to recover over the weekend. With glowing word-of-mouth and strong fan support, 'They Call Him OG' could see a resurgence in ticket sales. However, the release of Rishab Shetty’s much-awaited 'Kantara Chapter 1' on October 2 might shake up the box office dynamics next week.
