Sujeeth breaks silence on rift rumours with 'OG' producer: 'Let’s keep the process respected'

Directed by Sujeeth, the film features Pawan Kalyan and Emraan Hashmi in the lead.

Director Sujeeth, who delivered one of the year's biggest blockbusters with 'They Call Him OG' starring Power Star Pawan Kalyan, has finally addressed the speculations about his alleged fallout with producer DVV Danayya.

In a long note shared on his X, Sujeeth wrote, “A lot is being said, but very few truly understand what it takes to carry a film from start to finish. The belief and strength my producer and team showed for OG can't be put into words. That's what gives this film its strength today.”

He continued, “It hasn't been easy for anyone, but every bit of effort came from a place of commitment. Let's keep the process respected. The love and madness shown by fans for Pawan Kalyan garu & OG make it all feel meaningful. Grateful to Danayya garu for his constant support and belief. With Love, Respect and Gratitude, Sujeeth.”

His post comes after several reports claimed that the director and producer had a disagreement during post-production, and that Sujeeth had even contributed a part of his own fees to finish the movie.

But now this post by Sujeeth, however, put an end to those rumours, reaffirming his respect for the RRR producer.

Interestingly, this isn’t the first time Sujeeth has expressed his appreciation for Danayya. Before OG’s release, he had penned an emotional thank-you note, saying,“‘They call him OG’ will be all yours in just few more hours... Excited, thrilled and at the same time a little sad that this journey of so many years is finally coming to an end and won't be the same from tomorrow. My deepest gratitude to my family and to everyone who stood by me at every step constantly pushing me forward. To my AD team and my technicians, I won't say more but I love you all. You stayed with me through every hurdle and every hiccup along the way.”

He had also specifically mentioned, “Thanks to Danayya garu and Kalyan Dasari for always being a pillar of strength and for trusting me throughout this journey.”

The director further acknowledged his core crew, saying, “To Thaman anna, for always being supportive and giving everything he has for this film. Navin Nooli bro, can't wait for the audience to witness your magic on screen. Ravi K. Chandran sir and Manoj sir your brilliance in the making has elevated everything. Raghav bro and Neel Darshan thank you for bringing in all the magic. and Sachin for the amazing work.”

Signing off, he had told fans,

“Today, I can feel the euphoria around and the madness you are showing is beyond surreal. Watch it, celebrate it, enjoy it. And remember this is only the beginning. With the right things falling into place, this world will only grow bigger from here. Love you my Powerstar.”

OG, headlined by Pawan Kalyan, also stars Emraan Hashmi, Priyanka Arul Mohan, Prakash Raj, and Sriya Reddy in pivotal roles.

Produced by DVV Danayya and Kalyan Dasari under DVV Entertainment, the same banner behind RRR, the film was hailed as one of 2025’s grandest cinematic events.

Shot by ace cinematographers Ravi K. Chandran and Manoj Paramahamsa, edited by Navin Nooli, and scored by Thaman S, OG lived up to its massive expectations after its worldwide release on September 25, nearly a year after the original scheduled date.
