Pawan Kalyan Drops Captivating Haiku ‘Washi Yo Washi’ from ‘They Call Him OG’!

The makers of director Sujeeth’s eagerly awaited action extravaganza, ‘They Call Him OG’, featuring actor Pawan Kalyan in the lead, have released the much-anticipated track ‘Washi Yo Washi’, sung by Pawan Kalyan himself, much to the delight of fans.

DVV Entertainment, the production house behind the film, took to its social media timelines to announce, “His voice. Our celebration. Have a blasting experience.”

About the Track

The track, delivered stunningly by Pawan Kalyan, is set to music by renowned music director Thaman. It essentially showcases Pawan Kalyan’s character addressing the antagonist, Omi, with a Haiku poem, expressing his intent to bring Omi down. Pawan Kalyan begins by saying, “I will tell you a Haiku that my guru told me when I was young. Listen.”

He then recites the Haiku in Japanese, detailing the steps one must take to hunt a wild eagle. The Haiku reads:

“WASHI YO WASHI (Eagle oh eagle)
Yasei no washi o korosu ni wa (To kill a wild eagle)
Mazu tsubasa o kiri otosu hitsu yoo ga aru (You need to cut its wings first).”

The subsequent lines further elaborate the hunting process:

“Jimen ni ochitara..me o eguri dasu (When it falls on the ground, you pluck its eyes)
Me ga mienaku nari, doko ni ikeba ii no ka wakara naku suru (It becomes blind and doesn’t know where to go).
Sokode ashi o kitte ugokenaku suru (That’s when you cut its legs and make it immobile).
Soshite, yasei no shinzou o eguri dasu noda (And that’s when you will pluck its wild heart out).
Washi Yo Washi.”

Fan Anticipation

The film has generated immense excitement among fans and film enthusiasts since the release of a glimpse video during Pawan Kalyan’s birthday celebration. This glimpse features the antagonist reading a letter to OG (played by Pawan Kalyan), saying, “Dear OG, Expecting to meet you, to talk to you and to kill you, your OMI. Happy birthday OG.” It juxtaposes this with intense visuals of the antagonist bludgeoning his victims with a baseball bat, giving viewers a taste of the brutal conflict OG faces. The trailer concludes with Pawan Kalyan wielding a Japanese Katana sword, teasing an intense confrontation.

Fans are left thrilled by this glimpse.
