Oh My God -2: A Film That Every Indian should Watch

Many sexologists, like Dr. Prakash Kothari, believe that masturbation is not only normal and healthy but also frequently appropriate for use as an adult. According to statistics, the most of us must have done so while we were teenagers. It is seen as necessary for leading a healthy life as well.Due to a dearth of sex education, I myself had sought the counsel of Dr. Shiv Narayan Singh, a well-known physician from Patna, after suffering from depression for months as a result of masturbating. I used to see a lot of teenage students in the schools where I worked as a psychologist for the Delhi government’s education division who had similar problems.

In his most recent film, “Oh My God-2,” director Amit Rai raises the question of whether sex education must be taught in schools by using persuasive arguments and fascinating cinematic techniques. On behalf of his child, Kanti Mudgal (Pankaj Tripathi), a Shiv bhakt and priest at the Mahakal temple in Ujjain, sues himself, the institution, and those in charge of the sex market for propagating false information.

Due to peer pressure, his kid succumbs to the habit of masturbating.He attempts suicide after being expelled from school for masturbating in the locker room. His father makes numerous attempts to save and normalise his son, but to no avail. To lead and assist his devotee, Lord Shiva (Akshay Kumar) physically appears. As a result of pressure from the Censor Board, this character is transformed to Shiva’s Gana, on whose recommendation he launches a lawsuit. After the interval, the entire movie is centred around the case’s trial.

I’m curious as to why the censor board gave it a ‘A’ (Adult) certificate and a +18 rating considering that the entire movie is devoid of any sexual content, offensive language, or even a single kiss or hug. This movie is so significant and instructive for nations like India that it ought to be screened in all of the nation’s colleges and schools. This movie does not contain any preaching, intolerance, or dialogue play. Everything is explained using entertainment-oriented grammar. The British movie “How to Have Sex,” directed by Mollie Manning Walker, won the Best Feature Film Prize in the Un Certain Regard category at the 76th Cannes Film Festival this year.

The movie “Oh My God-2″ directed by Amit Rai will debut in theatres tomorrow, Friday, August 11. Those who have seen Amit Rai’s other works (Road to Sangam, I Pad) are aware of his brilliance as a writer-director. He is a specialist at deflecting attention from crowded situations.He is familiar with the cinematic conventions surrounding the melodrama of interpersonal conflict and its tensions in everyday life, without which the majority of Mumbai films falter. He also wrote the film’s screenplay, which is so tightly crafted that the audience never gets to see the mobile phone even once.

The second unique quality is that the actors convey more through gestures than they do through language. People from all around the world criticise Mumbai films for having performers who talk nonstop and cameras that are 90% focused on shooting close-ups of their faces. Amit Rai has produced an appealing atmosphere and setting in the movie by staying away from both of these elements.He did a fantastic job working with a typecast actor like Akshay Kumar, but Pankaj Tripathi is the real star of this movie.

His acting is not only powerful but also unparalleled. It’s wonderful how silent and innocent his facial expressions are. He is adept at performing magic in an instant. When such seasoned actors collaborate with a superstar, there are numerous risks. Pankaj Tripathi has developed a strong rapport with Akshay Kumar while avoiding all of those pitfalls. Whether it’s Govind Namdev playing the priest of Ujjain’s Mahakal temple, Brijendra Kala playing a doctor, printing pollen to play a chemist, or Arun Govil playing the headmaster of the school, Amit Rai has gotten his performers to deliver even in little roles.

The entire story was related in court by Arya Sharma, the daughter of Tejendra Sharma, a writer who lives in London, who was playing a disguised prostitute. She and Aamir Khan collaborated on a successful film called Lal Singh Chadha. Tomorrow also sees the release of her second movie, Gadar 2, starring Sunny Deol. Pawan Malhotra, who plays the part of the Sessions Judge, has brought good effect to the screenplay at various points with his improvisation. Lawyer Yami Gautam is playing the part. In addition to this, numerous actors have made appearances in lesser parts. The dialogues contain a small amount of Malwa, which fosters humour and compassion..

‘Oh My God-2’s’ setting is strangely reminiscent of the cities and villages we live in.” The town of Ujjyani is merely a metaphor. The film stands on its own, unaffected by the total of twenty-four cuts and the censor board’s unwillingness to compromise. It is important to remember that the same Censor Board that issued Oh My God an A (Adult) and +18 year rating certificate instead of a UA in several Muslim nations only gave the picture a Releasing with one Cut and +12 years rating in Adipurush.
