OMG 2, a recent film starring Akshay Kumar, has become a success. Along with Viacom18 Studios and Wakaoo Films, Akshay also produces the movie, which also features Yami Gautam and Pankaj Tripathi. The film, which was directed by Amit Rai, has gotten favorable reviews from both the public and reviewers. It competes with Gadar 2 but is still doing well at the box office. The film’s sympathetic portrayal of the significance of sex education in schools is being praised by the audience, which is equally impressed by the film’s audacious endeavor. Amit Rai, a filmmaker, explained how the script’s daring plot caused production companies to reject it.
In terms of the plot of OMG 2, it discusses different problems that teenagers encounter, including the value of sex education in the classroom. OMG, 2 director Amit Rai claimed that it was challenging to locate a producer during a PTI interview. For the uninitiated, OMG 2 is a film that is made by Cape of Good Films and Wakaoo Films and distributed by Viacom 18 Studios.
According to the writer-director, a number of well-known producers had turned down offers to finance the movie. He claimed, “I visited nearly nine production companies, and the bulk of them rejected the script due to its audacity. Even someone stated, “It’s crass and gross.” I was surprised by it.
Regarding the same, Rai continued, “I was unsure of how we would produce this movie. Fortunately, someone referred me to Rajesh Behl, Vipul Shah, and Ashwin Varde. They brought me to Akshay Kumar, who told me that the topic was both fascinating and crucial. I think things get easier if you work with a producer like Akshay Kumar.
Amit added that they wanted to include the character of a lawyer in the sequel, preferably a female actor for the role in the courtroom scenes, as the original movie, headed by Paresh Rawal and Akshay Kumar, was mostly focused on the male characters. Yami Gautam plays Kamini Maheshwari, an advocate, in OMG 2.
The director remarked, “We thought if we could make something around ladies… because the first part was male-dominated. That’s why we chose to work with Yami for OMG 2. Then, we considered using a female attorney for the follow-up.
