Taking on the glorious avatar as Messenger of Lord Shiva, Akshay Kumar has yet again returned with another content-driven storyline, and the OMG 2 reactions on X (ex-Twitter) are raving about his grand transformation, alongside co-actors Pankaj Tripathi as Kanti Sharan Mudgal and Yami Gautam as Kamini Maheshwari. Directed and written by Amit Rai, the satirical comedy-drama is now playing in theatres, and also stars Arun Govil, Govind Namdev, Pavan Malhotra, Brijendra Kala among others.
The reactions listed for the newest Hindi sequel to the original 2012 Umesh Shukla directorial, markedly accentuate on the applause received by Kumar’s long-awaited return in the second movie. Shedding light on the less spoken issue of sex education in the nation, the movie revolves around Tripathi’s character, who takes to court to sue his son’s school’s authorities once the video of him masturbating in the school’s bathroom goes viral.
As can be expected with the film’s title, it also correlates the religious dialogue in this conversation. With this particularly sensitive focus on the matter, many X users have already added that OMG 2 is likely to hurt the wide audience’s sentiments with this approach of mingling the two sides.
Others have rather found the storyline to be quite touching and impactful and have lauded the lead actors – Pankaj Tripathi and Yami Gautam – for their top-notch acting chops. Tripathi’s onscreen contribution has especially been hailed as his career best by the viewers, much like how Kumar’s presence has again struck a chord with the audience. They’ve come forward with remarks like “sir’s screen presence as lord Shiva is a treat that you will never want to miss”.
Some SNS users have also spoken up about how this film could’ve easily been put down for an OTT release instead of a cinematic premiere. Moreover, the clashing theatrical drop of Sunny Deol’s Gadar 2 has raised the competitive spirit among the fans of the respective actors of the two movies. Common comments on the platform that state that Kumar’s film is unmissable added that it’s “definitely a must watch, movie is well written and storytelling is excellent”, are bound to push you to watch it and decide for yourself which of the two Hindi releases will overtake the other.
