Why did OMG 2 go through a detailed review?
According to a report in Zoom TV, a source revealed, “Post the Adipurush fiasco, the Central Board Of Film Certification has been instructed to exercise extreme caution over any film with religious content. OMG 2 comes right after Adipurish and the CBFC has been asked to scrutinize the content minutely.”
Meanwhile, OMG 2 is set to release in theatres on August 11. The cast of the film also includes Yami Gautam, Arun Govil, Pankaj Tripathi, Govind Namdev, and others in key roles, apart from Akshay.
