OMG 2 has been the topic of conversation for the past few weeks because of problems the Central Board of Film Certification had with the movie.  The social comedy has finally received its censor certificate following all the negotiations with officials. The Akshay Kumar, Pankaj Tripathi, and Yami Gautam-led film directed by Amit Rai has received the ‘A – Adults Only’ certification and has a 2 hour, 36-minute approved runtime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cuts that the movie will need to make owing to censorship issues have been the talk of social media over the past few days. However, the movie won’t be cut, according to our sources involved in the production. The source said, after all the debates, the movie was approved without any changes. According to the source, the producers changed a few scenes, conversation lines, and characters after speaking with the censor board members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The OMG 2 team had initially fought for a U\/A Certificate, but after the revising committee demanded significant cutbacks to the narrative, the proposal was dropped. “The committee requested numerous edits for the U\/A certificate, which hindered the film’s plot. The makers of the film decided to proceed with an adult-only classification because they didn’t want to compromise the film’s essence. They have complied with the changes recommended by the board and will proceed with an A certificate, giving the audience an unaltered story-telling experience, the source continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Claims regarding a delay in the film’s release were circulating in the rumour mills, but these claims are false. As planned, OMG 2 will be released on August 11, the intensive marketing effort will start now. The trailer is anticipated to release in the next two days, according to the source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OMG 2 is a follow-up to the 2012 cult hit Oh My God, and the production team is optimistic that it will achieve the same success at the box office when it releases.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
