Directed by Amit Rai, known for his storytelling in movies like ‘Road To Sangam’ and ‘Tingya’ ‘OMG 2’ stands out as a refined and impactful depiction of family bonds and the importance of sex education.
In a country like India, where sex education is often approached cautiously, the film fearlessly breaks free from constraints delivering its message with sensitivity and clarity.
The story revolves around Kanti Sharan Mudgal, a symbol of simplicity and devotion to both his family and Lord Shiva as a father and devoted husband, Kanti’s main focus is the well-being and enlightenment of his loved ones. Through Kanti’s perspective, the movie captures the emotions, challenges and complexities inherent in every parent-child relationship providing audiences with a viewpoint on societal norms.
When tragedy strikes and Kanti faces society’s gaze, he is tormented by the realization that his son’s situation arises from myths and misconceptions. However, amidst this abyss of despair, there emerges a glimmer of hope and guidance in the form of an emissary representing Lord Shiva—a portrayal by Akshay Kumar. This celestial guidance propels Kanti towards bravery and righteousness.
With this newfound understanding and determination driving him, Kanti fearlessly takes on the system. He emphasizes the importance of a rounded education, pointing out how the school has failed to provide his child with the knowledge to navigate sensitive subjects with confidence.
