Amit now has plans to make the film available on OTT for free to fulfill his vision. Amit also recalled facing trouble while trying to find a producer for the film.

OMG 2 is the sequel to Akshay Kumar’s 2012 film, Oh My God. The actor plays the role a messenger of Lord Shiva in the movie. The film was put on hold by the Censor Board and about 27 changes were directed to the filmmakers.
