The Filmy Charcha Review Of OMG 2
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐
At the heart of the film “OMG 2” lies a thought-provoking discourse on the significance of sex education, shedding light on why its incorporation into school curricula is crucial. The film explores a puzzling irony, even though it promotes sex education for teenagers, it received an “A” rating from the Censor board. The sequel to “OMG,” called “OMG 2,” shines a spotlight on a fascinating contrast as it delves into the connection between sex education and divine intervention. However, as the narrative unfolds, a sense of incongruity emerges. While the movie fervently delves into the taboo subject of sex education, the seamless connection with the divine realm – as suggested by the film’s name – eludes discernible comprehension. The main question remains, was the concept impactful for divine help, like the messenger for Kanti Sharan?
It champions the necessity of sex education while simultaneously presenting a divine connection that might appear tangential. Despite the commendable endeavor to explore a crucial topic, the seamless intertwining of divine elements with the societal taboo feels like a missed opportunity to strike a harmonious chord.

Despite the adult certification, “OMG 2” has managed to captivate audiences and garner substantial box office collections, highlighting its appeal and success at the theaters.
