A merchant (Akshay Kumar) decides to sue God after his antique shop is destroyed in an earthquake and the insurance company denies his claim.

In the current atmosphere of rising conservatism and religious extremism, was it really possible to have a film which would talk up the ills attached to religious practices? Oh My God does this, and we commend the film for its subject and treatment.

Rated: 3/5

A delightfully amusing, clever and also progressive and daring satire with a strong Paresh Rawal and hilarious Akshay Kumar. It loses a bit of momentum towards the end, but overall, it’s still a movie well worth checking out.

Rated: 7/10

OMG walks a fine line between sermonizing and entertaining and has long patches of super-preachy kitsch. Yet the subject is so compelling that you come out with a smile on your face and perhaps a decision to open up your holy text.

Rated: 3/5

Shukla's fable takes its sweet time getting off the ground but ultimately proves to be an utterly adorable, nicely humanistic riff on the role of religion in an everyman's life.

One of my favs of all time. A film which goes against the religious practices while respecting God in a way. It has a groundbreaking script, brilliant performances and some well written dialogue. All in all, a must watch.

"OMG" is a decent satire from Bollywood. The movie does do a pretty good job of covering a lot of social topics and I thought Paresh Rawal is good in the lead role. The movie is definitely smart but I wasn't always entertained by it. I did feel that it dragged, particularly in the second half. However, I was fairly engaged with it and felt okay with watching it one time. I think the film "PK" from 2014 explores some similar topics in a far more entertaining way and I can't help compare the two because they feel so similar. This is an acceptable satirical story with solid messages at its center.
