For those who don’t know, OMG 2 is the sequel to OMG, which was released in 2012 and starred Akshay alongside Paresh Rawal and Mithun Chakraborty. Since the recently released instalment involves the topic of s*x, it was given an A certificate by CBFC, whereas the film wanted U/A/.
In an interview with News18, Anurag Kashyap slammed CBFC for giving OMG 2 an A certificate and said, “This is something one has to deal with. Censor ko lataad padi na uss picture ke liye (the CBFC faced backlash for that movie). People blasted them. The true intention of a film will reach the audience one way or the other. You cannot stop people from feeling offended.”
