OMG 2 has Controversial Scenes, as said by the Organisation
In the film, Akshay Kumar’s character, portraying Lord Shiva’s messenger, engages in actions that the organization views as disrespectful, including purchasing kachoris and taking a bath in a dirty pond. Parashar argued that these scenes tarnish the god’s image.
He demanded that both the censor board and the central government ban the movie, cautioning that unless this happens, protests will persist.
The discontent with the film is spreading to other cities as well. Sadhvi Rithambara of Vrindavan, founder of Durga Vahini, criticized the satirical comedy, accusing Bollywood of repeatedly showing audacity towards Hinduism due to its leniency. She emphasized that Hindu deities have been disrespected in films before and urged Hindus to vehemently protest against such portrayal.
