Akshay Kumar Sonakshi Sinha Oh My God Hindi Movie Review - Oh My God Movie Rating
Story :
For popular art, it is considered taboo to question religious dogma. Somewhere deep within us we all know ritualistic religiosity is a multi-crore business in our country.But who dares to raise a voice against the deplorable extravagance which is meant to please the Gods?
That amazingly skilled actor Paresh Rawal does exactly that. He raises a voice against organised religion and the merchandising of faith whereby a common man's threshold of belief in the divine power is weighed against the amount of money he rustles up to appease the Gods. The point, made with telling acerbity in OMG is that God doesn't want our money.
Akshay kumar role is sketchy in comparison with the sharp lines used for portraying Kanjilal. In the absence of an existential persuasion in his arguments 'God', he resorts to homilies and half-smiles all flashed in a hazily captured image of a God who rides a Harley Davidson.
Negatives :
On the minus side there is a conspicuous staginess in the verbosity that is ironically the backbone of the proceedings. A film like OMG is near-extinct in mainstream Hindi cinema. It dares to raise questions that mass-oriented cinema generally shies away from. For this display of creative daring, producer AkshayKumar may be excused his vanity of playing God.
