OMG 2: Scenes Removed or Modified After High Court Intervention, Nationwide Debate Starts
The upcoming film OMG 2, starring Akshay Kumar, has been mired in controversy after the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) ordered the removal or modification of several scenes. The film, which is a sequel to the 2009 film Oh My God!, deals with the sensitive topic of religion.
The CBFC's decision has sparked a nationwide debate, with some people arguing that the film is blasphemous and should not be released, while others believe that it is a valuable film that raises important questions about religion.
The high court has now intervened in the matter and ordered the CBFC to reconsider its decision. The court has also asked the government to set up a committee to review the film and make recommendations on whether it should be released.
The controversy surrounding OMG 2 highlights the challenges of making films about religion in India. The country is home to a diverse range of religious beliefs, and any film that deals with religion is likely to be met with controversy.
The high court's intervention is a welcome step, as it allows for a more open and transparent discussion about the film. It is hoped that the committee will be able to make a balanced and informed decision about whether the film should be released.
Here are some of the scenes that have been removed or modified:
- A scene in which Akshay Kumar's character is shown drinking alcohol.
- A scene in which the character of Lord Shiva is shown in an intoxicated state.
- A scene in which a condom is shown.
- A scene in which a judge is shown clicking a selfie in court.
The controversy surrounding OMG 2 has sparked a nationwide debate about the following issues:
- The right to freedom of expression.
- The role of religion in society.
- The censorship of films.
The debate is likely to continue for some time, and it is unclear how it will be resolved. However, the controversy has certainly raised important questions about these issues.
