Akshay Kumar's upcoming film OMG 2 has been making headlines ever since it was reported that the film would be subject to additional scrutiny from the Censor Board to avoid the kind of criticism that Adipurush received earlier this year. Amid the reports, a source close to the project revealed that the social-themed comedy-drama has been passed without any deletions and that only a few modifications are required. Also, OMG 2 has received an Adults certification. "There are no cuts in the film, only a few modifications, which the makers discussed with the censor board members," a source close to the project said.
Speaking of the development, a source close to the project said, "For a UA certificate, the committee was asking for a lot of cuts. The makers didn't want to compromise with the sanctity of the film. So they chose to go with an Adults certification but keeping the integrity of the film intact and also adhering to and respecting the norms of the censor board."
The modifications that OMG 2 will make are both audio and visual in nature. Among the reported changes is one to Akshay Kumar's character - in the final cut, he will reportedly be shown as a messenger of Lord Shiva rather than the deity himself.
