Featured reviews
WOW, what a film, I was pretty much speechless after i exited the theater. The message this film gives is that god is in every human being, then why do we go looking for him in mandhirs, churches, mosaics, gurdwaras, etc Why has god and religion become a business, why do we spends millions and billions of dollars at religious places as people when we can take that same money and help the poor, won't god be more happy then. This and many more messages are conveyed in this movie through characters, like Kanji Bhai, Krishna, etc Another really plus point about the film is that it is told in a light hearted way, in a comedy, the film isn't very preachy and still conveys its beautiful and real message. For me when it comes to performances Paresh Rawal has just done such an amazing job, he deserves all the applauds, accolades, awards, in the world for his portrayal as Kanji bhai. Akshay Kumar as always is very good in a small but important role, his and Paresh's chemistry is just too good. Other notable performances Mithun, was really good as the sadhu, and so was Govind Namdev. Music was good and suited the film very well. All tech aspects were just perfect. Umesh Shukla the director is the heart of the film and he has done an incredible job, he deserves, a national award for his efforts, he was just that good. A special mention for the amazing dialogues very smart and well written,
So all in all this is must watch film for not just the people in India, but for everyone in the world. A masterpiece film, this should be India's official entry to the Oscars. its that good and beyond one of the best movies ever made in bollywood. 10 out 10 rating

We have always been taught that God is our father always fear God. But this movie say God is our best friend so love the Almighty. Excellent movie with hilarious content.
Movie is story of small Gujarati businessman Kanji Bhai superbly played by Paresh who doesn't believe in God. His life take a big turn when he lost everything in earth quake, Insurance company refuses to claim saying this is act of God and can't be claimed.Thus he decided to take big decision and movie is all about that decision.
Akshay played role of modern God. If you are thinking that why God is modern go watch a movie you will find a meaningful reason behind it. Akshay is excellent too.
Movie criticizes the big business that is based on selling God or we can say playing with emotion of people.
God is not in stones or temples. God is in emotions,humans. Do not donate big amount to temples just help the poor and God will be happy. Don't waste your time searching god here and there instead search in humanity. Be fearless and love the God.

OMG Oh My God! Is a wonderful film with an amazing message that everyone should apply in their lives!
Paresh Rawal delivers an outstanding performance, one of his best till date.
Akshay Kumar is top notch you can't think of anyone to do his role in the movie.
Mithun Chakraborty is fabulous as a fraud preacher.
Om Puri, Govind Namdeo, Mahesh Manjrekar and rest have played their roles perfectly.
There are some glitches in the movie like abrupt camera work but it has nothing to do with the story or screenplay.
Grip makes a movie perfect; That's what happens here, you'll get glued to your seats start to end!
I don't know how the play was, but I simply loved the movie.
After Watching OMG! My religion is OMG! Oh My God!
I'll rate it 8/10 Unmissable especially for "so called" religious people wasting time, money, milk and oil at temples.

its is the best movie in the resent time with descent story. everyone is gonna love this movie. it really impress me,,,
This movie is the perfect example of how a movie can be good without heroines and item numbers, or action and romance. Paresh Rawal should get national award for this movie,he gave his best. Akshay had a short role but he was best, he was perfect for the role of Krishna. I thought it will be a comedy movie, but after watching i will say the movie got everything,comedy, emotions, love, humanity.
Entry of Akshay Kumar was awesome. Mithun was awesome, loved his character, but Paresh stole the show along with Akshay. Even God will watch this movie and say OH MY GOD what a movie

First time i thought its a copy of Bruce almighty or something, but no, its a whole different concept. I think everyone should watch this movie once.
This movie tells a lot of reality which we never know or never wanted to know.
But I think Umesh has done a very good job. Even Paresh Rawal has done a great job.
This movie is worth watch in theaters. Teaches lots of stuff, depends on you what to take or not.
Guys don't think anything, just go and watch.
I ll suggest tell your parents to watch this movie as well.
I don't want to criticize other movies which copies the directions or screens from Hollywood, but this i feel, everything is original.
Yes some of the time you will feel, "aisa real life me kabhi nahi hota". but guys this is movie, and you can learn and take what you want.
