With a week remaining to the release of Amit Rai-directed 'OMG 2', the makers have dropped the trailer of the film giving an insight into its theme. In the first part, released in 2012, Paresh Rawal's atheist character was seen taking up a case against God after his shop gets destroyed following an earthquake. In the sequel, a devotee played by Pankaj Tripathi fights a legal battle against his son's school.

The trailer begins with Lord Shiva telling Nandi, the bull to send a trusted aide to earth to help his devotee as he will soon be faced with a big problem. We are introduced to Pankaj Tripathi as Kantisaran Mudgal and his son. While not much is revealed, we get a hint that his son does something he is not supposed and it also involves a shocking video of the act. While Kantisaran condemns his son, he decides to fight for him and takes up a case against the school.

Yami Gautam plays a lawyer who fights the case on behalf of the school. Akshay Kumar as Lord Shiva comes to Kantisaran's aide. Like the previous film, in this film as well, he pretends to be human while being aware of his Godly self.

Meanwhile, talking about the censorship matter around the film, the CBFC had initially demanded over 20 cuts and changes in Akshay Kumar's character who plays Lord Shiva. According to latest reports in Bollywood Hungama, a source revealed, "The film has been passed by the CBFC but with an ‘A' certificate. The makers tried their best to get a U/A certificate as they believe that the under-18 crowd should watch their film for its message. However, that would have meant accepting several cuts." The reports state that the team has been suggested audio cuts and no visual cuts.

The censor certificate for the Amit Rai directorial was given on July 31, 11 days before its scheduled theatrical release. The film also stars Yami Gautam and Pankaj Tripathi in pivotal roles.

Akshay Kumar's film will face a clash with Sunny Deol's 'Gadar 2' at the box office as both films will be released on August 11.
