Film critic Saibal Chatterjee, in his NDTV review, gave 2 out of 5 stars to Akshay Kumar’s OMG 2. Talking in regards to the film, he added, “God’s messenger in OMG is embodied by a flamboyant Akshay Kumar. The star’s presence in the film is understandable. It enhances the box-office potential of the venture. But why Kanti Sharan Mudgal would need divine intervention to sort out his and his son’s everyday problems in the real world is never clearly and convincingly established.”

The movie additionally stars Yami Gautam in an necessary position.
