After that, he made a film but people told him that he could not show this film. Amit Rai then makes a big reveal that the script of OMG 2 was rejected by big producers.

Akshay pens a thank you note for fans

Rai shares Karan Johar, Ashutosh Gowariker and more had rejected the script. He asks if they know what he went through after the rejections. It was Akshay Kumar who came to his rescue. The Sooryavanshi actor showed courage to back the new movie. The OMG 2 director shares Akshay was very open to the script and felt the film needed to be made. Rai met Akshay through Ashwin Varde, Vipul D Shah and Rajesh Bahl. Had Akshay not backed him, the script would have been sitting in some corner, claims the director. Yet, after putting in about Rs 50 crores and getting an actor in the movie, CBFC said that they could not show it.

OMG 2 was given an 'A' rating and had to undergo certain changes suggested by the revising committee after which it was given a clearance. The 'A' certification could have hampered the business, don't you guys think? Despite that, OMG 2 has earned about Rs 73.67 crores at the box office. By the end of this week, the film is likely to enter the Rs 100 crore club. Meanwhile, recently, Akshay Kumar thanked fans for accepting both Gadar 2 and OMG 2.
