There are plenty of instant reactions from film circles and movie lovers on Venkatesh taking up the project of ‘Of My God’ remake when everyone expected Pawan Kalyan to do the honors. The original Bollywood version of ‘OMG’ was a critically acclaimed film with Akshay Kumar seen as Lord Krishna and Paresh Rawal as an atheist. Conversations and some really mind stirring scenes between these two performers stood as special attractions if the film.
Firstly, Pawan Kalyan and director Sampat Nandi thought of remaking the project in Telugu but later struck to ‘Gabbar Singh 2.’ With Suresh Babu having bagged the remake rights, he is interested in casting Venky and Rajendra Prasad as top leads. ‘Tadakha’ director Dolly is assigned the task to complete the script. For Venky, this is not new because he enjoys doing remakes and Rajendra Prasad will be an apt fit as Paresh Rawal. Well, the dichotomy in schools of belief and non-belief in god will be an interesting subject but how far this guarantees commercial success will be doubtful. This factor might have deterred Pawan from attempting this remake.
