?15th?August is a day when you feel that yes you too have a #responsibility for Nation to play. Then for some time we feel that and then move out for further plans. So what did we do yearday? Siya woke and we showed her some patriotic clips and songs and then she got ready for her #playschool and her’s first Independence Day in-school celebrations. As we dropped her in School we planned to go for a Movie #OMG 2. And I can say that, I had the pleasure of watching "Oh My God 2", it left an indelible mark on my perspective. Not to write a review on it but cannot stop mentioning the much-needed thing that we miss in the era of Being Modern. The movie offers a compelling exploration of our responsibility as parents to ensure our children receive a well-rounded education, #preventing them from succumbing to misconceptions and hidden truths that can lead them astray.
Drawing #inspiration from the wisdom of ancient India, the film eloquently underscores the significance of #education that extends beyond #academics. It emphasizes the need to instill moral values in the concept that laymen call #vulgar and shape responsible #citizens, mirroring the enduring teachings that have guided generations. This thematic emphasis on holistic education is a poignant tribute to India's cultural heritage and its timeless insights.
Pankaj Tripathi ji's performance in "Oh My God 2" (#OMG2) once again cements his status as an exceptional actor. His portrayal adds depth and authenticity to the narrative, making his presence on screen a true delight. However, it's disappointing that #Akshay Kumar sir's role was not as sizable as one might have hoped. While his scenes carry an impact, I personally felt a more prominent presence like OMG 1 could have further enriched the storyline.
When I am mentioning OMG 1 then surely I am talking about a notable absence is Paresh Rawal ji, whose performance in the first "Oh My God" film left an indelible mark. Rawal's absence is palpable, as his contribution to the original film was a significant factor in its lasting impact. While the sequel offers its own merits, the absence of Rawal is a reminder of the unique charisma he brought to the previous narrative. As the credits rolled, I found myself reflecting on the movie's core message: the vital role parents play in shaping their children's understanding of the world. The film urges us to be proactive in addressing our children's questions and concerns, fostering an environment of open communication that prevents them from going haywire due to a lack of knowledge.
Honestly in my opinion, "Oh My God 2" is a thought-provoking cinematic experience that #underscores the importance of responsible parenting, a citizen, and education. While #Pankaj Tripathi's performance shines brightly and the film's emphasis on ancient Indian concepts is commendable, the limited presence of Akshay Kumar and the absence of Paresh Rawal leave room for a more impactful narrative. Nevertheless, the film leaves us with a resounding message: that as parents and educators, it is our duty to guide our children toward becoming informed, responsible, and compassionate citizens. The impact of the original "OMG" may never fade, but this sequel continues to stimulate important conversations about our role in shaping the next generation.
?I will surely recommend all to please go to the Movie. and share your thoughts, what you feel or want, A informed citizen or a confused, depressed, and sad chap.?
