OMG -2 Review

Pleasures are as necessary for the well-being of the body as food, and are consequently, equally required -Vatsyayana author of Kamasutra



OMG-2 has been an incredibly progressive film, which touches the Indian taboo subjects in a very gracious manner. The film deals with the topic of Sex education in a very open manner with proper decorum.

Coming to the topic of Sex Education, if it should be imparted to the students, I am of the strong opinion that it should be but in an Indian way.

Indian Tantra Shastras are full of Shringar Ras (erotica) and I am sure India can impart sex education in an effective manner much better than western counterparts. There are many tests other than the Kamasutra’s which speaks about seduction (https://youtu.be/jnS66SszwEs) and sex education.

I am very sure that the children within the age group of 12-18 years are curious to know about sex and they would be better off being formally educated than without it.

Questions regarding masturbation, having sex with multiple partners, simultaneously, all arise in an inquisitive mind and should not be pushed under the carpet. How does he satisfy his curiosity? Are his parents able to answer him convincingly or should he be left to “google baba”.

Many crimes (cybersex) related to obscene videos of gfs being uploaded on the internet is common. For many it would be an unbearable trauma even leading to suicides. These are better off being formally addressed.

Is the society open to such change?

I believe the society was never ready for anything innovative or pathbreaking. It took reformers and innovators like Narayana Guru,Chattampi Swamikal, Martin Luther  to break the existing status quo.

Coming back to the film OMG-2 very disappointed with the film being given ‘A’ certification when the target audience for the film would be teenagers.

The current government seems to be conservative in its outlook in terms of its thoughts and actions and looks to impose its views on others which could be detrimental to a progressive nation like India.
