Coming back to Akshay, he is currently basking in the success of his movie OMG 2, along side Pankaj Tripathi and Yami Gautam. Yami, who played Kamini Maheshwari in ‘OMG 2,’ in an interaction with Hindustan Times mentioned that during the second lockdown, she got a call from Akshay Kumar. He said that he has come across one of the best scripts of his career and he really wants the story to come out. He then added that he would love to introduce the director Amit Rai to her for the narration of the story. After the narration, Yami was glad about the active conventions. She knew the subject would raise some questions and the team saw this as an opportunity to start a discussion rather than a debate.
‘OMG 2’ speaks about the need for sex education in the Indian education system. The film states how ‘kaam shastra’ has been a part of Indian society for decades, yet sex education is a taboo subject.
