O FOR OH MY GOD
The Movie “Oh My God” has a unique concept, unlike any other movie, with an extremely strong message, of not becoming the blind followers of those who try to play with innocent people’s faith and emotions in the name of God. The movie must be watched by both categories of people, those who have a strong belief in God and also who don’t. It brilliantly brought a harsh and hidden reality of so-called Godmen, who are running their Religious Businesses successfully from years by misusing and misguiding the pure, honest, religious people. In short, a completely entertaining, edifying movie with a sense of humor accompanied by prompt wittiness.
PLOTLINE:-
Kanji Lalji Mehta( Paresh Rawal), who does not believe in the entity of GOD, runs a small business of GOD idols and all the religious goods. Things turned upside down for Kanji when an earthquake came to his city and destroys only his shop, which was his major and only source of income, he contacted the insurance company to recover the loss, but nothing went in his favor, as insurance company denied to pay on the grounds of being an ‘act of God’, company pulls all is hand back by saying that Kanji has already signed the clause where it is mentioned, natural calamity does not cover the loss. Upset Kanji takes God, the so-called GODmen of the society and business holders of Religion to the court. With the help and guidance of a man Krishna Vasudeva Yadav (Akshay Kumar), although he is completely unaware of the real identity of Krishna( who is indeed a Lord Krishna) Kanji followed all the instructions given by Krishna. Kanji win the case in court by also revealing how religion becomes the victim of profit-making businesses, at last, Kanji found the faith in God.
MESSAGE FOR SOCIETY:-
1). The present scenario in which we are living, itself a proof that though the Temples, Mosques, Churches, are the holy places we believed for our GOD but to feel the real essence of the worship, only the faith with a true heart is the requirement, prayers are heard from everywhere.
2). Religion is made by a man with the only purpose to guide the spiritual conscience, to regularize the disciplined life, your conscience needs faith and true heart to connect with GOD, not even a particular language or words require, so do not be a part of the blind race.
3). Simply chanting mantras does not make you a certified cultivate or spiritual person, an act of humanity or compassion surely does, hence be the human first, own the heart which can feel the pain of others, a mind that can lead you through the rightful deeds.
4). Most importantly the movie also has given a perfect lesson about getting adequate insurance, also one should pay proper attention while signing on the written document.
A glimpse of one of my favorite dialogue that I truly believe in, from the court scene…
That is all for today see you tomorrow with another awe-inspiring character. Till then have a happy reading, leave with your comments and promise to be back tomorrow!!
