OMG 2: 8 Films featuring God as a character

The sequel to the comedy satire Oh My God! starring Akshay Kumar releases in theatres this weekend. Titled, OMG 2, the film promises to be a hilarious satire with plenty of familiar plot devices that defined the previous film’s universal popularity. The sequel also stars Pankaj Tripathi and Yami Gautam in prominent roles, and it is directed by Amit Rai. Like the previous film in the franchise, this one falls in the bucket of films where God descends on Earth to engage with a human who finds himself in a rather perplexing situation. Now, films about such divine exchanges allow makers the creative liberty to delve into a range of topics. After all, given an opportunity, should you get a chance to meet your maker, what would be the first set of concerns or doubts you’d like clarified. From metaphysical questions on the meaning of life to flippant queries about the circumstances in after-life – there’s just so much material to work with. While some of these films have managed to realise these aspects to their potential, others have just made a mockery of the premise. For today’s List Hai Toh Hit Hai, we take a look at films and TV shows featuring such interactions with the Almighty.
