Amit Rai directorial Ohh My Dog gets U/A certificate after CBFC orders 7 changes

Here's the latest update from the Bollywood world:

What the CBFC has flagged Among the changes ordered, references to brands including ‘Truecaller’ and ‘Dettol’ have been muted, as has a cuss word used in the movie. A scene involving a dog has been shortened by two seconds, while a photo frame of Lord Hanuman appearing in another sequence has been blurred.

Adding to this, The board has also directed the team to add two disclaimers, one addressing child labour, since the theme features in the movie’s narrative, and another on human trafficking.

Meanwhile, Rai calls the process smooth this time In conversation with Variety India about the certification, Rai shared he was pleased with how things had gone this time around, calling the suggested cuts workable. “I am supremely happy. They have given me cuts that are feasible,” he shared.

Notably, The experience stands in sharp contrast to Rai’s last outing with OMG 2 , which went through a far more drawn out certification process. That movie eventually received an A certificate after close to 85 modifications, a call that shut out the younger viewers it was originally aimed at.

As per the latest buzz, A story built around a child and his dog Ohh My Dog brings Amit Rai back into the director’s chair after a gap, with a cast that includes Pankaj Tripathi, Pawan Malhotra, Maahi Rai, Rajesh Kumar and Geeta Agrawal Sharma.

In further updates, The movie also features canine performers Oscar and Bruno, alongside more than 250 dogs in total, as it traces the bond between a young child and his pet.

On top of that, Staying true to Rai’s known style, the movie weaves together humour, emotion and social commentary. Ohh My Dog is scheduled to rollout in theatres on July 31.
