In an earlier interview, Pankaj Tripathi had revealed that it was Akshay Kumar who had recommended his name to the director Amit Rai for OMG 2, as the director was not too aware about his work. He also added that when Amit Rai was narrating the story to him, Akshay Kumar was present on video call and after a point he took over from the director and continued to narrate the film over the next few days.The actor also highlighted that the film always belongs to the director, but OMG 2 belongs as much to Akshay Kumar as without him the film could not have been made.
