The Indian Express’ Shubhra Gupta gave the film 3.5 stars. A part of the review read, “I went into OMG 2 with a great deal of trepidation. This is 2023, and a different India. It’s been a while since I enjoyed an Akshay Kumar performance as much as this one. And I haven’t been taken by surprise as much as I was in OMG 2, in the best way possible.”
