Popular Bollywood actor Paresh Rawal has sparked a new controversy in the film industry by claiming that he wrote the screenplay for the hit film 'OMG 2' (OMG 2), but the filmmakers allegedly released it without crediting him.
The true author and director of the film, Amit Rai, reacted with anger to these allegations. He categorically rejected Paresh Rawal's claims, calling them fabricated. Amit Rai stated that he is the true creator of the film and possesses irrefutable legal evidence to support his position.
In an interview with Hindustan Times, Amit Rai expressed surprise and dissatisfaction with Paresh Rawal's statements. He questioned the basis of such claims, noting that Rawal was making unsubstantiated assertions. However, Rai acknowledged that Paresh Rawal is a highly respected and prominent artist in the industry, so he could not personally approach him to ask about the reasons for such a statement, but the truth is obvious to everyone.
Rai emotionally equated the film 'OMG 2' with his child. He emphasized that he was the sole creator from the beginning of work on the film until its completion. It was he who developed the story, bringing it to the level of school and university material. To confirm his words, Rai pointed to having a certificate from the Screenwriters Association (SWA) and an official stamp on the script bearing his name.
Amit Rai believes that Paresh Rawal should explain why he raised this issue after such a long period. He suggested that the answer might come from Paresh Rawal himself, the film's production company, or Akshay Kumar. With irony, Rai remarked: 'I wrote this film with complete honesty and then showed it on screen. So much time has passed since the film's release, and now he makes such statements. Frankly, he woke up very late.'
While the film's producer Ashwin Warde issued an official statement refuting Paresh Rawal's claims as false, director Amit Rai confirmed his stance by providing legal evidence. However, the film's lead actor and co-producer, Akshay Kumar, has not yet commented on this authorship dispute.
After resigning from the position of General Secretary of Shri Ramjanbhoomi Tirtha Kshetra Trust due to the case of donation embezzlement at the Ram Mandir temple, Champat Rai issued his first comment. He released a letter addressed to the followers of Rama, in which he called the accusations made against him unfounded and stated that he would temporarily remain silent.
In his letter, Champat Rai mentioned that various discussions are taking place surrounding the alleged embezzlement from the donation box on the premises of the Shri Ramjanbhoomi temple, which occurred on June 6, 2026. He also noted that numerous baseless accusations were personally leveled against him and announced that he had decided to remain silent.
He continued by mentioning that preliminary SIT reporting was presented at the trust meeting on July 6, which is now publicly available, although it was previously classified as strictly confidential. Champat Rai assured all readers that after receiving the final SIT report, he would provide answers to all raised questions in order, and the whole truth would be revealed.
Referring to his long public career, he recalled that the organization sent him to Ayodhya in 1991. He emphasized that he has been a propagandist for the last 45 years and stated that his life wherever he was was an open book. He concluded his address with a respectful bow to everyone.
