Comparing the film to raising a child, Amit further said, ‘As far as I remember, I am the father of this film, I am the one who made it and took it forward. The proof of this is the certificate of the Screenwriters Association and the stamp which is put by the officials who look at the script, my name is on it.

Paresh Rawal woke up very late…
Amit Rai further said, ‘This could be Paresh Rawal’s personal opinion and I think the answer will be between him and the production company or between him and Akshay sir. I have written and produced the film. He woke up very late.

Got producer credit and money without any contribution…
Ashwin Varde also told that Paresh Rawal was given full respect and his part in the film. He said, ‘It is also important to mention that Paresh Rawal was given the credit of producer in OMG 2, even though he had no contribution in the film.
