The teaser of 'OMG 2' began with flashbacks from the first film of the franchise, 'OMG: Oh My God!', in which Akshay had assumed the role of Lord Krishna to instill a sense of devotion in an atheist Paresh Rawal.
However, Akshay's caption and the teaser hinted that the upcoming film will be more about reinstating Pankaj's faith in the Lord, whom he once prayed to with all his heart.
'OMG 2' is set to hit the silver screens on August 11, and it will clash with the sequel of Sunny Deol's 'Gadar'.
