Amit Rai brought up a sensitive topic on OMG 2 more than two years ago. The director is back in form once again as he has explored a new subject in Ohh My Dog, which is releasing on August 7, 2026, and the paid previews have started on August 6, 2026.
The reactions from the paid previews are already out now on social media. Most of them called it a heartfelt film with two parallel stories. People appreciated how both plots are linked through the loyalty of dogs.
Netizens praised how the concept of dogs has been used. They said that there are moments that will make audiences emotional and are going to be hard-hitting for pet owners. The themes of love and courage are an important part of the storyline, which has received equal appreciation.
Online users have also liked the fact that the movie did not depend on CGI dogs and brought real dogs to make the emotions connect with the audience. The performances of the leads are also being loved.
On the other hand, some stated that the pacing was very slow, although there is hardly any moment that will make audiences bored. Netizens wrote that the writing could have been sharper in a few places and the movie could have reduced its length, making it more engaging until the end.
The one thing that has received heavy criticism is the screen time of Pankaj Tripathi. People wrote that the actor deserved a bigger role in the film and questioned the reasons for which he was given so little screen time.
Trade experts stated that although the movie is receiving positive reviews, it is not enough to save the film at the box office. With Spider-Man: Brand New Day and The Odyssey dominating the market by pulling in large numbers of audiences, let’s wait and see whether Ohh My Dog will survive.
