Earlier, there were speculations about Paresh Rawal leading the sequel much like the first part, but the involvement of Pankaj Tripathi came in as a surprise to all. According to a source, “Paresh was definitely the first choice for Oh My God 2. In fact, the makers had even started a conversation with him. However, the actor believed that he deserved money over and above his market value as he was the lead actor in the first part and was a major reason for its success. However, the makers felt that paying more would take the budget haywire. Paresh then gave another proposal of entering into a profit-sharing deal, however, even that didn’t work out as there were multiple producers involved in the project. After multiple attempts to be on the same page, the monetary deal didn’t work out and eventually Paresh decided to part ways.”
