#BoxOfficeBuzz: 'OMG 2' marks underwhelming start; sells 10,000+ tickets
What's the story
OMG 2 is finally set for release after a certification tiff with the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC). The film has some buzz and it can end Akshay Kumar's drought at the box office. However, it is pitted against Sunny Deol's Gadar 2. As of now, the advance booking figures are quite underwhelming for a Kumar film.
