Debutante directors have new stories to tell. Predictability is passé, unconventional is in.

First-time director Sourabh Shrivastava's OH, MY GOD!! may give an impression that it's yet another offshoot of BRUCE ALMIGHTY (the source of GOD TUSSI GREAT HO), but the fact is that OH, MY GOD!! reminds you of the Hrishikesh Mukherjee/Basu Chatterjee films of the 1970s and 1980s.

Like most debutante-helmed vehicles, OH, MY GOD!! comes with its share of plusses and minuses. In this case, the aces overpower the deficiencies. It has its heart in the right place.

Given the fact that OH, MY GOD!! has been shot in 19 days, it doesn't look like a hurried job at all. Sourabh takes a simple story of a simpleton and narrates it in the most simplistic manner.

OH, MY GOD!! rests on Vinay Pathak and Saurabh Shukla's firm shoulders and both deliver natural performances. Vinay is so very believable in the latter reels, while Saurabh is equally credible. Divya Dutta is first-rate as the doting wife.
