Talking about the film, director Amit Rai said he wanted to tell a story that connects with families and also spreads a message of kindness towards animals.
"Dogs teach us the purest form of love and loyalty without expecting anything in return. Through Ohh My Dog, I wanted to tell a story that is emotional, entertaining, and meaningful for every family. This is not just a film about a child and a dog; it is about learning to coexist with all living beings with compassion. If audiences walk away with a little more kindness in their hearts towards animals, I will feel this film has truly achieved its purpose."
The film is produced by Amit Rai, Rajesh Bhardwaj and Sana Warsi under the banners of Babulal Biscope and Thinking Hats Entertainment.

Pankaj Tripathi is a gem! But honestly, I hope this isn't just an emotional cash grab. The teaser with Amitabh's song is promising, but the plot sounds like many other dog films. Let's see if Amit Rai can bring something new to the table. Fingers crossed 🤞
As someone who volunteers at animal shelters, this movie warms my heart. The director's quote about dogs teaching pure love is spot on. India needs more films that encourage compassion for animals. The 250+ dogs in the cast sounds amazing—hope they were treated well on set. 🙏
I appreciate the message but honestly, Bollywood keeps making the same animal-centric films—Hachiko, A Dog's Purpose, etc. I wish they'd focus on original Indian stories instead of copying foreign concepts. Still, Maahi Rai and Pankaj Tripathi are good actors, so maybe it'll work. Let's hope for the best.
Ohh My Dog coming after Oh My God 2? Amit Rai is really into 'Oh' series! 😂 But jokes aside, I'll watch this for the dogs. The teaser with Bachchan sir's voice gave me goosebumps. The family audience will love it for sure. Just hope it doesn't get too preachy about animal rights.
Finally a clean family film without item numbers and vulgarity. I'm taking my whole family for this. The director's vision of coexistence with animals is beautiful. In urban India we forget that animals deserve respect. If this movie changes even one person's attitude toward street dogs, it's worth it. Jai Shri Ram
