Exclusive: Akshay Kumar and Rani Mukerji pair up for Oh My God 3; The film will go on floors in mid-2026

Pinkvilla has exclusively learned that Rani Mukherjee has joined the cast of Oh My God 3, marking one of the biggest casting coups in recent times and bringing together two iconic stars of the 90s, Rani Mukherjee and Akshay Kumar for a much-awaited project.

According to a source close to the development, “This is one of the biggest casting moves in recent years. Oh My God is one of Akshay Kumar’s most loved franchises, and it’s getting even bigger with Rani Mukherjee joining the film. Her presence will add immense gravitas and freshness to the story.”

The source further added that the film is currently in the pre-production stage and is expected to go on floors by mid-2026. The source said, “Director Amit Rai has created a story that is bigger, more relevant and tougher than the previous installments. Akshay was clear that OMG 3 had to step up in every aspect from story, emotions to performances and the addition of Rani makes the film even bigger.”

After the massive success of OMG and OMG 2, Akshay Kumar is all set to return once again with director Amit Rai for the third installment of the franchise. Known for thought-provoking stories mixed with strong entertainment, the Oh My God franchise has carved a special place for itself in Hindi cinema, and the makers are now aiming to raise the stakes even higher.

Akshay Kumar’s return to the OMG universe has already created a huge buzz, and now the excitement around it will increase manifold. The pairing of two powerhouse actors, along with Amit Rai’s socially resonant storytelling, makes Oh My God 3 one of the most anticipated films currently.

An official announcement from the manufacturers is expected soon.
