Not every film needs a blockbuster opening to matter. Ohh My Dog, the Pankaj Tripathi-starrer from the makers of OMG 2, wrapped its opening weekend at Rs. 3 crore nett — a modest number, but one that comes with genuinely positive word-of-mouth behind it.
Directed by Amit Rai, the heartwarming family drama added Rs. 1.10–1.20 crore on Sunday alone, a small but steady spike over its Saturday numbers. For a niche, limited-release film built around two dogs and their separated human companions, that kind of consistent weekend growth is a solid sign heading into weekdays.

A Small-Scale Film Punching Above Expectations
Trade watchers are right to frame this cautiously — Ohh My Dog is a small film with a limited release and a niche subject, so its numbers will never be compared to a typical mass entertainer. But given its scale, cast size, and screen count, the fact that it’s holding steady and even gaining slightly on Day 3 is genuinely encouraging.
The positive critical reception is likely helping here. Reviews have praised the film’s emotional core and its unusual dual-track storytelling — two puppies, Momo and Oscar, separated at birth and raised in entirely different worlds, whose paths intertwine again through an unexpected chain of events involving a missing dog and a missing man.
What’s Working In Its Favor
Pankaj Tripathi, known for his versatility across genres — from Mirzapur to Gangs of Wasseypur — headlines a cast that also includes Maahi Rai, Pavan Malhotra, and Jitendra Joshi, alongside an impressive 250 dogs featured across the film. That scale of animal casting alone makes Ohh My Dog a fairly unique theatrical proposition this year.
The Road Ahead
The film faces a tough weekend two ahead, with Batwara 1947 and Awarapan 2 both releasing and likely eating into its already limited screen count. Trade estimates suggest Ohh My Dog should aim to close its total run somewhere between Rs. 5–10 crore nett in India — a respectable outcome for a film of this scale and subject matter, provided it holds well on weekdays before losing ground to new releases.
