Ohh My Dog has finally hit theatres, bringing an emotional blend of family drama, mystery and adventure centred on the special bond between humans and their pets.
Released on August 7, 2026, the Amit Rai directorial has already sparked positive conversations on social media, with early viewers praising its heartfelt storytelling, performances and meaningful message.
Netizens Reaction
Several called it a 'touching' watch for both children and adults, while pet lovers said the film beautifully captures the bond between humans and their dogs.
Many viewers also applauded Pankaj Tripathi's performance and Maahi Rai's portrayal, while Bruno, who plays Oscar, emerged as one of the biggest highlights.
Audiences praised the use of real dogs instead of CGI and appreciated how the two parallel storylines come together through themes of loyalty, compassion and courage.
Some viewers, however, felt the film's 2-hour-30-minute runtime was slightly long and that a few scenes could have been trimmed for a tighter narrative.
A section of the audience also felt the parallel subplots slowed the pace in parts. Despite this, most agreed that its emotional moments, sincere performances and strong message make Ohh My Dog a worthwhile watch, especially for families, children and pet lovers.
