Om Shanti Om is one of Shah Rukh Khan's most enjoyable movies with a nice recall value. Marking the second directorial of Farah Khan, this 2007 Bollywood entertainer marked the acting debut of Deepika Padukone. For those who have not watched the movie, Om Shanti Om is a candyfloss reincarnation drama set against the backdrop of Bollywood. Both Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone have a double role in the movie, thanks to the reincarnation trope. But there's a twist. Catherine Zeta-Jones Reveals Shah Rukh Khan's Om Shanti Om and Irrfan Khan's The Lunchbox Are Her Fave Films (Watch Video).

Shah Rukh Khan plays Om Prakash Makhija, a junior artiste in the '70s who dies and gets reincarnated as Om Kapoor, a nepo-kid turned superstar. Deepika Padukone plays Shanti, a reigning actress in Hindi cinema in the 70s who dies in a studio fire. She doesn't get reincarnated, though. Instead, she remains a ghost, while Deepika's other role is that of Sandhya, Shanti's doppelganger in the 2000s, who is an Om fangirl. Since there are two Om's in the movie and only one 'Shanti' technically, the title gets its context here rather than being a tribute to the popular song from Rishi Kapoor-starrer Karz.

While this would have been obvious if you had watched Om Shanti Om, a netizen just realised the true 'meaning' of the title and took to X to share their 'observation'. Om Shanti Om: From R Madhavan to Farhan Akhtar, Shah Rukh Khan-Deepika Padukone’s Film Had Unseen Celeb Cameos and This Viral Deleted Scene Is Proof!

This led to some interesting reactions, with some stating the obviousness of that observation while others came with their own hilarious takes.
