Kyo Kii... Main Jhuth Nahin Bolta

Kyo Kii... Main Jhuth Nahin Bolta rarely abbreviated as KMJNB is a 2001 Indian Hindi-language fantasy comedy film directed by David Dhawan, starring Govinda, Sushmita Sen, Rambha, Anupam Kher, Satish Kaushik, Mohnish Bahl and Ashish Vidyarthi. It is inspired by the American film Liar Liar (1997). This was later remade into Telugu film as Mayagadu.

Plot
Raj Malhotra is a lawyer, hailing from a small town. He moves to Mumbai to live with his friend Mohan, also a lawyer. Mohan introduces Raj to his life and work. One day, the two attend a criminal case hearing, in which the defence attorney, Tejpal, expertly argues for his client. Tejpal is one of the richest and most successful lawyers in the city. Raj devises a plan to marry into Tejpal's family and become wealthy.

Raj attracts Tejpal's second daughter, Sonam, by making her believe that he is a principled and honest lawyer, who idolises her father. He lies his way into impressing Tejpal himself, who agrees to marry his daughter to Raj. The day after their marriage, Raj is shocked when Sonam insists on moving out of her father's house. She also refuses to take any of her father's money, forcing Raj to move back with Mohan, who wholeheartedly takes them in.

An underworld don called Kalra, starts seeking a criminal lawyer to defend his brother in a murder trial. Most lawyers are unwilling to take the case, fearing repercussion from Kalra, but Raj grabs the opportunity. He wins the case and Kalra's brother is released. Raj becomes Kalra's permanent attorney, gaining wealth and fame as a result. He and Sonam move into a large house and have a son together.

Some years later, Kalra's brother is again accused of murder. Sonam wants Raj to fight on behalf of the victim's widow. Raj accepts, but Sonam overhears him promising Kalra to lose the case willingly. Realising that Raj has turned dishonest to make money, Sonam leaves the house and asks for a divorce.

Raj's son wants his parents back together and makes a wish - he wants his father to stop lying completely. The wish works like a miracle, as the next day, Raj is unable to utter a single falsehood. He ends up telling Sonam and Tejpal that he married for money, and cross-examines his own prepared witnesses during Kalra's brother's trial.

Worried for his life, Raj visits his son and learns of the wish. He asks him to take it back or risk his father being killed by Kalra for losing the case. His son does as told. The miracle is reversed, but Raj has now had a change of heart. He promises his son to continue speaking the truth, and ends up fighting the case against Kalra's brother. He wins, bringing justice to the murdered man's widow. Kalra and his brother are imprisoned, and Sonam returns to Raj's life for keeping his word.
