'Kyonki Main Jhoot Nahin Bolta'

By N K Deoshi
Film critic, ApunKaChoice.Com

Once again Bollywood’s famous jodi of David Dhawan and Govinda comes up with a slapstick fare in “KKMJNB”. The film has a high dose of spine tickling humor that is typical of many of Dhawan’s films.

As expected the comedy in the film is seldom situational and more random (at some places it is even blunt).

There

are hilarious moments in the film that make watching it worth ones money like the one in which paupered Raj’s self-righteous rich wife Sonal (Sushmita) refuses to take even a penny from her millionaire father and drains Raj’s plans to become rich in a single swoop. Poor Raj is left scratching his empty hands.

Some good comic moments come from Anupam Kher and Satish Kaushik too. Had it not been for Govinda’s sleek timing and fluent dialogue delivery alongside the commendable cameos by Anupam Kher (who plays Sush’s father Tejpal) and Satish Kaushik (as Govinda’s roly-poly buddy Mohan Pyare) the film might have turned out to be a brooding fare.

Chi Chi plays the slaphappy hero to the hilt and convincingly slips under the skin of a compulsive liar who tells lies overtly without even a wink. And with equal quicksilver delicacy he transforms into a compulsive truth speaker in the latter part of the film. Whatever he does he excels.

Sushmita Sen shows remarkable improvement in histrionics and stands upto Chi Chi’s comic timing in equal stead. She looks gorgeous in the first half of the film but looks vapid in the second half (as Raj’s wife) clad in tasteless Punjabi suits and salwars.

Buxom lass Rambha chips in for some oomph quotient in the story. She plays the other woman in Raj’s life.

Anand Raj Anand’s pelvic-savvy music score goes well with the film’s hilarious theme.

Although “KKMJNB”is an oddity in the changing face of Indian cinema (with the high quality films like “Lagaan” and “Dil Chahta Hai” redefining the standards) the film does hold you to the seats through its two-plus hours of duration.
