Who tells lying is bad? Watch Jhootha Hi Sahi and you will come to know that lying will get you in all places. In the twenty first century when everyone is urgently seeking their soul mate, lying is perhaps the best way to find that perfect someone for you.

After the extraordinary success of Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na, Abbas Tyrewala is back with his next romantic comedy about a straightforward guy who lies his way to love.  John Abraham plays the role of Siddharth aka (Sid) who runs a bookshop in London with his Pakistani friend Omar (played by Raghu Ram). In true Bollywood style the bookshop is called ‘Kagaz Ke Phool'.  Sid is already in a committed relationship with Krutika (Manasi Scott), who controls all aspects of his life.

By chance, Sid's phone number gets listed on a suicide helpline flier and he starts getting calls from unknown people attempting suicide.  Being the good guy that our hero is, he starts counseling these lost souls. One night Mishka (Pakhi) calls up the suicide helpline and Sid stops her from committing the act.  The two become good friends and create having regular phone conversations every night.

One day Mishka comes to Sid's bookshop, Sid recognizes her without delay but Mishka cannot. The duo start dating, John puts up a nice double act in this film. During day he dates Mishka as the stammering bespectacled geek while in the night he has phone conversations with her as a confident young man.  The film has the light and fresh feel of the Tom Hanks, Meg Ryan starrer ‘You've Got Mail'. Will Mishka forgive Sid when she finds out about his lies?  You will have to find that out for yourself.

The film has strong ensemble cast that has put up some really good performances. John Abraham looks convincing in his guy-next-door appearance.  Raghu Ram puts up a praiseworthy act with his superb comic timing.  The scenic beauty of London and its locales are used widely to add to the fresh appeal of the movie.

AR Rahman's music does a bang-up job and stays in your mind long after you leave the film hall.  However the film gets tad bit boring in the end thanks to its extended and over-the top climax.

In general Jhootha Hi Sahi is the ideal weekend rom-com to watch with your family and friends.
