I sometimes wonder what are tv serials meant for because believe me if you were to watch any of the serious serials on the tv the purpose of watching tv would be defeated as insteading of relaxing you they increase your stress but if you really want to make your tv watch time refreshing you need to watch sab tv and even in that watching sajan re jhoot mat is a must as it is a refreshing light hearted comedy where you have to keep your mind aside and just laugh as the serial delivers on that account with wild antics without going slapstick but still mindless so and I would add that another big plus is that it has a gujrati theatre feel to it so go watch it
plot
the serial basically started with apurva(sumit raghavan) an orphan lies to his boss(tiku talsania) a righteous man who hates liar to get a job by telling him that he has a big loving ideal family which impresses dhirubhai so much so that he marries his niece aarti(mugdha) to him but problem arises when dhirubhai wants to meet his family so with the help of his actor friend raju(rajeev) he hires people to act his family but problem increase when the people he hired include an sell by date theatre actress(apara mehta) as his mom, a thief(sukesh anand) as a brother who is a lawyer, an item girl(melissa) as his sister in lawan asharam caretaker(manoj goel) as an elder brother who is a doctor, an rajasthani girl(shalini khanna) his second sister in law, and banjaran girl(ami trivedi as his sister) to act as his family and hilariously when apurva falls short of an actor to play his dad his friend raju doubles up as his dad ansd so this serial is all about confusion arising out of this dyfunctional characters and how various family member work well to hide their lie
