He falls in love with Sonam, daughter of a wealthy lawyer Tejpal. He devises a scheme to marry into this wealthy family, and he succeeds. Years later, he has a son and Sonam finds out that his husband is now having a dishonest attitude to earn money.[3] So, she threatens him of divorce because she married him for his honesty. Now, his son decides to save his parents happily married life and wishes that his dad would stop lying. The son's wish comes true, and all utterances from Raj's mouth are truthful.
