Although the music is praiseworthy (music: Anand Raaj Anand), the songs appear in quick succession, without any valid situations. Moreover, Manjrekar has used most songs as gap fillers. The story hardly moves in the second half and when it does, there are no memorable sequences to register an impact. But the drama does not rise beyond the mundane. Ganga's interaction with his actual family could've been more dramatic, with ample doses of emotions thrown in, which are actually Manjrekar's forte. Unfortunately, that does not happen, for the writer resorts to clich?situations, gags and punches to move the story ahead. When the story shifts from the village to the city, the viewer expects the film to undergo a dramatic change. If Manjrekar is successful in extracting commendable performances from some artistes and making you laugh at frivolous situations, he falters in one major department ? the screenplay, that is devoid of excitement. It also proves director Mahesh Manjrekar's versatility in handling light subjects, unlike his past films ? VAASTAV, NIDAAN and ASTITVA ? which were intense subjects. The film actually showcases the enormous talent Govinda possesses. JIS DESH MEIN GANGA REHTA HAI is, to an extent, inspired by Dada Kondke's Marathi hit EKTA JEEV SADASHIV. Ganga is also introduced to his elder brother (Milind Gunaji), a dishonest man, his snobbish bhabhi (Supriya Karnik) and his spoilt younger brother (Ankush Chaudhary). Once in the city, he meets Tina (Rinke Khanna), a modern city girl, who is unable to resist Ganga's rustic charm and lends him her heart. Thus begins an uprooted Ganga's travails from the village to the city, as he discovers a new world, a new family, a new environment and new values unfolding in front of him. The story takes a dramatic turn when Ganga's real parents want him back. Ganga's parents are, in fact, industrialists (Shakti Kapoor and Himani Shivpuri) who live in the city.

Ganga's blissful life comes crashing down when it is revealed that he is living with his foster parents. Saawni (Sonali Bendre), a pretty village belle, sees in Ganga the man of her dreams. He lives happily with his shepherd father (Shivaji Satam) and doting mother (Reema Lagoo). Ganga (Govinda) is pure, moralistic and untouched by the realities of life beyond his village. Quest Films' JIS DESH MEIN GANGA REHTA HAI, directed by Mahesh Manjrekar, is the journey of a simpleton who revels in the security and warmth of his roots, only to discover that the roots are not really his.
