Movie Review : LSD (Love Sex aur Dhokha) - Hindi

LSD is an experimental movie with three different sub plots relating to each other.

LSD is shot in a manner, most of the MMS videos are shot using Mobile, unprofessional videographer shooting a video and the way the CCTV camera footages are viewed.
Film shot as a recording using MMS Videos, unprofessional videographer shooting a video and CCTV camera footages. Story depicts reality so very few audiences may be interested.

It is definitely not for the people who are expecting some entertainment out of the movie. Most audience would feel this movie to a boring and a movie which wastes time and definitely not a value for money.

This is not a cup of tea for all.
