L'S'D

1 thing 4 sure, when u cum out of theatre wtchng LSD dat this is smthng that u have never cn b4. Deebankar Banerji aftr Khosla Ka Ghosla and Oye lucky....came up wid LSD & i was al excitd abt it. thnkfuly he never dispoints....

LSD..aka love sex dhoka is seris of 3 stories ...starts wid love followed by inevitable sex & ultimately end up in dhoka....simple....yes & no

d stories mite b as old as getway of ndia bt its the maner DB tells his stories sets LSD 1 of its kind.

story 1 is abt a film makng institute student, his assgnment and his first luv & ofcorse the Adi Sir (Aditya Chopra - the god of modern day romance) d stry takes place thrugh student's handheld cam which he uses 4 his film making....
a juvenile love den a marrige etc etc....havnt we seen it b4? NO not dis one...specialy the climax of this story, it's so disturbing...
...story 2 is thrugh a supr market CCTV camera...a simple supr market worker, CCTV opertr & shop scandl....
....story 3 is thrugh a hidden camera....a sting operation, a TV reporter, an aspirant item girl and a pop star (his claim to fame song goes like 'tu nangi acchi lagti hain, tu bandi acchhi lagti hain')

LSD is an experiment and also an experience....ppl mite feel nausiating wid its constnt jerky camra movements...or sometime really poor lighting, som mite say whts so big deal in it"? v hav seen such luv and betrayals b4 and der r few who wll b in cmplte awe of dis movie....

a big salute (a GRAND salute) to DB 4 his effrts...who just giv a damn to convential mode of film making & stry telling....all he got are 3 stories 2 tell...attched wid a small cmmn thread and the style in whch he wan2 convey it...
a special mention of Ektaa Kapoor who apparently is a producer of this movie...the most conservative producer is behind the most unconvential cinema India has ever produced. Ekta i forgive ur 100 tulsi and parvati bhabhsi for givng us LSD..

I simply cant rate or review ths movie bcoz i still got its hangover

And the award goes to...

7 March was an award night...first on Sony TV with our very own filmfare and then with Oscars.

Now being the oldest in the business; Filmfare still has some respect in Bollywood and I particularly like it for Saif and SRK. Yes, they often kick some serious ass while hosting it and this year was no exception.

This post is not here to dissect each and every award offered at Filmfare this year, what particularly striking is an Award for Best Story\Screenplay and Dialogue...all three went to 3 Idiots.

I hardly ....hardly miss any movies to watch but somehow 3 idiots just did not happen to me. I watched it after 2 months, yeah it is a GOOD and well made movie. Quite entertaining and full on timepass but that's it. What surprised me is the all hoopla around the movie.

Some of my friends said that it's the best movie ever made in India....sorry but that's just too much.

First and foremost...it's 5 Point Someone and I think they did not give the due credit for the author. And top of that Raju Hirani accepted the best story award for it...cmmon Raju, have some respect!!!!

The centre idea, premises and all twists and turns are straight out of the book. And frankly the part added for the movie is either too lame or too melodramatic. The otherwise believable characters from the book becomes HEROS in movie, no complaint about it...but when throughout the movie; you cry for Innovation and originality, have some in your movie too....

3 idiots is too pretentious....most of the fun part runs on shoulder of 5 point someone...when it isn't it's either going on Munnabhai way or Taare Zameen Par way....when it's neither ...it's simply boring.

ViruS character is awesome but it's largely an enhancement of Raju Hirani's very own J(dot) Asthana from Munnabhai MBBS. Ryan from the book becomes Rancho here and loses it's charm. Aamir looks younger but talks a lot (on and off the screen), Madhavan and Sharman remains sidey for most of the movie part. Book's Karthik character is extended here as Chatur and it brings some genuine laughs.

The only original scene can be described with Mona Singh's delivery with vacuum cleaner...and yeah I liked it...(Finally something innovative) otherwise it's collection of really good forwards than you get on e-mail every now and then.

Inspiration isn't a bad thing ;-) and Again the movie is really good. But certainly all is not well.
