Love Sex Aur Dhokha Movie Review

Dibakar Banerjee director of classics like Khosla Ka Ghosla and Oye Lucky Lucky Oye returns with a film quite boldly titled Love Sex Aur Dhokha! The film has an almost unknown star-cast – Anshuman Jha, Shruti, Neha Chauhan, Arya Devdutta, Raj Kumar Yadav, Amit and Herry Tangri.

Love Sex Aur Dhokha has 3 stories. Rahul, a student in a film institute, takes up his diploma film with a small cast and during the process ends up falling in love with the film’s heroine Shruti. They runaway and get married.

The second story is about Adarsh, young and unemployed chap, who doesn’t mind stooping low to make some quick bucks. He lures a naive girl Rashmi (Chauhan) at a shopping center and plans to sell the footage of the them being intimate.

The final story is a sting operation planned by a journalist Prabhat (Sail) on a pop star Loki Local (Tangri) who takes unduly advantage of models approaching him for a part in music videos.

What works for Love Sex Aur Dhokha

1) … is the explicit realism with which the director portrays the India of today. Every story is easy to connect, something that you read time and again in newspapers. Dibakar Banerjee has taken a relevant issue and transformed it into a cinematic masterpiece, which is a must-watch, especially for the younger generation.

2) All stories have a common link. All of them involve a hint of everything that the title stands for – love, sex and dhokha.

3) The second story and the third are the best of the three tales and although the pace is slightly on the slower side, it helps in digesting some of the sequences. With LSD, Bollywood certainly has grown up and successfully broken the so-called formula.

4) LSD is basically a film shot on a handheld video camera and what sets it apart from films like Paranormal Activities is the multiple plots. The runtime, under 2 hours, also works in favour of the film.

What doesn’t work for Love Sex Aur Dhokha

1) The pace is sometimes slow, especially the first track when the director pays his tribute to the Yashraj brand of cinema.

2) The realism may be too hard to digest for a few. Also, those that decide to watch the film for titillation, going by the title, will walk out disappointed.

Overall, Love Sex Aur Dhokha, while not for everyone, is a must watch if your a fan of hard-hitting bold films with real stories. At the box office, the film caters to the youngsters and should grow on word of mouth. Due to the low budget, the investment should be easily recovered in Week 1.

Rating: ★★★★☆

  • Dear Nauman,

    with all the due respect dude … ever since you have started your own site…you have become such an irritating idiot … All of you know me… i never say anything bad about anyone… but nauman bro… you have really gone bizarre. I’ve been trying to hold myself back since long but cant do it any more.

    I don’t know why Indicine is not updating on regular basis…but I know one this for sure and I want you and the others to know it as well…

    The only reason i dont visit Bollyplus.com is that Nauman is a part of it. I dont like people who on achieving something, become a snob. So brother please change your attitude…otherwise abhi tau yeh baat sirf mein ney note ki hey…there will soon be a time, when a lot of people will start avoiding you.

    ITS a brotherly advice … only if you can understand !!!

  • Akhlaq,
    Since I announced my site on indicine the users of indicine divided into two parts.
    1. Who praised me, supported me and gave me good suggestions
    2. Who felt jealousy and thought how a simple guy like us can create a big site as a competitor of indicine.
    So just let me know to whom you belongs?

    Since i started i committed with indicine that we will work together. I will give a link of indicine in my site and they will do same thing on their site.
    I don’t know what is wrong with indicine now a days and why they been jammed. But I am hopefull they will be back.
    Tell me one thing when we can post any news and any link of that news then why not me? why not i can post any link of my site?

    A last thing I want to say to you which is
    After 20 differnt reviews out
    After 50 short reviews in comment section out
    After Friday on Saturday
    If I will say to my 12 years old sister that read all reviews and read all comments and feed back and now write a review of that movie. I think she will write in a same way which you have in your reviews.
    If you really have gets so please write a review on Thursday and before any other site or any other critic.

  • Ohhh Coool Indicine , So you again start screening on the name of my site.
    what should i think about it?
    It means you are reallu in secure with my site. that we can post any other sites name except my site.
    I Really liked it.

  • nauman :: ye i saw the new articles which is pathetic >>>>>
    i dont know y indicine has posted pics of srk gay

    is that indicine is really fan of srk gay or he lost all the other fans where they are in bollyplus….now..

  • @indicine team how r u ppl!! hope everything ok or will be sorted out soon.
    aftr a break m bck in here…m not terrified by seeing negativity all around…i believe user comments may be reduced a bit bt number of people visiting indicine never reduced..nd comments will b start to pouring all over again just let a big movie to release.

    just u ppl have to be a bit more active now…don’t be frustrate by negative comments…nd try to bring some brand new article with soo mch sparkle …definitely it gona work…hey u can bring some story about ipl too as all bollywood r now flocking in there..we will be more den happy to discuss about dem.

    my request is can u make it easier like before to post comments .

  • @nauman…u make a huge impact with ur site..we never thought its gna be huge like dis that too within 2/3 months… bolly pls site did take soo many user away from indicine….they may feel kinda betrayed for dis…yea obviously u don’t hav any fault, all credit goes to u for a overall gud site…bt in d other side wht happened in dis site!! just put ur self in there place nd c how does it feel like…u,hina nd amish were a big part of indicine..u ppl used to comment here, fighting with each other/or with indicine, appreciating there gud articles….so many things.. above all groomed in here too..indicine was giving some kinda paternalistic support… remember d famous scene from 3i when amir top da merit list bt his best buddies were nt feeling happy..DA SITUATION IS SOMETHING LIKE DAT NOW….um feeling sad too seeing dis debacle in here …i really lov dis side…cant just flew away or stop visiting dem like many others…

    i also visit ur site too… soo many comments , gud articles, early reviews…

  • i dont think ths movie is deserving of 4 stars .. it is a meaningless film ..i donno why it was made .. stories that u all know ..only some amateurish acting to get along .. it is not wortha single dekko..please avoid at all cost
