I want to learn AutoCad from beginning. Please somebody tell me from where should I start? Can I start learning Lynda.com tutorial AutoCad Essential Training? Please suggest because I have no idea from where to start?

Also suggest me best video tutorials for AutoCad and 3dsMax.

This topic just cam e up recently in another thread.  My suggestions were two websites called CADTUTOR and MYCADSITE.  Tutorials can also be found at the AUTODESK website.  You might also want to pick up a good book about AutoCAD.  Another option would be to take an introductory course about AutoCAD from a reputable AutoDesk reseller.  These tend to be 4 or 5 days long.

Would you like to suggest video tutorial? It is better than book

You can find videos for many subjects on YouTube.

CADTUTOR has videos but I think they are having a problem with their website today.

YouTube is banned in Pakistan Ouch
What do you say about lynda.com? If I start from AutoCad Essential Training 2008, would it be OK?

Also suggest me, should I start from AutoCad 2008 or AutoCad 2014?

Start with AutoCAD 2014.  There is no rational reason to be starting with a version that is already six years old.
