Just like Hrithik, several other actors also appreciated the fantastic movie that the director has made. Janhvi Kapoor took to her Instagram stories and posted a still from the film and wrote, ‘Blown away, a masterpiece for the ages’.

I think that's all the example we need.”
Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap said that it’s the best mainstream film he saw in 2023. Parts of his lengthy note appreciating the movie read, “Probably the best mainstream film I’ve seen in 2023 @vidhuvinodchoprafilms at the age of 71 has crafted a masterpiece out of a simple story of an adamant man wanting to be more than what life gives him. Kudos to the whole team who I don’t know and all the actors. Especially @vikrantmassey @medhashankr @anshumaan_pushkar @anantvjoshi and the cinematographer Ranga, the production designer and the music directors and writers. I have met Manoj and I’ve read the book but I never could have seen it how VVC saw it. It’s on HotStar and a must watch. I was unlucky to find time to see it in cinemas but saw it on my personal screen but do give this film a shot. Love you VVc for inspiring me. May you never really grow up and always be the troublesome brat that you are even at 71. Just big big hug and love to you. And I am ready to #restart.”
About 12th Fail
Released theatrically on October 27, 2023, the biographical drama film has been produced, written, and directed by Vidhu Vinod Chopra. In the movie, Vikrant Massey plays the titular role of a 12th failed Manoj Kumar Sharma who rose from extreme poverty and eventually became an Indian Police Service officer. Apparently, it’s based on Anurag Pathak’s book that delves deep into the real-life story of Manoj Kumar Sharma. Along with Massey, the movie also features Medha Shankr, Anant V Joshi, Anshumaan Pushkar, and Priyanshu Chatterjee. Even though the movie didn’t have an impressive start, it went on to become a sleeper hit and was appreciated by audiences and critics alike.
