12th Fail

Superlative acting by each person in the movie, even those playing much smaller roles. The fact that it is based on a true story makes you really understand and appreciate what the person went through and how he achieved it. Dadi is awesome 😎

Vikrant Massey plays the character with such ease. Do read how he prepared for the movie. It reminds me of Aamir Khan. Medha Shankar, Anshumaan Pushkar, Anant Joshi have portrayed their roles beautifully.

The storyline flows effortlessly from the beginning and the narration by Anant is superb. What you also live through is the hard work that people put in while preparing for the UPSC exams, especially those coming from far flung villages of the country.

A movie that you would definitely want the kids in the family to see. Congratulations to the entire cast and crew. You have delivered a masterpiece !

12th Fail is a bold movie and movies like this must be made more frequently.

Alas, nowadays making such movies isn't possible easily because masses are more inclined to watch poorly made but highly promoted movies like Kashmir Files or Kerala story.

This will surely inspire many and will give morale boost to many aspirants and will give it's viewer to think after watch.

Direction is superb and acting of Vikrant Messy is top notch.

The cinematic expression in question showcases a remarkable portrayal of characters, bringing them to life in a way that blurs the lines between fiction and reality. The depth and authenticity of the performances make it seem as though the characters are not played by actors, but rather by genuine individuals. Given the outstanding work by Vikrant Massey, it would be a profound oversight if he were not recognized with a National Award for his exceptional contribution to this piece of art.

12th Fail One of the best films of the year.

Vidhu sir has created magic on screen as usual.

I love underdogs and this movie is one of them.

Vikrant Bhai You have out done yourself.

Medha Shankar Outstanding Lastly Anurag Pathak Sir apne jo likha hai is story ko I think this is the best book I've ever read.

So, Everyone please go and watch this ASAP.

First of all it is important to thank Vidhu Vinod Chopra for making this film. The story has been told in such a heartwarming way that the audience is totally involved in this inspiring story of grit, determination and victory against all odds. The performances are award worthy. Vikram Massey is outstanding in the lead role and is well supported by the rest of the cast. The direction, screenplay and editing are top notch. Unfortunately in India the over the top and illogical films become blockbusters and the really outstanding films don't do well commercially. I hope the Indian audience views such films as it will encourage film makers to do top quality work of international standards. This film falls in category that the Hindi film industry should feel proud of.
