12th Fail has been a sensation in the world of Indian cinema, with audiences across the nation falling in love with its heart-touching storyline and entertaining performances, eventually accumulating 24.16 Cr at the box office, which is clearly a big score for a mid-size film. The film's success at the box office is a testament to its popularity, with both critics and viewers praising it for the message it conveys.
Recently, a school in Mumbai decided to include watching the film mandatory as a part of their Diwali break homework. Taking to social media, makers shared, “A heartfelt thank you to Ryan International School Kandivali, Mumbai, for embracing the spirit of #RESTART with #12thFail! @ryan.group HAPPY DIWALI"
The move to include 12th Fail as part of the school's Diwali break homework has been met with enthusiasm by both students and parents.
12th Fail, based on a true story, draws from the struggles of the millions of students who attempt the UPSC entrance exam. But at the same time, it goes beyond that one exam and encourages people to not lose heart in the face of failure and to restart. The film, directed by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, is now released in cinemas in Hindi. All set to release in Tamil and Telugu tomorrow.
The filmmaker shot a major chunk of the film's portion in the real-life locations of Mukherjee Nagar, Delhi. The film tells the real-life story of millions of students, and to keep the context and theme of the film connected to the film's subject, the makers have gone out of their way. The film also draws inspiration from millions of true stories of students attempting the world's toughest civil service competitive exam, the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC).
Talking about the film, Vidhu Vinod Chopra said in a statement, "In today's times, I wanted to tell a story of hope, a story of never giving up. 12th Fail is all that and more. I laughed, cried, sang along, and had fun making this movie. I truly believe that this film will find a universal connect when it comes out in theatres."
