Vikrant Massey in 12th Fail
Vidhu Vinod Chopra's 12th Fail is gaining momentum after makers dropped the much-awaited trailer on October 3. Now, the makers have dropped the first bebehind-the-scenes footage from the Behind the Scenes (BTS) series of the film.
Known for his authentic storytelling, Vidhu Vinod Chopra shot a major chunk of 12th Fail in the real-life locations of Mukherjee Nagar, Delhi.
As seen in the BTS video, more than 5,000 people gathered to be part of the shoot.
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 competitive exam, the UPSC.
