Vikrant Massey's film '12th Fail' has received widespread acclaim for its inspiring storyline. The movie narrates Manoj Kumar Sharma's journey from poverty to the Indian Police Service, with crucial support from his wife, IRS officer Shraddha Joshi. Director Vidhu Vinod Chopra, after being turned down by five directors, took on the project himself. Despite initial skepticism, the film has performed well at the box office, surpassing expectations. Chopra's decision to cast Massey also faced industry doubts, which were ultimately proven wrong.
