Taking to his X (previously known as Twitter) account on Sunday, January 14, Hrithik shared his thoughts about the Vikrant Massey-starrer as he wrote, "Finally saw 12th Fail. It’s quite a masterclass in film making. Above everything else I was inspired by the use of sound and sound effects play in enhancing the moments. Brilliant performances. Mr. Chopra , what a movie ! Thank you for the brilliance. I am deeply inspired by this one."

Meanwhile, on the work front, Hrithik is himself awaiting the release of his aerial actioner Fighter on January 25. The Siddharth Anand directorial also stars Deepika Padukone, Anil Kapoor, and Karan Singh Grover among others. The film has been listed as the most anticipated Indian movie of 2024 by IMDb.

Coming back to 12th Fail, the film is based on a true story of the IPS officer Manoj Kumar Sharma and 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. 

Apart from Vikrant Massey, 12th Fail also stars Medha Shankr, Anant V Joshi, Anshumaan Pushkar, and Priyanshu Chatterjee in prominent roles. The Vidhu Vinod Chopra directorial is still running in theatres across the nation, even after more than two months since its theatrical release and a couple of weeks after its streaming release on Disney+ Hotstar last month.READ | Hansal Mehta calls this 2023 Bollywood movie 'film of the year', it's not 12th Fail, Jawan, Animal, Pathaan, RRKPK
