Hi Reader,

In the past year, numerous remarkable films captivated audiences on both the big and small screens. Towards the end of the year, an Indian film garnered exceptional praise from both critics and viewers alike. That film is "12th Fail," featuring Vikrant Massey. Let us delve into the movie directed by Vidhu Vinod Chopra and the valuable lessons it imparts.

You can start by watching this trailer for the movie

​

​

Inspired by a true story, this cinematic jewel recounts the extraordinary journey of Manoj Kumar Sharma, an IPS officer who, despite facing the setback of failing his 12th board exams, overcame all obstacles to achieve his dreams. Adapted from Anurag Pathak's bestselling novel, "12th Fail" doesn't just tell one individual's story but becomes a celebration of the tenacity exhibited by millions of students who refuse to give up.

What can you and I learn from the movie?

The power of restart:

We all stumble in life. You must have faced some failure at some point. Did you just give up on that thing or start from scratch to work on it again? Philanthropist entrepreneur Dato Sri Vijay Eswaran often says, 'Get up again! Get up again!' That is the power of restart. Manoj Sharma encourages us to rewrite our narratives, reclaim our aspirations, and move forward with determination despite past failures.

​

It is never too late to start anew. Have you heard someone say, 'It is too late now, just give up!' Until you succeed, you can always start fresh. You can choose to forget past failures, learn from mistakes, and begin walking towards your dream.

Resisting negativity:

Believe it or not, we live in a world where negativity surrounds us. The film shows how some people around Manoj kept saying, 'Tumse naa hoga' (You cannot do it). Despite everyone saying that he ignored those statements, isolated his mind from negativity, and started fresh. The film challenges us to drown out negativity, extracting the positive from the statement ‘Tumse na hoga’. It reverses and inspires us to forge ahead with unwavering confidence.

Significance of the support system:

The movie emphasizes the fact that behind every success story lies a robust network of unwavering support. Our friends and family, who believe in us and never give up on us, are the true pillars of our success. You must have some people in your life who support you irrespective of your slowdowns or push-backs. Just focus on them, and they will help you create your success story.

​

This movie teaches about resilience uniquely. Cinematic brilliance with a bunch of learnings makes it well worth our time to watch and support this movie. So what are you waiting for? Go enjoy the movie and tell me what your favorite part was.
