 "When reel meets real: Vikrant Massey & Medha Shankr twin with Manoj Sharma & Shraddha in viral pic from 12th Fail set")
Vikrant Massey and Medha Shankr starrer 12th Fail directed by Vidhu Vinod Chopra has turned out to be one of the most profitable films of 2023. Despite premiering on OTT, the biographical drama continued its theatrical run and recently completed 100 days in cinemas.
Now a pic from the set of 12th Fail is going viral on the internet where the real-life couple Manoj Sharma and Shraddha are twinning with reel life jodi Vikrant Massey and Medha Shankr. The makers of the movie shared this BTS pic and we must say, this amazing pic will bring a huge smile to your face.
Vikrant Massey, who bagged the Filmfare Award for Best Actor (critics) for his portrayal in 12th Fail spoke about preparation for his character and told Firstpost, “Very challenging, although I don’t say things like these too much; this one particular character was very demanding. For example, I had to learn the language and the dialect which everyone has to do but I had to go the extra mile because Vinod Chopra didn’t want any makeup, he wanted me to naturally darken my skin as much as possible. To achieve that, I would apply mustard oil and sit on my terrace and sun bathe, and wait for my skin to peel off just like onion peel. What was also required was to understand the dialect and the student culture. I wasn’t aware of this kind of student culture where people are really aspiring for government jobs or wanting to contribute from their end to the society. It’s a difficult sphere to be in and very challenging. If you see the trailer, only 30-40% students get select from the Hindi medium and that’s the truth. These are the people that come from very very challenged sections of the society. To have the ability to restart when you fail, it’s a major challenge. I did spend a lot of time with students and I got to know their perspective and why they are doing this. It opens up your world.”
