Alia Bhatt Joins A-Listers in Applauding 12th Fail; Film Receives Rave Reviews Across Bollywood

Renowned actress Alia Bhatt recently shared her admiration for the film “12th Fail” on Instagram, following in the footsteps of stars like Katrina Kaif and Hrithik Roshan. In a Tuesday Instagram Stories post, Bhatt praised the movie’s beauty and the stellar performances, particularly highlighting Vikrant Massey’s spectacular acting. Other Bollywood heavyweights, including Vijay Deverakonda, Hrithik Roshan, Katrina Kaif, and Kangana Ranaut, have also lauded the film on social media, with Hrithik Roshan calling it a “master class in filmmaking.”

Directed by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, “12th Fail” is a gripping drama centered on UPSC candidates, drawing inspiration from real events and portraying the challenges faced by millions of students appearing for the UPSC entrance exam. Since its theatrical release on October 27, the film has earned a global gross of ₹66 crore, fueled by positive word-of-mouth and favorable reviews. The success of “12th Fail” stands in stark contrast to Kangana Ranaut’s “Tejas,” which struggled at the box office.
