You mentioned “12th Fail Full Details”—it looks like you’re referring to the Hindi film 12th Fail. That’s a 2023 biographical drama that follows the true story of Manoj Kumar Sharma as he overcomes failure and poverty to become an Indian Police Service (IPS) officer. Here’s a comprehensive breakdown:
Title: 12th Fail (2023), directed, produced, and co-written by Vidhu Vinod Chopra (Wikipedia).
Based on: The 2019 non-fiction book 12th Fail by Anurag Pathak, detailing IPL officer Manoj Kumar Sharma’s journey (Wikipedia, movies.fandom.com).
Run Time: Approximately 146 minutes (Wikipedia, movies.fandom.com).
Language: Hindi.
Lead: Vikrant Massey portrays Manoj Kumar Sharma (Wikipedia, Filmfare, movies.fandom.com).
Supporting roles include Medha Shankar, Anant V Joshi, Anshumaan Pushkar, and Priyanshu Chatterjee (Wikipedia, movies.fandom.com, Filmfare).
Music by Shantanu Moitra; Cinematography by Rangarajan Ramabadran; edited by Jaskunwar Kohli and Vidhu Vinod Chopra (Wikipedia, movies.fandom.com).
Set in the crime-ridden Chambal region, Manoj is the son of an honest but unemployed clerk. His journey begins with:
Failing 12th Grade after refusing to cheat, unlike his peers—sparked by a newly transferred DSP, Dushyant Singh, who discourages dishonesty (Wikipedia, Daily Sabah, movies.fandom.com).
His father is suspended on the job, adding financial stress; his brother faces false accusations (Wikipedia, movies.fandom.com).
Despite hardship, Manoj studies honestly and passes 12th Grade. He enrolls in a B.A., fueled by his grandmother’s savings, but is robbed en route to Gwalior and learns exams are cancelled—derailing his DSP plans (Wikipedia, movies.fandom.com).
He meets empathetic strangers: a hotel owner feeds him, and peer Pritam Pandey introduces him to the UPSC in Delhi (Wikipedia, Daily Sabah, movies.fandom.com).
In Delhi, aspirant Gauri Bhaiya takes him under his wing, offering mentoring and support from his tea stall (Wikipedia, Daily Sabah, movies.fandom.com).
Manoj fails prelims initially, then succeeds on subsequent attempts. He develops a relationship with fellow aspirant Shraddha Joshi, but they face setbacks due to misunderstandings and distractions (Wikipedia, movies.fandom.com, Filmfare).
With renewed focus and emotional support, Manoj cracks mains and finally clears the UPSC (often on his last attempt) and interviews with integrity—quoting B. R. Ambedkar’s “Educate, Agitate, Organise” (Filmfare, movies.fandom.com).
In the end, Manoj becomes an IPS officer, thanks his mentor DSP Singh, and marries Shraddha (Wikipedia, movies.fandom.com).
Released: Theatrically on 27 October 2023, later dubbed in Tamil and Telugu (Wikipedia).
OTT Release: Available on Disney+ Hotstar from 29 December 2023 (Wikipedia).
Critical Response: Widely acclaimed as a modest yet powerful portrayal of perseverance and honesty (Daily Sabah, India Currents, Filmfare).
Box Office: Emerged as a sleeper hit, grossing well above its budget (Wikipedia, movies.fandom.com).
Awards:
Message & Themes: Strong emphasis on honesty over shortcuts. The film’s mantra, “Restart,” symbolizes resilience (“failure is not the end”) (Medium, India Currents, Medium, Luis Dias).
Integrity Matters: Manoj fails when being honest, but that forms his moral foundation and transforms his life. (India Currents, Daily Sabah)
Never Give Up: Despite repeated setbacks, he keeps trying—his persistence pays off (Medium, Luis Dias).
Importance of Mentorship: Figures like DSP Singh and Gauri Bhaiya provide guidance, hope, and direction (India Currents, Daily Sabah).
Pivoting Goals: When one path closes, another opens—Manoj shifts from DSP ambition to IAS/IPS aspiration (India Currents, Medium).
Support & Love: Emotional support from Shraddha and family is critical in his journey (90rollsroyces, Medium).
Hope in Despair: Even in extreme poverty and isolation, small gestures of kindness make a massive difference (Pictured life, Daily Sabah).
The film is inspired by true events—but isn’t a literal documentary; details are dramatized (Luis Dias).
In real life, Manoj Kumar Sharma failed his 12th exams but pursued BA in Hindi & History (Wikipedia).
After multiple attempts, he cleared the UPSC Civil Services on his 4th attempt, securing Rank 121 (Wikipedia).
He joined the IPS in the 2005 batch, serving in the Maharashtra cadre, rising to Inspector General of Police and later in CISF (Wikipedia).
