Mumbai, July 10: Streaming platform Prime Video on Wednesday announced the premiere of “Zero Se Restart”, a behind-the-scenes documentary on the making of the acclaimed film “12th Fail”, directed and produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra.
Edited and directed by Jaskunwar Singh Kohli, the documentary is produced under the banner of Vinod Chopra Films and is now streaming in India and over 200 countries and territories worldwide on Prime Video, a press release said. “Zero Se Restart” takes viewers deep into the filmmaking process, offering a candid look at the emotional and creative journey behind “12th Fail”, which featured Vikrant Massey and Medha Shankr in the lead roles and emerged as a box office success in October 2023. The movie was based on author Anurag Pathak’s bestselling novel that chronicled the journey of IPS officer Manoj Kumar Sharma and IRS officer Shraddha Joshi. The documentary highlights the challenges, triumphs, and the intense commitment of the cast and crew as they brought the inspiring story to life.
“’Zero Se Restart’ may initially seem like a behind-the-scenes documentary – and it certainly is. But when viewed, I hope a more powerful story emerges. I had little idea how to film ’12th Fail’ when I started — and yet, here it is,” said Chopra.
