A year after the release of '12th Fail', filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra released the documentary 'Zero Se Restart'. The eighty-eight-minute film provides a detailed insight into the filming of  Chopra's critically acclaimed super hit film '12th Fail'. The documentary is directed by Jaskunwar Singh Kohli who was one of the editors, writers, and associate directors of '12th Fail'.

Vikrant Massey was not the first choice for Manoj in 12th Fail

The film was released on December 13. One major revelation in the documentary was that Vikrant Massey was not the first choice for the lead role of Manoj Kumar Sharma. The film is based on Anurag Pathak's book 'Twelfth Fail: Hara Wahi Jo Ladaa Nahi' and even Anurag preferred Varun Dhawan's casting over anyone else. Many other team members felt the same too.
