Zero Se Restart is a documentary which was released today in cinemas and it throws light on how the much loved film 12th Film was made. The film is just 88 minutes long and starts on an amusing note. Director Jaskunwar Kohli is also the narrator and he uses hilarious one-liners to keep the interest going. Viewers will be surprised to see the story behind some of the key scenes and the insane lengths the team of the film went to get them right. There’s also an interesting trivia about the casting of Vikrant Massey that gets highlighted in the documentary. On the flipside, it is sad that the makers don’t focus on how the much-loved climax and pre-climax scene were filmed. Medha Shankr, who became a sensation after this film, is not highlighted much. Lastly, there’s a sound issue, which is understandable due to the chaos on the sets, but then, the makers should have released the film with subtitles. All in all, Zero Se Restart is a fine effort and will get its audience on OTT.
My rating – *** out of 5!
