’12th Fail’ was not in the race itself:
The winners are announced directly at the National Film Awards, the list of all shortlisted films is not announced. Therefore, it cannot be clearly said which films are the jury’s favorites in the race for the award. However, due to the general feeling of the audience and critics about the films, people try to guess. But ’12th Fail’ could not enter the National Award race this time. There is a very technical reason behind it. The National Film Awards are given to films that have been given a censor certificate by the Film Censor Board between January 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022. While, in December 2022, the shooting of Vikrant Massey’s ’12th Fail’ was completed. The film received a censor certificate on 6 October 2023 (the certificate is displayed at the beginning of the film) and was released in theaters on 27 October. That means it is not in the cut off date of the 70th National Film Awards. This also means if you are a fan of ’12th Fail’ don’t despair, the film will be in the race for the next i.e. 71st National Awards.
