Director Rohit Shetty’s recent Instagram post features him standing alongside Indian Police Service officer Manoj Kumar Sharma (left), who overcame poverty to rise up the ranks and become an assistant commissioner with Mumbai Police.
Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s film 12th Fail is a cinematic portrayal of ACP Sharma’s life.
Rohit captioned the photo: “Meet the real hero of 12th Fail Manoj Kumar Sharma, had the honour of working with him during Covid. If you have not seen 12th Fail, please do watch... it’s an inspiring story specially for students and youngsters.”
