Vidhu Vinod Chopra's 12th Fail turned out to be one of the most successful films of 2023. The movie, which is headlined by Vikrant Massey and Medha Shankar, continues to garner love from all quarters, despite it being released last year in October.

Now, in a conversation with Instant Bollywood, Vikrant and Medha revealed that every time they do a good job on set, their director used to give them ₹100 notes as a reward. When asked if “there any kind of competition on who is getting more notes” from their director, Medha said, “No-no, there was no competition, but the first time I got a hundred (₹100 note), I had to show it to everybody on set.”

The actress also revealed that she was on cloud nine after getting her first note, in front of Vikrant Massey. Medha Shankar added, “I have gone and shown it to everybody. And I told them, ‘Listen I got a hundred', because getting a hundred in front of Vikrant was like a big feat for me.”
