The film is one, but it has two stories. The hero is one, but he is common to both, and till the mid point, the viewer is at his wits' end trying to differentiate between the two tracks. Jeeva is in charge of story, screenplay, direction and cinematography. And you have to give it to him, with two tales narrated simultaneously, the screenplay could have added to the chaos. But "12B" has a reasonable amount of clarity, and that is definitely a salvaging factor.

It is one story for the first fifteen minutes or so... till the writer emphasises the fact that things could change for man in a matter of a second and that even minor factors could alter his future. So the story forks from here.



Shaktivel has to attend an interview that morning. A minor obstacle at the bus stop makes him miss the bus (12B) literally and otherwise. That should justify the title. Parthiban's voice in the background tells you that henceforth will unfold two versions what would have happened to Shakti if he had been in time for the interview and also what happens because he is late. So for all practical purposes there are two Shaktis interacting with the same people in both.

Simran does a commendable job in the climax when she tries to pull Shakti out of his unconscious state. But why she looks sad throughout is left to your surmise.

Jeeva's intelligence can be noticed in a few places like the scene in which Arvind (Sunil Shetty) comes face to face with Jyotika's lover Shaktivel.
The film has plenty of youthfulness, fun, vibrance and vivacity.
