Everyone expected a breezy romantic comedy and a successful film at the box office with EPIC, starring Anand Deverakonda and Vaishnavi Chaitanya. Instead, the film has turned out to be a complete disaster at the box office.
EPIC Box Office Collections
After four days in theaters, the numbers paint a grim picture:
| Territory | 4-Day Gross |
|---|---|
| All India (Tracked) | ₹5.77 Cr |
| Overseas (Estimated) | ₹2.73 Cr |
| Worldwide Total | ₹8.5 Cr |
| Break-Even Target | ₹25 Cr |
| Current Recovery | 34% |
With collections of just ₹8.5 Cr worldwide against a ₹25 Cr break-even target, recovery stands at a dismal 34%. This means EPIC has been a big disaster at the box office, joining other recent box office failures this year.
Poor Reviews Seal the Film’s Fate
After receiving unanimous negative or mixed reviews, EPIC could not get big numbers on day 1, and collections continued to go downward from day 2. The trend showed no signs of recovery throughout the four-day period.
The film’s poor performance is particularly disappointing given the expectations surrounding it. The romantic comedy starring Anand Deverakonda and Vaishnavi Chaitanya was expected to connect with audiences, but negative word-of-mouth proved decisive.
By any means, this result is disappointing for all the parties involved with the film.
