Anand Deverakonda and Vaishnavi Chaitanya’s EPIC – First Semester is witnessing disastrous EPIC collections at the box office. The much-awaited reunion of the Baby lead pair has failed to convert pre-release buzz into ticket sales, with the film managing just ₹6 Cr worldwide in its opening two days.
EPIC Box Office Collections Breakdown
| Territory | 2-Day Gross |
|---|---|
| All-India | ₹3.71 Cr |
| Worldwide | ₹6 Cr (estimated) |
The film recorded a below-average opening day, and collections dropped further on its second day—a worrying trend for any new release. These are disappointing numbers for a project helmed by Aditya, the director behind the hit web series #90s, and starring the lead pair from Baby.
Negative Reviews Sink EPIC Performance
EPIC – First Semester opened to unanimous negative reviews from its premiere shows, which severely damaged audience interest. Despite carrying decent pre-release buzz thanks to the Baby reunion factor and Aditya’s involvement, the film has been unable to overcome poor word-of-mouth at the box office.
With no improvement in daily EPIC collections and numbers continuing to decline, the film faces an uphill battle. The upcoming weekend will be critical in determining whether it can at least reach a double-digit gross, though current trends suggest even that modest milestone may be difficult to achieve.
