Watch: Epic Takes A Bold Route With Untouched Themes

Epic is one of the most awaited films as it brings back the hit combination of Baby to the silver screen. Anand Deverakonda and Vaishnavi Chaitanya play the main leads in this modern-day romance, which hits the screens on September 11, 2026.

Producer Naga Vamsi backs the film directed by Aditya Haasan and, he says Epic offers something different that Telugu moviegoers have not seen before.

Talking about Epic, Naga Vamsi says Telugu films have not shown what happens between a young man and woman from different backgrounds after they become physically close. The ace producer adds that such situations create a lot of space for cinematic drama, and Epic maturely handles this aspect.

Naga Vamsi also adds that Epic discusses taboo topics like periods. “Epic is a commercial experiment that deals with such topics in a very entertaining way,” says Naga Vamsi. He also adds that Epic has a unique ending, unlike other films in Telugu cinema.

Listening to Naga Vamsi’s words, the success of Epic will depend on how well the makers connect these fresh themes with an engaging story. Off late, Telugu audiences have shown interest in films that present relationships in a realistic manner.

With such a risky subject, everything depends on how director Aditya Haasan handles this aspect. If Epic works commercially, it could encourage more filmmakers to discuss subjects that are usually ignored in mainstream Telugu cinema. Let’s see what happens.
