Epic: First Semester is creating interest ahead of its theatrical release on September 11. The Telugu romantic drama is directed by debutant Aditya Hasan and follows two young adults as they deal with love, emotions, relationships and questions about their identity during their college years.
The film stars Anand Deverakonda and Vaishnavi Chaitanya in the lead roles. Their pairing and chemistry have become some of the points discussed after the trailer was released. Early reactions suggest that the film combines the lighter side of college life with emotional situations that the characters face as they grow and understand themselves.
Epic: First Semester has been produced by Sithara Entertainments and Fortune Four Cinemas. The music has been composed by Hesham Abdul Wahab, who is known for creating music that plays an important role in emotional and romantic stories.
The film also brings back Sivaji and Vasuki, who previously worked with director Aditya Hasan in his web series 90s: A Middle Class Biopic. Their presence adds another familiar connection for viewers who followed the earlier series.
The trailer was launched at an event in Hyderabad, where actress Rashmika Mandanna attended as the chief guest. The launch brought attention to the film and its young lead cast. Actor Vijay Deverakonda also shared his appreciation for the project online, adding to the discussion around the upcoming release.
The team has also been visiting colleges as part of the film’s promotional activities. These visits have helped the makers connect the story with the young audience that the film is likely to appeal to.
According to early reactions, Anand Deverakonda and Vaishnavi Chaitanya share good chemistry on screen. The film also appears to balance fun college moments with more serious emotional scenes. Rather than focusing only on romance, the story looks at the experiences and personal changes that young people can go through during their college years.
