After the tremendous run of their prehistoric fun family film ‘The Croods’, Fox Star Studios have added yet another splendid success to their 2013 kitty as EPIC has garnered the 5th biggest animation opening for India!!
Having released first in India, a week ahead of its international counterparts, EPIC has opened to 3.6 Crores Gross Box Office in India (2.52 cr NET ), despite a crowded Box Office with simultaneous releases of high profile Hollywood releases such Amitabh Bachchan's 'The Great Gatsby’ and Mira Nair’s ‘The Reluctant Fundamentalist’ whose figures are far behind those of EPIC.
This is the 5th biggest animation opening in India after Ice Age 4, Kung Fu Panda 2, Madagascar 3 and The Croods. Boosted by critical and popular acclaim, the stunning 3D comedy-fantasy adventure has triggered a phenomenal word of mouth for its family content and visual banquet.
Vijay Singh, CEO, Fox Star Studios speaks on the happy occasion, "We are delighted with the fantastic weekend opening for EPIC following the superb success of ‘The Croods’. With imaginative storytelling and an emotional appeal, it is the perfect feel-good holiday film for the entire family."
Well, if you haven’t yet caught the magic animation in theatres, catch EPIC at a screen near you soon!!
About EPIC
From the creators of Ice Age and Rio, EPIC beings a fantastical world that tells the story of an ongoing battle between the forces of good, who keep the natural world alive, and the forces of evil, who wish to destroy it. When a teenage girl finds herself magically transported into this secret universe, she teams up with an elite band of warriors and a crew of comical, larger-than-life figures, to save their world…and ours. Having brought to life one of the most beloved and successful animated motion picture franchises, Ice Age, director Chris Wedge and his teams at Blue Sky Studios (of which Wedge is a co-founder) achieve new heights of realism, action, adventure and detail, with EPIC. EPIC’s world, which unites the familiar and the fantastic, is a forest unlike any we’ve seen before: tiny seeds look like boulders; rocks are the size of spiky mountains; flowers are gigantic and complex; and a butterfly is a nothing short of a flying tapestry. EPIC stars the voices of Colin Farrell, Josh Hutcherson, Amanda Seyfried, Christoph Waltz, Aziz Ansari, Pitbull with Steven Tyler and Beyoncé Knowles.
