The film will start streaming on Netflix from December 5, 2025, much to the excitement of fans who missed watching it in theaters. Ahead of its OTT release, here’s a look at how the film performed during its theatrical run.

According to the latest update from box-office tracking portal Sacnilk, The Girlfriend has collected ₹17 crore net worldwide to date. While these numbers are respectable, they are considered modest when compared to the overwhelming praise the film received from critics and several sections of the audience.

Directed by Rahul Ravindran, the film stars Deekshith Shetty as the male lead. The story revolves around a young woman trapped in a toxic relationship and her emotional journey as she gathers the courage to break free.

The narrative, told in a gripping and realistic manner, resonated strongly with many viewers. However, during its release, the film faced trolling on social media, with some critics labeling it a feminist film intended only to impress a select few in the director’s circle.

However, Rashmika’s powerful and layered performance gave the film a wide reach and countered much of that negativity. Several women even took to social media to share their own stories of toxic relationships, saying they deeply connected with the character.

Produced by Allu Aravind, the film was hailed as Rashmika Mandanna’s career-best performance. The makers strongly believe that The Girlfriend will find even greater success once it arrives on OTT, where its emotionally driven content is expected to reach a much broader audience.
