Nearly two years after The Girlfriend was announced, the teaser launch in late 2024 ramped up anticipation. But the silence from the makers afterward led to rumors and frustration among Rashmika’s fans, many hoping for news about when the film will hit theaters.

The movie features Dheekshith Shetty and produced by Dheeraj Mogilineni and Vidya Koppineedi. Music is by Hesham Abdul Wahab, cinematography by Krishnan Vasant, and editing has been done by Chota K Prasad.

Now, as the team vows to share news shortly, fans anticipate a renewed wave of activity around the film’s release. Until then, the buzz continues to rise for Rashmika’s “purely character-driven” project.
