"Meet Bhooma Devi, The Girlfriend MA Literature :). Watch The Girlfriend on Netflix out December 5 in Telugu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam. (sic)" said Netflix India on its official Instagram page.
The film, starring Dheekshith Shetty and Rashmika Mandanna, showcases how a fairytale romance between the leads slowly turns into a nightmare. Dheekshith Shetty's character becomes increasingly aggressive, causing trouble in his relationship with his partner. In an interview, Rashmika revealed that she was able to connect with the character on a deeper level.
"When Rahul first narrated this script to me, I remember tearing up.. there were so many moments that pinched my heart in ways I couldn’t explain. I kept thinking.. wait, I know this feeling..I’ve felt this before.. I don’t know how we don’t see these things when it’s all happening.. And what moved me even more was that these words, these emotions, were coming from a man. Things that most people wouldn’t even understand.. he did (sic)," said the actress.
She said that she could see herself in the character Bhooma. "Bhooma for me is the most special because that’s mostly me. I’ve understood myself a little more while playing her..every day, Rahul would explain a scene, and somehow, I’d just know what he meant, no follow-up needed.. My heart is full of love, pride, and happiness.. I just wish you feel what we felt while making this film (sic)," said Rashmika.
Anu Emmanuel, Rao Ramesh, and Rohini play pivotal roles in the movie. It was released on November 7, 2025.
