The movie is directed by Rahul Ravindran. Its cinematography is handled by Krishnan Vasant with production design by S Rama Krishna and Monika Nigotre.
Director Ravi Chandran talked about if there is any similarity between Arjun Reddy and The Girlfriend. He told NDTV, "Arjun Reddy is a cult film which was a game breaker in cinema and it's a much bigger film. My film is not close to it and honestly, this so-called similarity struck me only after the people on social media pointed it out. I actually thought of the story much before Arjun Reddy came about."
In the trailer, Rashmika is seen playing the role of a naïve and simple college student. Her life changes after she gets into a relationship with a fellow student. But the relationship soon turns sour and she finds herself in trouble with no support from anyone.
On the work front, Rashmika was recently seen in Thamma with Ayushmann Khurrana and Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
