About The Girlfriend
The film also stars Dheekshith Shetty, Anu Emmanuel, Rao Ramesh, and Rohini. The film is about a fairy tale love story between a couple, which turns toxic due to the character of Dheekshith Shetty being aggressive.
Talking about the film, Rashmika wrote on her X account, “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.. That day, I walked out of our meeting with two things -1- a script I knew would be a sin not to do.. 2- a friend for Life.”
She added, “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. Bhooma is too precious to me… please protect her, love her, and support her…”
