Rashmika Mandanna’s “The Girlfriend” continues to add moolah to its kitty, especially in North America. Now in its third weekend, the film has crossed the 700k mark in the region.
Released on 7 November 2025 in India and premiering on 6 November in North America, “The Girlfriend” has already turned profitable for its overseas distributor. The film broke even at the 350k mark, and everything since then has been pure profit. It has now become a highly successful venture for the distributor.
Generally, a Telugu film of this range is considered a super hit in North America when it crosses the $1 million mark. But given the acquisition cost and the strong returns, $700k is an impressive number and a solid success.
The Girlfriend: Final Box Office Verdict
Directed by Rahul Ravindran, “The Girlfriend” features Rashmika Mandanna in the main role, with Deekshith Shetty as the male lead. The film explores toxic relationships and highlights the importance of women standing up for themselves and walking away from them. While the film is an average grosser in the domestic Indian market, it is a hit in North America.
