Rashmika Mandanna starrer The Girlfriend recently completed its fourth day at the box office. The Telugu romantic drama (also released in multiple languages) started its theatrical run with positive audience feedback but only moderate collections. While it managed to win the clash against Sonakshi Sinha’s Jatadhara, its competition with Yami Gautam’s Haq remains tough.
The Girlfriend Box Office Collection Day 4
After releasing on Friday, The Girlfriend opened with Rs 1.3 crore on its first day. Thanks to strong word of mouth, the weekend saw some growth (Rs 2.4 crore on Saturday and Rs 2.7 crore on Sunday), according to Sacnilk. However, the film dropped again on Monday, collecting around Rs 1.10 crore. This takes its total domestic collection to approximately Rs 7.50 crore nett in four days.
The film had an overall 18.55% Telugu occupancy, performing best during the afternoon shows with 22.55%. The movie’s steady weekend rise hinted at growing audience interest, but Monday’s dip has raised questions about its sustainability.
Despite Rashmika’s rising popularity and the film’s multi-language release, The Girlfriend is still struggling to catch up with Haq in box office numbers. With a reported budget of Rs 25 crore, it now faces the challenge of maintaining steady weekday collections to stay in the race.

Yami Gautam’s Haq continues to hold its ground in the Hindi circuit.

While the Monday drop was expected on a working day, Haq has shown good momentum since its release.

About The Girlfriend And Haq
Directed by Rahul Ravindran, The Girlfriend tells the story of Bhooma Devi (played by Rashmika Mandanna), a postgraduate student who falls for college heartthrob Vikram (Dheekshith Shetty). What begins as love soon turns into a toxic relationship, leaving her trapped in emotional turmoil. The film also stars Anu Emmanuel and Rao Ramesh in key roles.
Produced by Dheeraj Mogilneni and Vidya Koppineni, The Girlfriend blends romance with a darker psychological theme. Her performance has been praised, even by critics who felt the story could have been tighter.
On the other hand, Haq, featuring Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi, continues to connect with urban audiences through its intense plot and gripping performances. Its strong hold over the Hindi-speaking belt has given it a clear lead over The Girlfriend, especially beyond South markets.
