Half Girlfriend is the adaptation of Chetan Bhagat’s overnight bestseller with the same name.

While Half Girlfriend features fan favourites Arjun Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor, the widely appreciated film also features critically acclaimed character actors like Vikrant Massey, Rhea Chakraborty and Seema Biswas as pivotal characters. Half Girlfriend’s music has been beautifully composed by Raju Singh who has many chartbusters that have enjoyed the top spot on several countdowns. In fact, Baarish and Phir Bhi Tumko Chahunga have blossomed into love anthems which continue to enthrall music-lovers till date.

Half Girlfriend’s storyline revolves around a simple boy from Bihar, Madhav Jha (Arjun Kapoor) who gains admission in a much sought after college in Delhi owing to his prowess at basketball. His sports quota admission, though, doesn’t guarantee Madhav a fluency in English which makes him feel like an outcast. On campus, he befriends Riya Somani (Shraddha Kapoor), a typical Delhi girl who shares his passion for basketball. The two share a terrific bond and are often seen together where it becomes evident to onlookers that their bond has progressed beyond friendship. For the simpleton at heart, Madhav, the friendship seems like love and he proposes to Riya on her birthday. 

Will Riya ever understand and accept Madhav’s love for her? Will she ever go beyond being only his Half Girlfriend?
