Half Girlfriend is directed by Mohit Suri. Arjun, 31, features as Madhav Jha as a basketball player, who joins a college in Delhi while Shraddha, 30, stars as Riya Somani, a basketball player in the same college.

Here's the motion poster of Half Girlfriend:
Last week, in the first poster of the film, we saw Arjun and Shradhha romancing in the rain.
Half Girlfriend went on floors in March 2016. It has been shot in New York City, Cape Town, and Delhi. The film is scheduled to release on May 19.
In an interview to DNA, Mohit Suri revealed that he changed the story of the novel for his film. The director said that changes have been made in the character and backstory of Shraddha's character. "While Riya has some dark family secrets, they are not related to sexual abuse. I have moved out of that dark, sexual zone completely. I wanted it to be more of a love story and to deal with contemporary social issues relatable to women," DNA quoted Mohit Suri as saying.
Apart from Half Girlfriend, Arjun Kapoor, who was last seen in Ki And Ka, will be seen in Mubarakan, co-starring Ileana D' Cruz and his uncle and actor Anil Kapoor. Meanwhile, Shraddha Kapoor will be seen in Haseena: The Queen Of Mumbai.
