Madhav is a good basketball player who cannot speak English well. He gets accepted into St Stephen's College Delhi based on a sports quota where he meets Riya Somani, an upper-class young girl who is allowed temporary admission based on a sports quota. They become good friends and play basketball every evening. When Madhav tells his roommate Shailesh and friends about Riya, they push him to ask Riya out for a date, but she refuses and asks him just to be a friend. Madhav's friends still encourage him to pursue Riya in the hopes that she will eventually date him.

When Madhav attends Riya's birthday, he questions her about the nature of their relationship. Uncomfortable, Riya says that she is not his girlfriend, but they can maybe reach a compromise since they have reached halfway, and she offers to be his "half girlfriend". One afternoon after a game Madhav asks Riya if she would like to rest in his room in a boys only dorm, where (goaded by his peers and feeling humiliated by Riya's uncertainty) Madhav tries to force himself upon Riya. Upset and hurt, a few days later, Riya tells Madhav that she is leaving college and getting married. Madhav tries to stop her but she leaves.

After completing college, Madhav goes back to his village where Madhav's mother runs a school where only boys study because there are no girls' toilets. Madhav learns that Bill Gates is coming to Patna and will be funding grants to schools. Madhav decides to apply for a grant, for which he goes to Chanakya hotel in Patna.

After the meeting, Madhav meets Riya, who is living in the hotel and works for CloseUp. They hang out for some time, and Madhav learns that Riya has divorced because her husband and his mother tried to beat her. As Madhav needs to give a speech in English for Bill Gates, Riya helps him prepare for it. At the time of preparing Madhav for the speech in English, Riya falls in love with Madhav which she does not tell him till the end. One day, he takes her to his house, where Madhav's mother asks her about her marriage. She acts rudely after discovering that she is a divorcee. A few days before the speech, when Riya has to go back to Patna, Madhav's mother asks her to stay away from Madhav. She, however, attends Madhav's speech, where he is successful in getting a grant from the Bill Gates Foundation. After the speech ends, a young girl from the school hands a letter from Riya to Madhav. The letter says that Riya has been diagnosed with blood cancer and will die in three months. She requests him not to search for her as she herself does not know where she will go. Madhav is seen going to Riya's house to deliver her belongings to her mother, who starts crying on learning about Riya's disease. Madhav recalls that she wanted to become a singer at a bar in New York. Unprepared, Madhav goes to New York to visit his friend Shailesh.

Shailesh and his wife Rutvi learn about the incident and try to deviate Madhav's attention from Riya. Rutvi tries to set him up with Anshika, her friend. They spend some time together. Madhav tries to find Riya for three months continuously, until his time runs out.

On the last day, when he was attending his farewell party, he sees a video where Anshika, who had fallen in love with him, thanks him for being a part of her life. In this video, Madhav sees a blurred picture of Riya singing in a cafe. He runs to the caf and finds Riya and understands that she had lied to Madhav about being sick as his mother didn't want Riya, a divorcee to be with her son. They reconcile and consummate their relationship.

A few years later, Madhav is seen talking to his mother about opening a new school, and Riya helps their daughter Tvisha Jha learn to play basketball, but she is unable to do it. Riya tells her daughter to never give up.

The film went into production in March 2016. Prominent shooting locations included St. Stephen's College in New Delhi and Times Square and the UN Headquarters in New York City. It is the first Bollywood movie to be shot at the UN headquarters. The basketball action in the film is by Rob Miller, NBA and the ReelSports team.[10] Around 200 students from different colleges were roped in to play extras as some of the scenes demand Delhi University students in the film.[11] The trailer was released on 10 April.

So I finally got around to reading Chetan's latest - courtesy my roommate - and I can't say that I started with high hopes. There was no way it was going to be a literary masterpiece and I was happy that it provided any intellectual activity at all. But then again, Chetan Bhagat's books are not meant to cater for those readers. Being in relatively simple English, he is in fact proving adept at making the youth of India read, and this may be why he incorporates the Bollywood-type-masala-romance element into his writing. But it's working. And on some level it does make for an entertaining read.

The crux of the book is a love story between a guy and a girl. Simple. Enter the guy, Madhav - a tall, outdoorsy basketball player from rural Bihar with almost no existent working English knowledge. Enter the girl, Riya - also a tall, pretty basketball player from one of the richest families in Delhi with excellent command over English. Their 1st meeting - predictably, is on a basketball court. The half girlfriend element of the story is rather weak, with Riya agreeing to be his close friend, but not his girlfriend, apparently facing intimacy issues. There are enough plot elements to keep one interested without becoming too predictable and being spread across three "Acts", the story moves from Delhi to Bihar and then on to New York incorporating settings varying from St. Stephens College to the Gates Foundation.

Without wanting to divulge too many spoilers, I could say that it is probably worth your time, if not for the simple filmy story, then atleast for the social element. Yes, that's right. Chetan Bhagat does include a lot of pointers on how he thinks society should function ideally, be it the cleanliness and noise free atmosphere in the streets of New York, or the way English does create segments in our society, although these pointers are few and far apart. The voice in Madhav's head is also humorous - at times. But all in all it does a decent job of introducing social awareness within the story, the strongest such attempt that Bhagat has produced yet. There is no doubt that there is a movie deal in store for this book, but whether you like it or not is upto you!

I feel this is a perfect way to describe my journey last month: assessments staring at me with crossed hands and eyebrows raised and assignments creeping up my neck with a sinister smile. Between these was a friendly hand fondling my shoulders and it

We live in an era wherein you are judged on how many boyfriends or girlfriends we have depending on whether you are a girl or a boy! The quantum signifies your stand in the modern era. Facebook and Whatsapp times have made things easy and convenient to have and proclaim the number of girl or boy buddies you have. So it is a prestigious issue!!

The cover page sometimes conveys the whole stuff of the book, sometimes it gives clue of what remains to be served in the novel and sometimes it signifies nothing and keeps you hooked waiting for more, anxiously!!

Overall, the cover page is too intelligent to convey lot of things about the plot, and simple enough to give you clue and keep you anxious till you would have read the last page of this interesting flick.

Madhav is good at heart and is bound to achieve whatever is within his limitations. He is portrayed as a good yet obsessive (read as non dangerous) lover, a good son, a kind hearted man who wants to serve his village and villagers.

Madhav is also a cursed guy in most of the story. He loses Riya everytime because of the fact that he cannot express right things in right places in right ways and all his ways of expressing his love are wronged by Riya. This also shows the difference in maturity and vision of seeing life and relationships by both protagonists.

The story is all about expressing things in a right way, in right time, in right quality and right quantity, with right attitude, with right approach, with right maturity, if the right misses to hit, the wrong takes in!!

strange sort of ersatz filmmaking, splitting its bet between the 90s campus film (with none of the go for broke stylization you'd get with even like bobby deol in opening half of barsaat) and the 2000s yash raj/imtiaz multiplex film; what's left is pandering and lacking any kind of aesthetic or emotional center, every shot of characters walking moonily into the rain or running in ny in the snow seems like xerox of better films with more expensive color correct presets. will defend arjun and shradda kapoor who are very fine actors who have met with ridicule for being stranded in dreadful films but there is a reason everyone centers in on that hideous bill gates cgi impersonation, and that's because those baffling shots are such convenient metaphor for film as a whole.

Half Girlfriend is a tiresome retread of a familiar Bollywood setup. The world within the film exists for the manipulation and satisfaction of the male lead character, regardless of the toll it takes on the woman he pursues.
