The Lady Killer is a 2023 Indian Hindi-language crime thriller film directed by Ajay Bahl.[4] The film stars Arjun Kapoor and Bhumi Pednekar.[5][6] It was released in theatres on 3 November 2023.

Upon release, the film was critically panned and grossed a measly ₹38,000 on its first day having sold just 293 tickets across India, making it one of the biggest box office disasters in Indian cinema. After its poor theatrical run, no OTT platform acquired its streaming rights. Ultimately, the makers released the full film on T-Series YouTube channel.[7]
