Muhamma (Mohamed Abdulla), an old-fashioned, short-tempered man, visits Male' and problems follow with him from bumping on random people walking by. On his way to his friend's home, he spots a gorgeous poster woman, Mariyam (Sheereen Abdul Wahid) where he falls in love with at first sight. His friend, Habeeb (Hussain Nooradeen) advises him to undergo a full makeover and wear modern attire, if he insists to win her heart. He goes from door-to-door asking for her whereabouts where he meets her father, who warns him to stay away from his daughter. Soon, he becomes shortly distracted after seeing another woman (Waleedha). This does not stop Muhamma from his hunt for Mariyam though Habeeb recommends him to go back to his island and return after performing black magic to win her love.
Fathuhiyya, who got pregnant forty years later goes into an unusual labor during her eleventh month of pregnancy. The newborn child grows up to an adult, Muhamma (Mohamed Abdulla), within a fraction of few seconds, who seems to be possessed by Michael Jackson. A song later it is revealed that Muhamma has a body of an adult but a mind of five years' child. However, when it comes to women, Muhamma has a very mature mind and is incontrollable with his feelings and desires.
