Plot

Sara (Shiyaza Mohamed) invites her Instagram friend, Ina (Washiya Mohamed) to her island to capture nature photos, who happens to be her husband, Naveen's (Yoosuf Shafeeu) ex-girlfriend. Naveen broke up with Ina, four years ago, due to her behavior and thirst for money. Naveen's younger brother, Mubeen (Ali Azim) aspires to become a politician though he refuses to compete with his brother, Naveen, who is the current atoll councilor. However, his soon-to-be wife, Niufa (Irufana Ibrahim), a policewoman, puts pressure on him to compete against his brother and to replace him. Ina starts blackmailing Naveen into fulfilling her demands and makes advances on him. Naveen decides to meet her to clear all their misunderstandings but gets caught by Niufa during her night patrolling. Once Ina's behavior was unbearable for Naveen, he throws her out of their house, much to Sara's discomfort and surprise. Naveen agrees to meet Ina one last time to delete the misrepresentative photos of their initial encounter, but Sara follows him and catches them together. Ina fabricates lies and changes her narrative to blame everything on Naveen, which leads to the separation of Naveen and Ina. Things take an unexpected turn when their separation is celebrated by some close friends while revealing the mastermind behind the ploy.
