Nashidha Mohamed is a Maldivian actress.
Mohamed was first noticed by the owner of the production studio Corona Arts while he was attending an event held in Kulhudhuffushi, where she was performing onstage. [1] Impressed with her appearance and dancing skills, he offered her to star in a video alongside Ahmed Asim. [1]
Her next appearance was in Abdul Fattah's horror film Eynaa (2004), alongside Sheela Najeeb, Mohamed Manik, Ahmed Shah, Khadheeja Ibrahim Didi, and Ibrahim Jihad. [2] [3] The film garnered critical acclaim, especially for its technical team, and was a commercial success. [4] She then stepped into Fathimath Nahula's critically and commercially successful romantic drama television series Kalaage Haqqugaa to portray the role of Zeena. [5] [6]
In April 2006, Ahmed Nimal's revenge thriller film Hiyani was released, featuring Mohamed in a small role. [7] The film received mostly positive reviews from critics. [8]
Mohamed's first release of 2010 was Ali Seezan's family drama Maafeh Neiy , alongside Ali Seezan and Niuma Mohamed. [9] The film highlights many Maldivian social issues, including human rights abuses, forced marriage, and domestic violence. [9] The film received mixed reviews from critics, the majority of whom dismissed its melodrama; it was a moderate success at the box office. [9] Mohamed next appeared in Ali Shifau's family drama Dhin Veynuge Hithaamaigaa , once more alongside the Maldives' top female star Niuma Mohamed. [10] The film and her performance received positive reviews from critics and was believed to be a "huge improvement" over recent Maldivian films; it proved to be another commercial success. [11] The actress next starred opposite Sheela Najeeb, Mohamed Manik, and Yoosuf Shafeeu in Ahmed Nimal's horror film Zalzalaa En'buri Aun (2010), [12] a spin-off of Aslam Rasheed's classic horror film Zalzalaa (2000). The film revolves around a mariage blanc, a man's murder by his wife, and the avenging of his death. The film received mixed responses from critics and did moderately well at the box office. [12]
The following year, Mohamed played a small role in the Moomin Fuad-directed crime tragedy drama Loodhifa . [13] Featuring an ensemble cast, the film deals with current social issues in Maldivian society told from the different perspective of each character. [14] Made on a budget of MVR 600,000, the film was declared a commercial failure, though it received wide critical acclaim, praising the performance of the cast and the film's "realism" in its language, characters, and their attitudes. [13] Mohamed next appeared in Ali Shifau's psychological romance thriller Zaharu alongside Ali Seezan, Niuma Mohamed, and Sheela Najeeb. [15] The film centres around a married man who has a brief affair with a woman who becomes obsessed with him; it was inspired by the Adrian Lyne-directed American psychological erotic thriller Fatal Attraction (1987). [15] Upon release, it received mixed reviews from critics and was declared a flop at the box office. [11] The same year, the actress collaborated with Amjad Ibrahim on his family drama Hithey Dheymee , which received negative reviews from critics and was a box office disaster. [16]
In 2017, Mohamed was cast alongside Yoosuf Shafeeu, Fathimath Azifa, and Jadhulla Ismail in the Mohamed Aboobakuru-directed Neydhen Vakivaakah , which was a critical and commercial failure. [17] [18] [19]
2018 was a slow year for the Maldivian film industry due to the presidential election, and Mohamed only appeared in one film: a suspense thriller titled Dhevansoora , written and directed by Yoosuf Shafeeu. [20] The production marks Shafeeu's thirtieth project and features an ensemble cast of twenty-one actors. [21] The film received positive reviews from critics and was considered a "norm-breaker" for Maldivian cinema. [22] Ahmed Hameed Adam, reviewing for VNews, wrote: "Though Mohamed has a small and deviated role in terms of its main plot, she makes an impact with her performance". [22]
In 2019, Mohamed's first appearance was in Moomin Fuad's psychological horror thriller Nivairoalhi , which marked Niuma Mohamed's last film as an actress. [23] [24] The film received majorly positive reviews from critics; Aishath Maaha of Dho? favoured the performance of the lead actors and mentioned the "neat arrangement" of its screenplay, though pointing out its "weak ending". [25]
In 2018, Mohamed was ranked ninth in Dho?'s list of Top Ten Actresses of Maldives, with writer Aishath Maaha opining that she is a "promising" actress who is still "relevant even during her long career". [26]
