Premise

The film opens showing the strong bond between Shahil (Yoosuf Shafeeu) and his best friend, tomboy Fazlee (Niuma Mohamed) who are popular students at college. Although they are very close, both of them deny any romantic feelings for each other. They are then introduced to the college principal Mr. Shameel's (Ali Shameel) daughter Zeena (Sheela Najeeb) who joined the college from Oxford University to finish her degree. Zeena quickly becomes friends with Shahil and Fazlee while Shahil constantly flirts with Zeena, trying to win over her. As times fly by, Fazlee realises her true affection towards Shahil but before she is able to declare her feelings, she discovers that Shahil is in love with Zeena.
