The official trailer, released on Monday, January 22, 2024, gave a glimpse into Sharon Ooja and Sabinus' highly comical journey of falling in love with each other.

However, Ooja's father in the film, portrayed by veteran actor Nkem Owoh, disapproves of Sabinus due to his financial status. Yet, this is not the sole obstacle, as the father's affluent and youthful boss, played by Deyemi Okanlawon, starts expressing interest in Ooja, adding another layer of complexity to Sabinus' pursuit of love.

Produced by David Rukeme other cast includes Warri Girl, Lillian Afegbai, Funky Mallam, Emem Inwang and Ryonne Razaq.

More details are expected to be revealed in the coming days, as a release date for the Showmax debut is yet to be announced.
