Produced by Damilola Osikoya for Switch Visuals Productions and directed by Samuel ‘Bigsam’ Olatunji, the film combines humour with social commentary on love, fidelity, and the double lives people sometimes lead.

Speaking at the premiere, producer Damilola Osikoya expressed excitement about the project and its reception.“This film is a reflection of real human relationships, but told in the most hilarious way possible. At its core, it is about love, betrayal, and the awkward situations people get into when they try to juggle double lives. We wanted audiences to laugh, but also to see the lessons hidden in the comedy,” she said.
