OC Ukeje’s character in the movie was in full force that he didn’t only act but also sang and danced which spiced up his romantic role in the movie.

Two beautiful hearts whose passion and love sunk on each other’s only to face vehement opposition on the basis of religion and tribe from her father. The battle for love and togetherness invited great war from her father and poses threat to the happy relationship of both parents so how does these love birds get over this ethno-religious barrier? Will love triumph? North East is a must watch.

I was casting already so you can’t have any challenges when you have OC Ukeje, Carol King, Belinda and others. In fact, professionals surrounded me. Belinda played two scenes and she’s fantastic and unforgettable. No challenges at all,” he added.
