[1] Written by Mohamed Gasim and Amjad Ibrahim, the film follows a married couple, Lathafa and Laamiu, whose lives are upended by a supernatural entity disguising itself as a friend to sow discord between them.

Desperate to escape its grasp, they relocate to N. Landhoo, a serene island where Laamiu secures a job at a family friend's shop.

Teaming up with the real Shareef, who had been displaced and trapped by the entity, Laamiu uncovers the dark magic tied to the amulet and the creature's true intent.

Following the commercial success of Udhabaani (2009), director Amjad Ibrahim and producer Hamid Ali began working on the development of a sequel in 2013.

[4][3] Initially, Ibrahim intended to start filming Udhabaani 2 in mid-2017, after completing his ongoing project, titled Dheythee Aniyaa.

[6] In 2020, director Amjad Ibrahim announced that Yoosuf Shafeeu would reprise his role, and Hamid Ali would return, but Amira Ismail would be replaced by a new actress due to her absence from the film industry at the time.

[7] However, as the project faced further delays, Ibrahim and producer Hamid Ali later approached Yoosuf Shafeeu and Amira Ismail to return to their roles in Udhabaani 2.

[7] However, due to COVID-19 pandemic, the project was put on hold, and several changes were needed, including reworking the cast, before the film could proceed.
