The cast and crew
‘The Perfect Arrangement’ is written by Oluwapelumi Bifarin and Chinaza Onuzo who doubles as director, and produced by Zulumoke Oyibo.
Speaking at the premiere, Mr Onuzo said the major hurdle faced during the production was time.
“We shot in Lagos, Abeokuta, a lot of places, lots of locations, like 34 locations all through. My company and FilmOne did a great job with an amazing crew. We had a seamless experience during the film. Love is fun, and love makes everything all right,” he said.
Mr Onuzo also described the rom-com movie as an ambitious project.
“We want to tell a different kind of Nollywood story, we want to be very professional and excellent in our doing, we want to provide 100 per cent entertainment and unpredictable story at the cinema and we have a solid cast that can deliver the perfect performance,” he added.
The ensemble cast includes Sharon Ooja, Bovi Ugboma, Pere Egbi, Debo “Mr Macaroni” Adedayo, Rotimi Salami, Dorcas Shola Fapson (Ms DSF), Wofai Fada, Adunni Ade, Mimi Chaka, Ummi Baba Ahmed, and Funsho Adeolu.
The movie is set to hit the cinema nationwide on Friday, just weeks after another Inkblot title – the newly released thriller ‘The Blood Covenant’ opened in cinemas.
