# Suria's Husband The story follows Suria (Nabila Razali) who works at a fashion company. She is known for her unique sense of style, fond of wearing traditional Malay kebaya with canvas shoes. Suria has never had a boyfriend since college and is so busy with work that her mother, Cik Pah (Rozita Che Wan), becomes worried that her daughter will never get married. Without Suria's knowledge, Cik Pah has accepted a marriage proposal on her behalf. Cik Pah also keeps secret the identity of her future husband and orders Suria to find out who the man is. Cik Pah only gives one clue: Suria also knows this man. From that day on, Suria begins to observe the men around her. Who among her acquaintances is her future husband?
