Apart from working in Amjad Ibrahim's romantic drama film Kahvalhah Dhaandhen (2002) opposite Yoosuf Shafeeu, Najeeb collaborated with Ibrahim for his romantic horror film Dhonkamana (2003) which depicts the romantic relationship between a young man (played by Yoosuf Shafeeu) and an old woman (played by Fauziyya Hassan).[9] Featuring Hassan, Yoosuf Shafeeu, Niuma Mohamed, Sheereen Abdul Wahid, Amira Ismail and Aminath Rasheedha, the film received mainly negative reviews from critics though its inclusion of the theme portraying the relationship between a couple with a large age group was appraised.[10] It was followed by Abdul Faththaah-directed Aan... Aharenves Loabivin (2002) starred alongside Ali Seezan, Niuma Mohamed, Aminath Rasheedha and Neena Saleem where she played the role of Sara, the only child of a family who had a bitter relationship with her lovers and an unfortunate incident leading her to suffer from amnesia.[11] Upon release, the film opened to positive response from critics and was a commercially successful project.[12] She rose to widespread prominence in the television industry and was applauded for her performance as the forbearing second wife, in the Abdul Faththaah-directed critically acclaimed television series, Thiyey Mihithuge Vindhakee (2003) which was considered as one of the best series production in television industry.[13]

Najeeb's first release of 2010 was Ahmed Nimal's horror film Zalzalaa En'buri Aun starred oppsoted Yoosuf Shafeeu and Mohamed Manik.[29] It was a spin-off to Aslam Rasheed's horror classic film Zalzalaa (2000) starring, Ibrahim Wisan, Ali Shameel and Niuma Mohamed.[29] The film revolves around a mariage blanc, a murder of husband by his wife with secret lover and avenging of his death from everyone involved in the crime.[29] She played the role of Shahana, an avaricious wife who kills her husband with the help of her secret lover.[29] The film received mixed response from critics and it did average business at box office.[29] At the 6th Gaumee Film Awards, Najeeb received Gaumee Film Award for Best Actress award nomination for her performance in the film.[30] She next starred in Niuma Mohamed's directorial debut drama film Niuma (2010) alongside an ensemble cast including Mohamed, Yoosuf Shafeeu, Mohamed Manik, Aminath Rasheedha and Abdulla Muaz.[31] She played the role of Aminath, the whistleblower who tried to help her husband's sister from being sexually abused by her father and brother.[31] Upon release, the film met with widespread critical acclaim specifically complimenting the performance of actors and its dialogues.[31] Ahmed Naif from Sun wrote; "Najeeb's fluctuation of expression and emotion with the change in each scene is remarkable".[32] Being able to screen over thirty housefull shows of the film, it was declared a Mega-Hit at box office, and the highest grossing Maldivian release of the year.[33] The film fetched her a Best Supporting Actress nomination at 6th Gaumee Film Awards ceremony, while winning the same category at 2nd Maldives Film Awards.[34][30]

The last release of year featured Najeeb in Yoosuf Shafeeu's drama film Heyonuvaane (2010), opposite Shafeeu and Fathimath Fareela.[35] The story revolves around a male who is victimised of domestic abuse.[35] She played the role of ferocious wife who discriminate and abuses her husband for being underprivileged.[36] The film received majorly negative reviews from critics though her performance was singularly commended.[36] Ahmed Naif from Sun wrote: "The only good thing about this movie is [Najeeb]'s performance; which is clearly the best I have witnessed during the year from a heroine.[36] She received another nomination as the Best Supporting Actress at 6th Gaumee Film Awards ceremony.[30] Twenty two housefull shows of the film were screened at cinema, declaring it a Mega-Hit and second highest grossing Maldivian release of the year.[37]

In 2011, two films of Najeeb were released, both of them failed to impress critics and audience though her performance was considered to be "the best from the cast" from each film. She first featured in Ali Shifau's psychological romantic thriller Zaharu alongside Ali Seezan and Niuma Mohamed.[38] The film centers on a married man who has a weekend affair with a woman who refuses to allow it to end and becomes obsessed with him.[38] She played the role of Shaheen, a devious woman who goes to any extent to trap her school-life crush.[38] The film is inspired from Adrian Lyne-directed American psychological erotic thriller film Fatal Attraction (1987).[38] Upon release the film received mixed response from critics and was declared a "flop" at box office.[39] At the 7th Gaumee Film Awards, she received a nomination as Best Supporting Actress for the role.[40] She also received a nomination in the same category for her performance in Zaharu at 2nd Maldives Film Awards.[26] She then appeared in Yoosuf Shafeeu's family drama E Bappa (2011), featuring an ensemble cast including Hassan Manik, Yoosuf Shafeeu, Mohamed Manik, Amira Ismail, Lufshan Shakeeb, Mariyam Shakeela and Fathimath Fareela.[41] A film about fatherhood and how he has been treated by his family, received negative reviews for its "typical stereotype style" and was a box office failure.[41]

Najeeb's only release of 2012 was Abdul Fattah's romantic film Love Story (2012) alongside Ali Seezan, Amira Ismail and Aishath Rishmy.[42] The film received negative response from critics.[43] Displeased with the screenplay and performance of the actors, Ahmed Nadheem of Haveeru wrote: "None of the actors were given scope to build their characters and none was able to justify their character. With excessive emotional scenes, actors were exposed to over-acting and nothing more".[43]

In 2015, Najeeb appeared in Ali Shifau-directed romantic film Emme Fahu Vindha Jehendhen alongside Mohamed Jumayyil and Mariyam Majudha.[44] In a pre-premiere review from Vaguthu, Ismail Nail praised her acting skills along with those of Mohamed Manik.[45] The film was the highest grossing Maldive film of the year, and was a commercial success.[46] The following year, she played the role of Ruby, the frightened lady in a group of friends who gets trapped in a haunted house, in Fathimath Nahula's horror film 4426 (2016).[47] Upon release, the film received mostly positive reviews from critics. Ahmed Nadheem of Avas labelled the film as a "masterpiece" and noted her performance to be "good".[48] With twenty-five back-to-back housefull shows being screened, 4426 was declared as the highest grossing film of the year.[49] Shafeeu-directed Baiveriyaa (2016), a comedy film featuring an ensemble cast was her second release of the year.[50] The film revolves around an aspiring actress who flees from her family to pursue a career in the industry and the suspicions and confusions that arise.[51] Upon release the film was positively received by critics. Nazim Hassan of Avas applauded the comical timing of the characters and picked the heated arguments between Shafeeu and Najeeb as the highlights of the film.[52] He wrote: "Nobody could have played the role of Riyasha better than Najeeb. No one can match the evilness she has onscreen".[52] The film emerged as one of the highest grossing films of the year.[53]

2018 was a dull year for Maldivian film-industry with regards to 2018 Maldivian presidential election. Her only release of the year was the first Maldivian web-series, a romantic drama by Fathimath Nahula, Huvaa.[54] The series consisting of sixty episodes and streamed through the digital platform Baiskoafu, centers around a happy and radiant family which breaks into despairing pieces after a tragic incident that led to an unaccountable loss.[55][56] The series and her performance as a widow struggling to overcome with the memories of her deceased husband were positively received.[57][58] The following year, she starred in Yoosuf Shafeeu's horror comedy film 40+ (2019), a sequel to 2017 released comedy film Naughty 40, which was well received both critically and commercially.[59]
