DIPPY PADI: ‘THERE WAS A GREAT DEAL OF PRAYER’

Talented actress Dippy Padi tells Sunday World that she had to be sure about her identity before accepting Adulting character.

“I had to make sure that I knew how I would bring that character to life, as well as the story that we were acting out. There was a great deal of prayer and understanding.

The actress adds that she spent a lot of time in meditation and prayer, and her co-actor, Mpho (Thabiso Rammusi) helped.

The duo had a terrific relationship, helped each other develop their personas, and encouraged each other to portray their characters.

Padi also portrays the role of a seductive girlfriend of a notorious gangster in Netflix crime series, Soon Comes Night.

“I think Soon Comes Night touches on a plethora of issues that South Africa is currently facing; thus, I think everyone should watch it.”
