“I remember borrowing a friend’s suit and going to auditions in Durban… I was desperate. In 2005 the Khethiwe Buthelezi role came up and I gave it my all. The producers told me they were giving me three months to prove myself,” SowetanLIVE quoted her as saying.
She was part of the cast including Rapulana Seiphemo who plays Tau Mogale and Manaka Ranaka, plays Lucy Diale, and more. Who still remembers the legendary scene with her and American actor Samuel L Jackson?
