I lost about 3kg during filming because I truly experienced the pain and suffering of widowhood. That’s when I met the legendary Oliver Mtukudzi, one of the humblest people I’ve ever met.
Charles and my babamunini were doing dramas at Cyril Jennings Hall and they would come home together after their sessions. We got closer and that is how it all started.
He actually laughed when I told him about my expectations. That contributed to me becoming more independent. Of course, not everyone accepted it, especially when it came to in-laws of our time. Mind you, women were not allowed to do things on a national level.
The film had a tremendous impact. Thirty years later, it’s still talked about like it’s just been released. I will always treasure my memories on that project,”
