It seems that legendary actor Carlo Radebe isn't the only star who has had difficulty securing another acting gig in the showbiz industry.
According to TshisaLIVE, the former Ga Re Dumela actor Obed Baloyi has revealed that he has had it hard after Mzansi Magic's drama series Diep City got canned in March 2023.
He said that it was a massive blow for him:
"It's bad, really bad, and now I have all the time in the world. When I bump into people on the streets, they stop me to ask: 'When are you coming back? We want you, we miss you.' I know people miss me, and I miss being on TV too. Acting is my life, and I wonder what more I need to do to show producers that people want me back."The former Diep City star further mentioned that he has been surviving on side hustle projects to feed his family.
He said:
"Nowadays I get projects as a side hustle just to survive because I'm a father and I need to put food on the table. Sometimes people tell me all this is happening because of the tribe I'm from. If I was Sotho, Zulu or Afrikaner it would've been better. It hurts what's happening to me, but those are people's views."Mzansi mourns DiepCity actress Lebogang MpyanaIn a previous report, Briefly News caught online reactions to the news of beloved actress Lebogang Mpyana's passing.
