Gorgeous Thandeka Zulu is a talented actress and singer. Although she was booted by the SABC1 telenovela Uzalo, the
Afro Soul group member is set to take the acting world by storm.
The rising actress has been busier than ever.
She has shot a movie called Emthonjeni Wothando that Mzansi Magic screened on Sunday.
She also recently finished shooting a docu-drama series for SABC1 called Ngempela.
In the series, Thandeka plays the role of Nomvula. The character is that of a married woman who sleeps with her
husband’s best friend.
The rising star added that the SABC1 telenova taught her how to build her career.
“After my exit from the show, I did not just fold my arms and feel sorry for myself.
“I decided to get out of my comfort zone and spread my wings.
“I mean, uzoyithola kanjani uhlez’ ekhoneni?” asked Thandeka.
The actress said she knew she had a bright future in the acting world after she acted in the Pastor Mjosty movie Kwaito
Church Service 2 .
But Uzalo was her big break.
“I couldn’t believe I was going to act alongside veteran actors and actresses like Bheki Mkhwane, Leleti Khumalo and Don
Mlangeni.
“It was an honour for me.
“They gave me the courage to have no limits when it comes to achieving dreams,” she said.
Most of the roles she has landed involve her character cheating on her partner, be it a boyfriend or a husband,
But she said in real life she is nothing like her characters as she is very loyal and happy with her boyfriend.
Thandeka also dreams of owning her own production company one day and becoming one of the world’s most respected
actresses.
