SKEEM Saam actress Inno Sadiki just bagged her first Netflix gig and she is over the moon.
Inno (34), who is also a TV presenter and reality TV star, is in a film called The Throne and it just got on the international streaming platform.
She and The Wife actor Sipho Ndlovu lead the film and she said she’s proud of her excellent performance.
She plays Mahlatse, who supports her husband to be a king and she spoke to Daily Sun about the show.
“I’m still trying to process it. It really feels great and worth it. It just puts that mark and validation to say I’m walking in my purpose and living in it. And it feels good to have these celebrations because sometimes it gets tiring and such things revive your spirit and energy,” said Inno.

She also shared what the film, which also stars David Mello, Charles Maja and the late Candy Moloi, is about.
“It’s about sons of a king who are fighting for the throne, and I am the wife of one of the sons. They just want to take over the family name, dynamics, and want to rule and reign over the entire community,” she said.
“It was filmed in 2018, such a long time ago, and I guess the producers never stopped pushing it. They worked hard to make sure it goes out there. And their hard work finally got it onto Netflix,” said the actress.
Inno said she is proud of the story and how it was filmed.
“And the fact that this is based on a Pedi story, we speak proper Pedi and represent the people. It’s just about so many untold stories,” she said.
“It’s authentic, it’s told in a South African way in a way that our people can understand, and I think it was well achieved,” said Inno.
Inno is also on Honey TV’s reality TV show, Pastors’ Wives. She also bagged a Master of Fine Arts degree in motion pictures under film and TV from Afda earlier this year.
