Veteran Nollywood
actress, Sola Sobowale, has opined that Nigerian filmmaker, Kemi
Adetiba is very instrumental to her growth in the movie industry.
In 2018, Kemi’s ‘King of Boys’
shot Sola to stardom due to her alpha female role and the strong personality
she exuded in the movie.
Speaking about her lead role
in the movie, the actress in an interview with media personality, Chude
Jideonwo, said Kemi Adetiba brought her out.
Sola said there is something
spectacular about Kemi and she knows her more than she knows herself.
According to the actress,
although it might sound like a broken record, she will still reiterate
that Kemi brought her out.
She said: “There’s
something about Kemi Adetiba. Kemi Adetiba will tell you who Sola Sobowale is.
I don’t even know myself. Kemi knows me more than I know myself.
“Kemi Adetiba brought me out.
I will say it anywhere. I don’t mind if it sounds like a broken record. I will
echo it. I will sing it. I will shout it. She brought me out.”
The veteran actress added that
she never watched herself in movies but she had to watch King of Boys.
She said: “I don’t watch
myself but I had to watch myself during King of Boys.”
