Barely a week after returning in the country from Nigeria, Zimbabwe’s actress and comedian, Tyra Chikocho aka Madam Boss has clinched another acting role on a South African telenovela, uBettina Wethu, that country’s own version of Ugly Betty to be aired on SABC 1.
Madam boss received the news yesterday via social media.
The comedian and actress who was on holiday in Kariba with some of her colleagues, including Lorraine Guyo, had to cut short her vacation short to prepare for South Africa as she will be on set tomorrow.
The actress recently returned to the country last week from Nigeria where she was shooting for another film production for a Nollywood movie.
In March, Madam boss was in South Africa shooting a drama.
Madam Boss announced her casting role on her Instagram and Facebook accounts and her casting agent, Becky Casting Agency that operates from South Africa and wrote: “Guys, help me to congratulate this amazing and talented lady. She has been cast to feature on SABC 1s new telenovela, uBettina Wethu as Aminata.”
The agency urged Madam Boss to proudly showcase her talent to South Africans, “Come and show South Africa your talent. We are proud and humbled to represent your phenomenal talent.”
Madam excitedly and proudly thanked Becky Casting Agency and her husband, Ngoni Munetsiwa for believing and supporting her and pleaded the agency to also assist fellow Zimbabwean actors and actresses so that they get acting roles in South Africa just like herself.
“Thank you Becky Casting Agency. Please assist my fellow actors and actresses here in Zimbabwe, please Becky I beg, this is big. Thank you my husband Mhofela for allowing and supporting my dream,” wrote Madam Boss on her Facebook and Instagram page.
Madam boss has pleaded with Becky before to assist fellow Zimbabwean actors the same way she recognised her talent.
