Veteran Nollywood actor, Yinka Quadri has a message for aspiring actors who want to thrive in the movie industry.
He urged them to drop their egos and be patient if they hope to succeed in the industry
In an interview with Saturday Beats, Quadri said, “My advice to aspiring actors is to be patient and stay calm. Anyone with an ego should leave it at home to truly learn, grow and succeed in this industry.”
Quadri also commended young actors and filmmakers for their efforts in elevating Yoruba culture through their movies. He said, “A Yoruba proverb says a tradition that does not include the younger ones is not sustainable.
Thank God that even in our lifetime, our younger ones are elevating our culture. In fact, they are taking it beyond the level we took it. You know the prayer we always say is that our children will be greater than us. We are very happy with what is happening.”
