Veteran actor Richard Mofe-Damijo (RMD) has offered words of wisdom to comedian-turned-filmmaker Basketmouth, urging him to seek guidance from industry experts as he prepares to launch his debut movie, “A Ghetto Love Story.”
In an Instagram clip, RMD congratulated Basketmouth on his bold move, emphasising that filmmaking requires more than raw talent.
RMD stressed that venturing into filmmaking isn’t just about talent, but about leaning on the expertise of those who have paved the way.
“When you enter, go find people wey hold ground. People wey dey control the whole area. All of them like Funke Akindele, Mo Abudu, AY, Kunle Afolayan and other people wey dey do film well. Wey be oga. Call them.
“Tell them you want to know one or two things. Comedy with Buchi fit work, but that na after you don pay respect to people wey hold ground.”
