Actor Nyaniso Dzedze on dealing with fame

Johannesburg- Ashes to Ashes actor Nyaniso Dzedze may be on his way up but plans to not let fame get to his head. 

Well, at least his strict mom will make sure he doesn't!

The actor told Drum magazine that landing a role on the new telenovela and starring in local flick Hear Me Move has been a dream come true for him. 

"It hasn't sunk in. I also think I don't want it to sink in. I'm scared it's going to get to my head," he explained. 

Nyaniso added that his mom will ensure that things don't get that far. "I've been taught and raised to be respectful and humble," he added. 

Born in the Eastern Cape Nyaniso's also very much in touch with his roots and is proud of his culture. 

"I'd often visit home where I'd herd cattle and walk barefoot," he added. 

Next time please can we come along Nyaniso!
