Leleti Khumalo has been around the proverbial acting block a couple of times and she has a few things to share.
We chatted to the veteran actress who plays the role of a pastors wife in the new SABC 1 telenovela Uzalo to find out what it is that makes her so successful as an actress- wannabe actors take note.
"Whenever you work with people don't take them for granted," she says, adding "Remember, life is a journey and you need to stand by your decisions".
She says she's not that concerned by people in the industry who seem to crave attention.,
"We are all different," she says."I personally don't care to be known. All you need is passion for what you do. If you have that passion, fame will find you but without it you won't survive in the industry very long," she adds.
"It is that passion that will feed you and help you enjoy your career and put a smile on your face," she says.
So that's why she won't stop smiling...
