Nollywood actress, filmmaker and entrepreneur, Bose Alao, has recounted the many challenges in her career.

In an interview with Sunday Scoop, Alao stated that there was a time she used to write to producers and marketers to seek for jobs.

She said; “When I faced one of the greatest challenges of my life, I did not give up. There were times I did not get acting jobs, and I had to write to producers personally.

“I sent messages to movie marketers to bid for roles. I got involved in other businesses in addition to my acting career, rather than quit.

Recalling another challenging period in her career, Alao stated that she had forgiven the editor who lost her movie (master) file worth N12m in 2016.

“First, I became very irrational. I blamed and hated myself. Luckily, the company I partnered with stood by me. They actually wanted a reshoot but one of the actors proved very difficult.

“Also, I forgave the editor and I think that helped me,” she said.

Speaking on her biggest challenge being an actress, she said; “I think it is not so easy shuffling acting with the home front.

“Another challenge is that some people behind the camera sometimes reveal one’s fees to producers. It can be painful, especially if the person does not pay one’s bills.”
