Nollywood actor, Saidi Balogun has said that his children, Jamal and Khalid, will feature in his new movie.
Khalid will be making his debut in the comedy movie while Jamal already has already started in a movie titled White.
Speaking to Sunday Scoop, Saidi Balogun said, “It is their passion. My children wanted to act so I decided to give them the opportunity and they love it so much. They want to make people laugh. Khalid, the one studying Theatre Arts, said we should give it a shot. Jamal had earlier acted in the movie, White. They said if their father can do it, they can do it better. They said we should move away from the norm.”
The actor said that their relationship on set is different from what they share at home.
“They made it clear to me that these are parallel lines. They said I should leave the parental role at home and work with them as colleagues on set. They do their things their way and I do my things my own way. They also said I am already popular as Saidi Balogun and they want to make their own names. They only need me to provide them a platform so they can show the world what they have,” he said.
