NIRVANA NOKWE MSELEKU: I LOVE HOW INNOCENT SHE IS' Speaking to Sunday World, the newcomer Nirvana Nokwe-Mseleku reveals what attracted her to the Outlaws character Sihle Biyela.
Nokwe-Mseleku tells the publication that she was attracted to the role when she first read the script as Sihle represents a well-rounded view of what it means to be a Zulu girl.
--
I love how innocent she is, and how the level of her light is also indicative of the level of her darkness.
She adds that Sihle is smart, sensual, kind, and respectful, but also a skilled woman who will take desperate measures in desperate times.
The actress also reveals that she relates to Sihle because they are so alike: Sometimes I go to great lengths, almost to my own detriment. I could see that in her too.
Her character will also do anything for genuine love and she's an intuitive woman and thinks people can manipulate that side of her.
