CAST AND CREW FRIENDLY' MOGHELINGZ Moghelingz said when he met the cast and crew, he did not expect that they'd be friendly and welcoming but they were and it humbled him.

These are the people I used to watch on TV and [they] are praising me so much, it was such a humbling experience for me honestly, said the publication.

It is such a big thing for me, I have always wanted to be on big screens. When I landed the role, I was like to myself OMG you are doing so good and you are just on the right track' this is one of my huge achievements, he told Drum.

Moghelingz said he wished he had received a more challenging role but he says he had fun playing himself and enjoyed the energy.

SHOOTING TIKTOK CONTENT VS UZALO' CONTENT The 20-year-old says the difference between shooting his TikTok content and being on the set of Uzalo is that it takes a lot of time for the Uzalo scenes to be shot.

I don't spend more than an hour to shoot my content so what makes it different is that on set you have to be there in the early hours at around 4/6 am and you have to know what you are shooting which can take hours just to shoot like a two minutes scene on screen, Moghelingz said.
