NOMVELO MAKHANYA: NEXT CAREER MOVE Scandal! fans have been wondering what actress Nomvelo Makhanya next project will be after she exited the soapie as Lindiwe Ngema-Maseko earlier this month.

Iharare reports that Makhanya revealed in a question-and-answer session on Instagram that she will not be joining another soapie after playing Lindiwe for a decade.
The actress added that she wants to explore other things when fans of the e.tv soapie enquired on social media. .
I'm definitely not looking to be going into any soapie work anytime soon I want to explore other things & being on a soapie won't give me the time to do what I want.
Makhanya added that if she does however join another soapie, she'll do it for a maximum period of one year.

But also, if it's part of God's plan for me to be on a soapie, I'd probably stay for 6-12 months max.
The publication adds that she's been spending time in the studio, which suggests that the 26-year-old actress may be pursuing a career as a musician.
Makhanya recently received a SAFTA for Best Supporting Actress as Ntombi in a Netflix feature film I Am All Girls.
She tells Daily Sun that it still feels surreal and exciting that she won the award.
It is still very surreal. But it was a very exciting time and a very validating moment.
