DUMISANI DLAMINI: LATEST ROLE The renowned South African actor Dumisani Dlamini tells TshisaLIVE that he's happy to join Black Brain Pictures' Isitha: The Enemy.

I'll be playing an interesting character, Nsimbi. He is a rich man from KZN and will be facing off with Rebecca Mabuza in the story. Nsimbi will be shaking things up in Isitha. The viewers will grow to love me, says the actor.

He adds that Mandla N from Black Brain contacted him and explained the story idea of the role he will be playing. Dlamini understood what he was talking about, and he's already I'm killing it on set.

Dlamini also reveals that he's currently working on an Afro-pop and kwaito single

The legendary actor is famously known for his role as Crocodile in Sarafina alongside Hollywood actor Whoopi Goldberg.
