Kunle Afolayan reveals his favourite actor and his view on politics

When asked in an interview who his best actor or actress was and his view on politics , here is what the Figurine crooner had to say:     Who is your favourite in all the actors and actresses in Nigeria?

Kunle: I have worked with a lot of people and am looking forward to working with more. But the thing is, when I watch people act, I see talents. But I always tell myself, I can get the best out of my cast. That has been my perception. I see all actors as one. But I tell myself, anybody I work with will be perceived differently.That an actor is good sometimes is dependent on the director. The director is responsible for getting the best out of the actor. Some actors are used to templates, they do the same thing repeatedly; again, different directors have their different styles of directing, so when you are used to working with a particular director and maybe switch to a different one, you act differently. Before Ramsey worked with me on Figurine, I had seen a lot of films he had done, but after Ramsey acted on Figurine, he was perceived different, in fact, he won best actor for it at the AMA awards. So that is what it is. But we have great talents in Nigeria, you can’t rule that out.

Are you ever going to go into politics?

Kunle: No, I want a free life. It is just going to be movie for now.
