By Gbolahan Adeyemi


One of the stars of the widely watched TV sitcom Tinsel, Funmi Holder, comes to town
with her movie ‘The Grudge’.

The actress, writer and producer has
been busy working on the movie for
some time now and is set to hit cinemas
across the country.

The Graduate of Microbiology from the
University of Ibadan who played the
role of Amaka Ade Williams in Tinsel has
released this intriguing movie with a
never-seen-before cast as it would be
her first work as a Producer.

The movie was directed by Yemi Morafa.
The Grudge features Nollywood Great
Richard Mofe-Damijo (RMD), another
Tinsel Star Iretiola Doyle, Yoruba Star
Actor Odunlade Adekola, Jaiye Kuti,
Funmi Holder herself and introducing
Ijeoma Aniebo.

The movie will be premiered on Sunday
October 23, 2016 at the Radisson Blu,
Lagos after which it will be in cinemas
across the country.

The Grudge tells the story of the lives of
two lovelorn spouses from separate
marriages and a lonely widow intersect
as they struggle to deal with a grudge
that has festered for so long.

The movie brings together icons in the
English and Yoruba spheres of
Nollywood. It would be the first time
these stars would work together on the
set of the same movie.

For RMD, he is one of the best things to
ever happen to acting in Nigeria. He is
highly regarded among movie buffs in
the country and outside.

For Odunlade Adekola, it’s another
opportunity for the star actor to cement
his place in the industry. He is
unarguably the best Yoruba actor in the
last couple of years as he is known for
his versatility and dexterity, traits which
has endeared him to the hearts of many
movie enthusiasts in and out of the
country.

The stars of Tinsel Funmi Holder and
Iretiola Doyle need no introduction.

There is hardly any episode of the
popular sitcom they don’t feature and
they are always at each other’s throats in
most of the episodes.
