The daughter of filmmaker Kunle Afolayan, actress Eyiyemi Afolayan, has talked about her work relationship with her father on the set of Anikulapo.
Eyiyemi who plays the character Princess Omowunmi during a recent interview stated that there was no tension working with Kunle.
“My and dad I are friends, so there was no tension. The only tension I possibly felt was I don’t want to let my dad down, there are people here, let them know that in this family, it is inborn. Aside that, we would read the script together, we would rehearse together. If I am having a cold, we would make tea. He made it really seamless and easy for me. I was comfortable on set,”
she said.
