Nollywood actor and singer Gabriel Afolayan has spoken about the relationship between him and his brother, filmmaker Kunle Afolayan.
While speaking with Channels Television, Gabriel spoke about his childhood, revealing that their shared experiences created a connection between them that now affects their collaboration.
“I can remember when we were much younger; he’s going to put me on his shoulder, we go and watch films together. So we’ve already had that filmic bond while growing up. And also, it translated pretty much well. We love quality stuff, fundamentally. And we love ourselves, even though when we argue, it’s for a certain cause that’s going to set things right. So it was pretty easy to work with him. I think we got that niche from our dad, always wanting to do things right,” he stated.
Gabriel spoke about his brother’s project, Anikulapo, stating that his brother invested in professionals while shooting the sequel.
“For a big-scale project like Anikulapo, you can’t be any better. The project itself calls for exactly what it gets at the moment, building set from scratch, having professional cinematographers, good technical people on grading, costumes, art design… everything has to be grand,” he added.
