Nollywood actress and filmmaker Bolaji Ogunmola has publicly commended her colleague Daniel Etim-Effiong for his high level of professionalism while filming romantic and intimate scenes together.
Speaking on the Jay On-Air podcast, Bolaji addressed the frequent questions about on-screen chemistry and boundaries. She made it clear that she maintains strict professional lines despite the believable romance viewers see on screen.
“Major shout to Daniel, he’s a very disciplined person. Personally when it comes to work and I am, anybody that knows me knows I have very strict boundaries.”
Bolaji explained her approach to roles:
“When going on romantic film it’s not Daniel that I’m working with, it is the character. We are working together. I need to make it believable for the audience and I don’t want to waste my audience time or money. I want you all to be able to fully believe what I am doing.”
Her comments highlight the difference between on-screen chemistry and real-life professionalism, a topic that often generates debate in Nollywood. Bolaji’s praise for Daniel comes as both actors continue to deliver standout performances in romantic movies, earning them a strong fan following for their on-screen pairings.
