Every bit of the acting journey had been challenging, most especially what it
takes to get the roles, Also I have lost so many roles because of my
babyface... I have featured in lots of prominent TV series, Sit-coms and movies

on its way. Lol

interpretation meets a 99% for me.. An actor with a difference... watching him
over the years had motivated my craft so much that even if I am to play just a
scene on any set.. I interpret it like I am a lead actor who can't give room
for any flaws.

Tell us about your CULTURE and how it
has help you overcome difficult life challenges

| (Rotimi Salami) |
I am a proud Yoruba man with the best culture...
One general fact about we Yoruba's is we are very respectful and that has taken
me places.. a very good example was when I wanted a partnership deal to air my AMVCA
2014 award nominated sit-com titled KUTI'S CAREER PALACE... That deal came
through twice on different occasions because of my respectful culture.
Good cultural traits have a way of opening some locked doors.. you will mostly
get it before any other person does.
How can we ensure the sustainability of
the African culture and what role will you play
More awareness about our best cultural heritages and I have started that in my TV
sit-com and upcoming seminars and workshops in my community.
What do you want to say to those who
have supported and encouraged you in rough and trying times.
I feel blessed to have them all, Without everyone of them, I wouldn't be
where I am now, and I need everyone's support and prayers now more than ever. I
pray that God blesses all of us richly.
THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING AN INTERVIEW WITH ME.
Cheers!
