Why I cast my daughter, Eyiyemi Afolayan, in Anikulapo — Kunle Afolayan

(Read More Here). Veteran actor and movie producer, Kunle Afolayan, has explained why he cast his daughter, Eyiyemi Afolayan, for the role of Princess Omowunmi in his recent release, Anikulapo. 

Afolayan, who posted a short video clip of his daughter and himself on his Instagram handle on Wednesday, said the role required somebody beautiful and his daughter is definitely beautiful. He added that the youngster is also a good singer as well as a natural at acting.

Eyiyemi is Afolayan’s first child and she made her debut appearance as an actor on the set of Anikulapo.

Afolayan said, “If you want to portray the role of a princess, I think there is no giving that the person has to be beautiful and she is beautiful.

“It felt good because I did not have to pay her, even though I was paying her directly or indirectly.”

When asked about her role as Princess Omowunmi in the movie, Eyiyemi said, “Omowunmi is very foolish because Saro never proposed love to her but she already started having ideas in her head. She is beautiful no doubt, but also gullible.”

A statement by Kunle Afolayan Productions, commenting on the debut of Eyiyemi and made available to The PUNCH said, “Train up a child in the way he should go so that when he is old he won’t depart from it. It is obvious that Kunle Afolayan takes it upon himself to imbibe valuable teachings in his children. Everyone attests to how respectful they are and humble regardless of their father’s societal status.

Speaking on her role, Afolayan’s young daughter described Princess Omowunmi as beautiful yet foolish and quite gullible.

“Omowunmi is very foolish one. Because, I mean Saro never proposed love to her but she already started having ideas in her head.

“Omowunmi, she’s beautiful no doubt and she’s gullible,” Eyiyemi said.
