“I've done different shows, but I've never had a character like Nkosana’s and it’s the first time I'm playing a lead.'

The books follow the lives of the eight Zulu brothers, a formidable crime family, through the eyes of the wives they marry. Its Mondli's first time having to tap into the dark side of a character for a long time.He said there are similarities with Nkosana’s role because he is the eldest in his family.

“I think that part for me is not hard I just needed to understand who he is and then just get into him as a character then I was fine after that. It’s just that I’m enjoying to play him because I’ve done other shows but this one I think is more challenging because of the character itself and the physical part of it.

“Nkosana is a very angry somebody, he’s a beast, he’s a monster but he leads from behind up until he loses his son. His brother is then shot, then that monster comes back. He's a killer and he is ruthless, that’s the part that is challenging for me because I need to go there and so its hard going in there because then I have to come back. Each and every day I have to come back and get out of character and leave Nkosana on the set otherwise you’ll hear bad stories.
