Nollywood star actress and producer, Dr. Jaiye Kuti is putting finishing touches to her forthcoming film, ‘Blacksmith’ scheduled for premiere on April 19, 2024.
Part of the preparation being put in place towards the success of the premiere is a 150-person dance carnival.
The dance carnival, which took place at Yaba, Lagos, saw most of the cast of the movie present.
Speaking about the project, Kuti said the movie, which would be in cinemas in Nigeria and across the globe on April 19, would rank among her best.
“Alagbede (Blacksmith) is not just an ordinary project; it is a big project, and when you have a big project of this magnitude, you don’t need to keep quiet on it. We organised this dance carnival to make people aware and ready for the premiere.
“I am not the only producer of this project. I am the first producer, and the second producer is Leye Fabusoro, a fantastic producer. I also have Motunrayo Adeoye, a co-producer; she is also the CEO of Soap Connect Strong and beautiful; she is based in the UK. She is not here today because she still needs to be on the premiere day.”
‘Blacksmith’ features Baba Wande, Londoner, Jide Kosoko, Elesho, Ibikunle Taiwo, Faithia Balogun, Femi Adebayo. Gabriel Afolayan, Kehinde Bankole, Adebowale, Mr Macaroni, Bimbo Oshin, Atoribwu, Jigan Ayoka, Ebun Oloyede and Jaiye Kuti.
