Nigerian actress and filmmaker Bolaji Ogunmola has spoken glowingly about her colleague Daniel Etim-Effiong, commending him for his exceptional discipline and professionalism when working on romantic film projects.
During an appearance on the Jay On-Air podcast, Ogunmola revealed that despite the convincing on-screen chemistry the two share, both actors are deliberate about maintaining firm personal boundaries on set.
She explained that her approach to romantic roles involves mentally separating the real person she is working with from the character being portrayed, a technique she relies on to deliver performances that feel authentic and believable to audiences.
She described Daniel Etim-Effiong as a highly disciplined individual and noted that she herself is known among her peers for keeping strict professional boundaries in her work.
According to her, when stepping into a romantic scene, she is not engaging with Daniel the person but rather with the fictional character he embodies, and that distinction is what allows them to collaborate effectively and produce compelling performances.
Ogunmola emphasised that her primary motivation is always to give audiences value for their time and money, ensuring that every performance she delivers is convincing enough to draw viewers fully into the story.
She stressed that maintaining this level of intentionality and professionalism is key to producing quality work that keeps audiences genuinely engaged and satisfied.
