Rukky Sanda: We live fake lives for the purpose of publicity

Rukky Sanda has risen to become one of the hottest in the Nollywood Film industry, and was reported to have undergone plastic surgery on her face which raised eyebrows regarding the extent to which celebrities were willing to go in keeping upp with their “LOOKS”. But in a rare admission of the pressure that comes with all the hype, Rukky pointed out the fake lives they continue to live in as was also highlighted with by Stella Damasus:

Sometimes ago, Stella Damasus wrote about how Nigerian celebs live a fake life just to impress on red carpet, do you think it was called for?

Well, I don’t think it should be mainly about actors or actresses, I think it is about people that are not generally contented.

Even during movie premieres?

I am sure she has her own opinion. But I think everything people do is to make publicity of their movies. It is a new thing in Nollywood. I am sure she doesn’t mean it in that context.

Did you read it the article?

No, but if she says this to me, I would understand. Then I would know it is coming from her, but you can’t really believe everything you read. So, I wouldn’t judge her from what I read but what she says to me.

What are really up to now?

I am actually trying to make my new movie, which stars some good actresses in it, out for my fans to see.

Did you get into movie production because your colleague delved into it?

I have been in to movie production before most people started it. I think I am one of the first actresses that went into movie production. I produced my first movie a year after joining Nollywood in 2008. I have always been a movie producer-actress. I am not doing it because everyone is doing it. It is something I have always done.
