Former Big Brother Africa housemate Maneta Mazanhi is set to feature in an upcoming South African television series “Jali n Jango” that will air on DSTV’s Mzansi Magic.
The law student plays a supporting role in the production that explores the life of a notorious playboy.

While it is not her first attempt at acting, Maneta said she was excited about following one of her passions.

“Acting is a natural talent of mine that people close to me discovered. The first time I tried it out I realised that I was actually good at it. I however took a few classes in Johannesburg to perfect my skills,” she said about her acting venture.

Maneta is also fresh from shooting a movie, “Dollar Girls” where she plays the leading role.

“We finished shooting “Dollar Girls Thriller” last week and it is available on Youtube. It is an interesting movie that is centred on three friends who meet the wrong men,” she said.

Although she said her education is on top of her priorities she hinted that she plans to pursue more acting roles when she completes her remaining two semesters.

“My contacts have played a role as I have not gone for any auditions for all the parts that I played. I have featured in Buff (Buffalo Soldier)’s music video. He is my friend and had a Shona song that he wanted to promote back home,” she said.

In an apparent hint to a single status, Maneta said she was at a place in her life where she was living without pressure from any external forces and is free to follow whatever fate has in store.

It was in that spirit that she said she was following her dreams to wherever they took her; in Zimbabwe or any other country.
