Duma's Long Walk To Stardom

GENERATIONS – The Legacy star, Duma Mnqobi (29), has been preparing for fame since he was young. He started acting when he was in high school doing drama. He later enrolled for a Bachelor of Science degree and later music but he dropped out.

“What set me back was that I kept going in and out of depression. I had no choice but to put my studies on hold,” he shares.

“After my second year of studying for a BSc degree, I dropped out. I could no longer afford to finish some of my third-year modules. That is when I started to make my way back to performing professionally again.”

In 2004, the KwaZulu-Natal-born actor then decided to move to Johannesburg to pursue his dream of being in showbiz.
