Actor Rotimi Salami has revealed the traumatic experience of being repeatedly rejected by movie producers due to his appearance.
In an interview with Feelrightnews TV, he said despite his passion and perseverance, he faced consistent discouragement, with producers deeming his face and slim build unsuitable for leading roles.
He said the emotional toll of the rejections was overwhelming.
“I cried when some producers said they couldn’t give me movie roles because of my face and body”, he said.
He recounted the struggles of attending auditions, only to be met with disappointment, and the frustration of being typecast due to his physical appearance.
“It was not easy at all during the time of our movie auditions because it was quite far from where I was living”, he said.
