"So, yeah, I took up the challenge and my first day on set, I saw aunty Sola Sobowale in her full element. It was my birthday and Olamide was waiting for me at a night club but I had to shoot some scenes.

"So, I saw her in her full element and I told Kemi I can't do this. She asked why I said look at this woman na, I can't do this. This woman is in another world, I don't want to mess up, I can't do this. But Kemi convinced me and said she believed I can do it and I went back home and returned to give my best like you all saw in the movie," Reminisce said.
