Actress Gifty Adrah on acting journey and paying for roles

“The journey has not been easy. You know nothing good comes easily. I sometimes go for auditions and you will have to pay them before you get a role and sometimes you will be asked to sleep with them, which never happened.

But so far, I can say the journey has been great, it has challenged me in so many ways.

From the beginning, it wasn’t financially rewarding because I had to be paying for someone to cast me but as it is now I don’t need to pay but rather I get paid for it.

But when we talk about the passion the money matters don’t really count because my talent will pave way for me and I’m happy I get to eat from my talent.”
