Mutodi Neshehe is taking a break from acting

Seasoned actor Mutodi Neshehe is taking a break from acting to focus on working behind-the-scenes, according to a report on DRUM.

Speaking to the local publication, Mutodi revealed that he's currently working on proposals for new TV shows.

"I’m putting together a couple of television programmes and pitching them to different broadcasters to see who’s interested," he said, before admitting that he still loves acting in soapies.

 "I love working for soapies, because it proves to me that we have the best talent in Mzansi."

Late last year, Mutodi was released from his contract with Generations: The Legacy, after only four months with the soapie.

The reason given for his departure was " as result of the direction the story is taking," according to a report on City Press.
