“As for the guys, I feel sad for them, their situation is worse. Apart from a few of them such as John Dumelo and Majid Michel who get paid because they have been made already, the young ones who are my age mates are suffering.

“Take a look at me for instance, I came into the movie industry as a producer with my first movie in which I acted. I spent a lot and got nothing in return, you will spend GH¢40,000 or GH¢50,000 on a production and you will get nothing in return so I stopped. In all ways, the industry is not paying,” she revealed.

Sharing her view on what can be done to make the acting business lucrative, Kisa Gbekle said, “we need to create a big online platform such as Iroko TV like they have in Nigeria. These platforms can buy movies and then producers can make money, shoot movies and pay actors. Most of the TV stations here will not buy a movie for even GH¢15,000 to show.

“Another platform we can look at is Netflix but as for them, they deal with a particular standard so if our movies can match up, why not, they will buy and we can make money,” she added.

When asked the fate of her movie career, she said she was not vibrant like she used to be. “For now, because it is not paying, I have found another love.

“However, there are people who contributed to my career such as Pascal Amanfo, Abdul Salam Mumuni etc who when they call me, I will act but it is not something I would want to do on a full-time basis,” she stated.

Talking about her newfound love, Kisa Gbekle said it was football. ”For now, I have a registered football academy where I scout for players for teams which is so far doing well. It was a love my brother had and I decided to partner him and take it to the next level,” she said.

Kisa Gbekle also used the chance to thank her fans for the support since she started her television show, Business of Entertainment. “The show has been great and I am looking at expanding it and taking it to other African countries and eventually across the world,” she added.
