Temba Bavuma: We just didn’t pitch up today
Proteas captain Temba Bavuma has admitted that his team was outplayed by the Australians in the third and final One Day International, as they went down by a massive 276 runs.
Actress Natasha Thahane is part of the cast of Netflix’s new show, Marked.
She plays the role of Nelisa Kunene, who is the daughter of Thandeka Kunene (Linda Sokhula) and Zachariah Kunene (Desmond Dube).
The actress was raised by her grandmother, and unlike the roles she’s played in her acting career, she didn’t live with her parents.
“All my characters have actually had a mother and a father and I was raised by my grandmother,” Thahane tells The Citizen.
“My mom and dad are very much present, I love them, but I’m a granny’s child. I was raised by my grandmother.”
Marked is a six-part crime drama which follows cash-in-transit security guard Babalwa (Lerato Mvelase), a woman cornered by circumstance, fighting to protect what matters most.
As the pressure mounts, the line between what’s right and what’s necessary begins to blur.
God healing Natasha Thahane
In one of her most popular roles, Thahane portrayed Amogelang ‘Amo’ Maake on Mzansi Magic’s The Queen. There, she was the daughter of Jeremiah ‘Jerry’ Maake, played by the late Shona Ferguson.
On Netflix’s Blood & Water, Thahane played the role of Wendy Dlamini, the daughter of a member of parliament.
“All my characters have had a mother and a father in the house,” the actress says.
Thahane says playing those roles in which the character resides with both parents has somewhat healed her and made up for the lack of experiencing living with both her parents.
“So they’re [child and parents] having a dynamic and having that conversation, I realised that at their age I didn’t have that because I stayed with my grandmother and God has been healing me through those characters.”
