At her Creative Blueprint event, Funke Akindele offered a rare, vulnerable insight into her journey in Nollywood—revealing that despite her massive success, there’s one actress who still puts her on edge: Bimbo Akintola.
According to Akindele, acting alongside Akintola is an experience that forces her to re-evaluate herself completely—even now. She described how deeply she studied Akintola’s craft, from her facial expressions to her voice modulation and emotional depth, in a bid to grow and stay sharp.
Her words highlight something powerful: even the biggest stars are still students of the game.
This moment also underscores Nollywood’s rich depth of talent, where legends continue to inspire—even intimidate—the new guard. Akindele’s honesty is a reminder that excellence often comes with humility and a constant hunger to improve.
