Etinosa Idemudia, a Nigerian actress who also holds a background in engineering, has sparked a spirited discussion by claiming that the rigors of acting exceed those encountered in the engineering field.
In a recent episode of the Bold Enough To Say It podcast, Idemudia reflected on her experiences balancing both careers, emphasizing that the pressures and demands within the acting profession are significantly greater.
She portrayed acting as an art form that calls for immense passion and unwavering perseverance, underscoring the intense level of dedication required to thrive.
Idemudia urged her colleagues in the entertainment industry to remain steadfast and not be disheartened by critiques from professionals in other sectors.
“Having navigated both engineering and acting, I can assert-without diminishing the value of engineering-that acting requires a unique blend of commitment and stamina. It is an arduous and demanding vocation,” she stated.
“We shouldn’t let those who clock out at a set time undermine the passion and hard work we invest in our art,” she added, celebrating the relentless dedication of actors everywhere.
