Dlamini said he is heartbroken over his untimely passing. “Mcendisi was an actor, director, and writer, someone who is hard to find in this industry. I am very sad and heartbroken you know, he has a bright future ahead. He was supposed to start shooting Uzalo on Monday and also we were supposed to have a European Tour of The Head and The Load by William Kentridge in November this year. He was going to play the first lead. I don’t know what to say but I’m very heartbroken. I’ve learned a lot from him. He always said that without formal education you can make it if you work hard.”   

He said he will miss his friend. Mthokozisi Shabangu, a family member of the actor, told the publication that the actor had chest pains, not stomach pains. “No, he had chest pains, not stomach pains before he died.”
