You know him from his fictional character Sechaba Moloi on Isidingo but actor Motlatsi Mafatshe has come a long way but as he thrives in the industry and he is set to take on more opportunities that might leave his name in the history book, there might be a couple of things you should learn about him.

Motlatsi Mafatshe canfly a plane as he once wanted to become a pilot while he was still in highschool before pursuing a career in arts.

“I’ve always wanted to be a pilot as a kid...I was exposed to this world that I wanted to be a pilot and then I had an opportunity in High school to fly planes and then ultimately I got bored because you see when you’re flying there, you can only just fly and that's it…” he said in a recent interview on Trending SA

  • After realising at an early age that being a pilot was not his ultimate dream he studied musical direction at AFDA, and that was stemmed by his exposure to the musical industry at a young age.
  • The singer who is also a producer was the opening act at the Hansa Festival of legends for Usher back in 2012.
