Popular Kumawood actor, Akwasi Boateng who is famously known as Akrugu has disclosed how odd he was made to feel by friends, family and colleagues in the industry due to his looks in an interview with Ambassador Tv.
Akrugu would also reveal the reason behind his ‘Bosom Ba’ nickname stating the nature of his eyes as a factor.
Akrugu in an interview with Ambassador Tv said “ I must admit that I was ugly when I joined Kumawood Movie Industry some years ago but now I’m not ugly because I have changed totally though my eyes are still big. At first, I was shy and ashamed to mingle with others because they teased me about my condition. Even now, people in the industry speak ill about me when they meet.”
He would also go on to reveal never meeting his Father “Ambassador, since I was born till now, I don’t know my father because forego his responsibilities due to my condition but my grandmother and my mother stood by me. Those who rejected me started coming to me when I started shooting movies because of the little fame. Kumawood Movie Industry has helped me in so many ways but it pains me that I didn’t get money since I joined the industry. I know my time will surely come.”
He would conclude by stating how proud he is of his looks since they were given to him by God “When I sleep, I can’t close all my eyes because of how big it is and also I can’t interlock my fingers but I’m proud of how God created me. Ambassador, even if I get money like Dankote, Despite, Dr Kwaku Oteng and others, I will never undergo surgery to change my looks! I will use the money to feed the poor and help the needy”
