Ruth Kadiri Calls Out Filmmakers Who Pressure Actors to Produce 1 Million Views on YouTube
- Filmmaker Ruth Kadiri has expressed displeasure at the demands by some producers on actors
- She said some producers' decision to request one million views on the first day of uploading their films on YouTube was undue pressure
- Ruth also encouraged the actors and shared how some producers have failed in their jobs by making such demands
Nollywood actress and filmmaker Ruth Kadiri has stated that any producer who asks for one million views on the first day of uploading a movie on YouTube has failed.
She asked actors to take such pressure off their shoulders, noting that a good production requires more than an actor's face to sell a movie.
The movie star added that one million views was not the standard for success or failure. She noted that there were so many things some people did not know about YouTube.
The mother-of-two encouraged the actors not to allow the ignorance of some producers to rob them of their joy.
According to Ruth Kadiri, the producers who have never invested in anyone are the ones who say a lot of nonsense about others.
