South African actress Nirvana Nokwe-Mseleku is speaking out about being sexually violated by her co-star, actor Bonko Khoza on while filming Netflix show “Red Ink”.
The former “Outlaws” actress has publicly accused Khoza of sexual violation which happened on the set of “Red Ink” in September 2023. Nirvana alleges that while shooting their scene, Khoza allegedly got “carried away” resulting in the sexual violation act.
This is not the first time Nirvana spoke out about her painful experience. In a series of posts on her Instagram account, she shared screenshots of emails that were sent by her management to the producer of Bomb Productions, Desiree Markgraff, expressing concerns over how the matter was handled.
Nirvana alleges that clear boundaries had been communicated multiple time before filming began, however her co-star did not follow through. She further claims that the director allegedly witness Khoza admitting wrongdoing after the incident.
Furthermore, Nirvana questioned why the close up shots of the scene where the incident happened had been removed from the final edit, which to her seemed to have suggested concern from the production.
Following the incident, Nirvana claims that production executives and directors assured her that Khoza’s “Unacceptable” and “unprofessional” conduct would be dealt with.
After all this, Nirvana says the experience has permanently changed the way she viewed the entertainment industry and has decided to quit acting. She says she may consider alternative ways to showcase her talent but it won’t be on traditional media again.
