Kunle Afolayan is making more waves in Nollywood. The actor, director, and filmmaker now has a cinema named after him. He shared a video of the beautiful place online, showing him with fashion entrepreneur Seyi Vodi and politician Jandor. The cinema is called “The Kunle Afolayan Cinema” and it has 115 seats.

In the video, Seyi Vodi, who appears to be the owner, took Kunle on a tour. Kunle prayed for the cinema’s success and gave advice on how to position the projector properly. He captioned the video, “It shall be called The Kunle Afolayan cinema For his outstanding contributions to the movie and entertainment industry. It is a 115-seater cinema.”

Kunle Afolayan is used to achieving big things. Earlier this year in April, he opened the KAP Film Village and Resort in Oyo State. The huge place covers over 60 acres of land in Igbojaiye, Itesiwaju Local Government Area. It was built as a centre for film production, cultural tourism, and training.

In 2022, Kunle was invited to join the Oscars voting academy. This happened a year after his movie was rejected. He thanked God for the new opportunity to serve in the global film community. That same year, the Nigerian government honoured him with the Officer of the Order of Nigeria (OON) award for his contributions to the country’s movie industry.

Earlier this year, Kunle spoke about how many Nigerians complain about not having jobs but still fail to work well when they finally get one. According to him, it is sad to see such incompetence in the country.

Having a cinema named after him shows how respected Kunle Afolayan is in Nollywood. Fans are proud of how he keeps growing and leaving a strong mark in the industry.
