Afrobeats singer, Ruger has recalled how he missed an opportunity to feature in one of Nollywood actress and producer, Funke Akindele’s blockbusters a few years ago, describing it as one of his biggest missed opportunities.

Speaking in an interview with VJ Adams, Ruger explained that he noticed that the actress vibes to his songs a lot and wanted to message her on social media to appreciate her but found out that she had previously messaged him asking if he was interesting in featuring in one of her movies but he didn’t see the message until it was too late.

The singer said he was so sad after he saw the message, stressing that it still hurts him till date.

“I am interested in acting and wouldn’t mind going into the movie industry. I once missed a DM from Funke Akindele for a movie role. I didn’t even see it on time. That one still pains me,” he said.

“However, I think acting would be difficult for me because I don’t like shooting. But I would get into character still. If my character is interesting, yeah,” he added.
