Actress and businesswoman Dineo Langa weighed in on the scenes, saying: “This was painful to watch. Kudos to you, for such a heart wrenching performance.”
Winnie Ntshaba thanked the company behind the television series for the narrative and awareness: “I would tell someone immediately, this reality of women hurts. It has to stop.
Replying to a comment, Lunathi said: Kuzolunga! We need to speak out to heal! Grateful for these stories because they help us deal with our own lives”.
