Brothers On And Off Screen

The're keeping TV fans glued to their screens every Sunday as their sibling rivalry heats up. But offscreen, Mzansi Magic’s Ifalakhe actors Mxolisi Zuma (35) and Chris Radebe (36) get on very well.

The two bonded over music from the second day of shooting, they tell us.

“I listen to a lot of movie music, the kind that plays when something dramatic is about to happen in a scene,” Chris says. “Think of music from Pirates of the Caribbean.”
