Yesterday, the veteran actress took to her Instagram page to share how she became a part of the movie and how director, Kemi Adetiba was also instrumental to it. Enjoy her endearing message to Kemi Adetiba below.

Kemi, Oh Kemi, so much to say but where do I start? Most people don’t know the story leading up to this moment right here. But I’ll share.
I first heard of the #weddingpartymovie in early April but for some reason, I overlooked it. My daughter, who manages me, called me from the UK and filled me in on what the movie was about but I was caught between 2 jobs.
With much persuasion, my other daughters, instructing me not to miss the audition.  Eventually, I managed to make the audition on the last day – with my daughter, @themiimiisworld, on my tail; calling me every 5 minutes

To tell you how last minute it was, I had forgotten my reading glasses so when it came to the lines, I could only see certain words. But in true Sola fashion, I decided to freestyle.

During the audition, I just remember seeing a lady, full of excitement, joy and eagerness. It was like she couldn’t wait for the auditions to be over. She had already made her mind up at that spot, making me the Tinuade Coker that you all love today. That lady was the beautiful @kemiadetiba.
