In the euphoria of her steady rise in the industry, promising actress, Feyisara Hassan, who has become the toast of many, has expressed concern about what fame has deprived her of lately.
According to Hassan, stardom has deprived her of walking freely in the market to get groceries, as well as pricing items and honouring every party invitation.
The worried actress noted that traders who noticed her would challenge her to pricing goods even as a celebrity, adding, “I have been challenged on several occasions and I wonder why some people would think I can’t leave normal.
“I am still the same Feyisara Hassan that you all know. I have just learned to be more hardworking and I am not relenting on my goals. Acting is a calling and I have to enjoy my life as a human. Though I just laugh when I come across such people,” she added.
Lagos State-born actress, who is in her late 20s also revealed that she has been passionate about acting for a very long time, especially when she was a kid.
“I watched different movies growing up and this has sharpened my motive of becoming an actress. I loved the way actresses interpret and teach knowledge in movies. Hence, I became motivated to pursue acting as a profession,” she added.

However, the movie that brought the actress into the limelight was a movie entitled, “Tife Bankole”, a movie she produced in 2018, delights the challenges that come her way.
Speaking on the success of the work she noted that the movie made her in a new light, just as she expressed her delight in the courage to produce the movie and also to leverage her stardom.
