Actor Yul Edochie has urged colleagues to always deliver excellence regardless of pay. In an Instagram post, he said even if an actor accepts ₦10k for a role, they must give a $100m performance.

He warned that giving a “₦10k performance” leads to failure, stressing that true greatness in acting comes from giving one’s best, even when working for free.

“As an actor,
If you accept a 10k fee for a movie role, you must give a 100 million dollar performance.
Don’t give 10k performance because you were paid 10k.
That’s your road to failure.
Even if you accept to do the job for free,
You must give a 100-million-dollar performance.
That’s what the acting profession demands.
That’s your road to greatness”.
