Akan language movies are the preferred choice for many Ghanaians today, especially after Kumawood saved the Ghana movie industry few years ago when the competition from neighboring Nigeria was very intense.

Van Victor remarked few months ago that, “No matter what anybody says, Kumawood is a blessing to the Ghana film industry.”

Beverly Afaglo also opened up about how it feels like being in a union where both spouses are all public figures, insisting that it creates more understanding in the relationship.

“There is more understanding in it. It might not be too comfortable sometimes because both of you can’t do certain things. If I wasn’t a public figure and he was, probably I would be able to go to the market and shop for all of us and we would be okay and live our lives normal. It is normal in terms of building a family but sometimes out there; the way people see us…our lives are out there even if we don’t put it out there.”

Despite winning several awards in the past, and featuring in many hit movies, the beautiful actress maintained that she is not someone overly excited about stardom.

“I wouldn’t say I enjoy the attention because I am not the type that I step out my home or car hoping that somebody recognizes me or hoping that somebody will say okay that is a celebrity out there. It is my image I am protecting not celebrity status. It is my person that am protecting, that this Beverly; “I don’t wanna do this, I don’t want to cross this line, not a celebrity status.”

Beverly Afaglo is the wife of popular Ghanaian musician, Eugene Baah popularly known as Choirmaster.
