The Seriously Single cast on romance, friendship and messy detours on the path to finding love

Channel24's Local Entertainment News Editor, Graye Morkel speaks to the funny and seriously talented lead cast of the new Netflix film Seriously Single.
 

Set in Johannesburg, the film follows Dineo (Fulu Mugovhani), who believes that every man she meets is "the one" as she navigates modern-day dating alongside her best friend, commitment-phobe Noni (Tumi Morake). 
 

When Dineo meets Lunga (Bohang Moeko) who appears to be the man of her dreams, she quickly falls head over heels in love. But heartbreak sets her on a path of self-discovery - despite several messy drunken clubbing detours along the way! 
 

At the same time, Noni discovers that it's okay to be vulnerable and opens herself up to love when former flame, Max (Yonda Thomas), persuades her to go on a date.
