Gratitude’ fuels my journey – Osas Ighodaro

….As ‘Imported Bahu’ premieres

By Benjamin Njoku

Award-winning actress Osas Ighodaro is entering a new chapter. She landed the lead role in “Imported Bahu”, a first-of-its-kind Nolly-Bollywood micro-drama.

Executive Producer Hamisha Daryani Ahuja released the official trailer this week ahead of the July 2, 2026 premiere on Lebara Play, Africa’s first telecom-owned micro-drama platform.

Osas stars alongside Bollywood actor and model Rajniesh Duggall. The series centers on love, family secrets, and a cross-cultural relationship, and she delivers a standout performance.

Reflecting on the project, Osas credits one habit for guiding her career and her time on set: gratitude.

“If there’s one habit that has shaped my life more than any other, it’s gratitude. It’s how I start my days, how I approach new chapters, and how I’ve chosen to navigate both success and setbacks. So naturally, it found its way onto the set of “Imported Bahu/” she said.

“Watching the response to the trailer over the past few days reminded me why. Because behind every view, every headline, every milestone, and every dream achieved, there are people.”

Ahuja described “Imported Bahu” as the first vertical micro-drama from her company, Forever 7 Entertainment. She said it was created for African audiences, distributed on an African telco platform, and built around how Africans actually watch content.
