Nollywood actress, Grace Amah, is not a new face in the Nigerian movie industry. She has been in the business of interpreting scripts for over a decade and from what we gathered, she is not showing any sign of quitting the industry anytime soon.
In a recent interview, the actress, recalling her journey into the make-believe world, stated that she went into acting while still awaiting her JAMB result after she had walked into a popular celebrity hangout and met a movie star.
Grace said her parents were first not happy with her decision to give Nollywood a trial because they wanted her to be a medical doctor or a lawyer.
She explained that her love for acting affected her studies in school, when she had tried to study law at the university.
“My parents were not favourably disposed to my going into the acting world. They preferred I was a medical doctor or lawyer and I made attempts to read law but the urge for the acting profession did not allow me concentrate.

It is only natural that parents would react negatively to things they do not understand but when they see the positive dividends of such work, they will appreciate and give their support,” she told Daily Times.
