She is that star villain actress we all love to hate. Her thuggish on-screen character has made her one of Mzansi’s finest. From pulling off a Boniswa Langa character to bringing drama filled with thrills as Makhosana on Imbewu: The Seed, the actress is proving to be the goddess of soap operas.
Lusanda Mbane is a celebrated South African actress best known for her Boniswa Langa character on etvs drama series Scandal. However, the actress hogged all sorts of headlines when she bowed out of the drama series.
Her exit marked the mass exodus of a star-studded cast. In the backdrop of her exit, the showrunners revealed that her exit was part of the script as the show was phasing out a star-studded cast.
However, in the wake of her exit, she was spotted at Imbewu: The Seed set. A few months later, she was cast as Makhosana. We can all agree that her acting flair has wowed Mzansi of late. She stars alongside some of the big names for small screens, the likes of Leleti Khumalo, who stars as MaZulu.

In Imbewu, she plays a more similar character to that of Scandal. Despite debuting a few weeks ago, she has fast become the face of the show, and she has been keeping us on the edge of our seats. She knows well how to play her cards and clean up the mess. She pulled a shocker when she took Menzi hostage and buried him alive. What she has the guts, who does that after all?
However, apart from acting, the actress also doubles as an entrepreneur, radio personality and brand ambassador. Like those before her, she started with theatre arts before her fame. The actress thrust into the limelight came in the backdrop of a Generations gig.
The bubbly actress was cast as Naomi Malotana. From there, she has been winning big. She has starred in more than eleven drama series. However, the actress has no acting educational background but holds a B.Com in Marketing with UNISA.
Mzansi wondered how old the actress could be with an illustrious career spanning decades. The 42-year old actress was born on 16 May 1979 in South Africa. Well, it seems as if she looks younger than her actual age. After all, who knew, the actress was that older, though.
