Even though his role in Muvhango is the most famous, it’s not his first role acting in a drama serial. In 2015 Tebatso was cast as Biza in the only season of Mzansi Magic Ya Lla. This was when he was still studying at the Tshwane University of Technology for a degree in drama. Two years later, he made tongues wag with his role in the movie Matwetwe as Hustler Papi that show producers and fans started to take note of his talent.
Before joining Muvhango as an actor, he was a third assistant director and worked with Word of Mouth for years before he was offered the role of Kgosi on the show. His character is that of KK’s son, who only craved his father’s acceptance and love but was betrayed several times. In turn, he made his own mistakes and also caused a drift in their father-son relationship. Before KK left on his missionary work, he transferred a lot of money to his son, and Kgosi is a millionaire even though he only told Vhutshilo.
