“Honestly, it’s amazing. These are people we look up to and aspire to emulate in their craft. It’s such a beautiful opportunity because they really guide you on this project and are incredibly supportive,” she said.

The actress also shares that working alongside them is reassuring in a sense and makes her realise that the hours she puts in behind the scenes are starting to show in the work.

"It’s encouraging and motivating," adds Masango.

Social media commentator BlackMluJa recently confirmed Masango's new role on his X account.

"Youngings stars reunite in a new telenovela by Tshedza Pictures, The Four of Us.

Kealeboga Masango and Lebohang Lephatsoane will be reuniting as family members this time. Lebohang Lephatsoane plays the character of Malusi Bobbi’s bold, stylish, and charismatic son, who brings humour, confidence, and flair to the Dhlomo family. Kealeboga is the youngest Dhlomo sibling, a free spirit chasing freedom, pleasure, and new experiences while carrying the weight of unresolved grief," he wrote.

@ThatXolaniGuy said:

"I don’t like the sound design and music scoring on The Four Of Us. I was not expecting Lindiwe Dikana to play Busani. I don’t like the fact that Bab’Ncane’s daughter calls him ntwana. Maybe I’m strict, but we’ll see."

@SisMbali__ react:

"The cast, as individuals, are amazing actors and have done great work. But for me, they are not gelling, and I don’t buy that they are family, especially the other yaBabomnance. I’m still giving it a chance because it’s early days, but kukhona into eOff."

@AnitaNxuseka commented:

"Another thing that upset me was Busani's entrance from Paris. At the same time, they were arguing about where they were going to hold the funeral. Church or dealership. First of all, it's the night before the funeral. Secondly, you come in from a trip."
