The Queen’s Shaka’s And Isibaya’s Qaphela Are ‘Real’ Life Brothers
Abdul Khoza, who plays Qhaphela on Isibaya, and SK Khoza who plays Shaka Khoza on The Queen are real life brothers.
Sthembiso known as SK was the firstborn of the brothers, he excelled in cricket, rugby, soccer, and karate which he practices to this day.
SK won his black belt before he was a teenager, all signs pointed to this passion becoming a career and he studied sports management.
His career path took a different turn when he arrived early one day for an interview on a talk show and was mistaken for an actor auditioning for a TV role, and he nailed it! Today he’s an accomplished actor and was recently a finalist for COSMO’s Sexiest Man 2019.
On the other hand, Abdul Khoza got his first big break on Intersexions and is today known for his award-winning role as Qaphela on Isibaya.
Qaphela is a hot-headed trained killing machine on Isibaya who has since turned a new leaf and Abdul plays both sides of Qaphela convincingly.
Abdul won a SAFTA (South African Film and Television Awards) Golden Horn for his role as Qaphela on Isibaya.
Abdul has made fitness a routine he practices at home along with his meat-free diet which is another way he stays healthy.
According to a few interviews, the brothers are as different as night from the day as SK still makes headlines for the wrong reasons while Abdul is the more quiet and family-orientated one.
