Veteran Nollywood actor Hanks Anuku has finally broken his silence on his video that went viral.
All Naija Trends recalls that videos of the actor looking unkempt went viral months ago, making many people speculate that he is mentally unstable and was on drugs.
In a new interview, the actor said he was videoed unaware while trying to get into character for a madman role he was going to play in a movie.
He said he visited the environment to see how he would play the role.
Assuring Nigerians that the rumours about him are not true, he stated that he is neither a mad man nor on drugs.
