Abubakar Haruna Gambo: I chose to be a producer because I am shy
Why did you opt for producing and directing instead of acting?
Sarki: I chose to be man-behind-the-camera because I am shy and don’t like the spotlight. This was why I started with production. I produced blockbuster films like ‘Gwaska’, ‘Nas’, ‘Bayan Rai’ and many more, then I decided to shift my attention to directing. But I didn’t just start directing on my own. I worked with good directors in Kannywood like Falalu Dorayi, Adam A. Zango and Ali Nuhu. They taught me the basics in directing, to be creative, innovative and have eyes and ears for the camera. I did that and now I am reaping the advice they gave me.
