Comedian Mr Macaroni has joined filmmaker Kunle Afolayan, actors Lateef Adedimeji and Omowunmi Dada and others in filmmaker Tunde Kelani’s Ayinla movie which is based on late apala music maestro Ayinla Omowura.

Kunle, who is playing the role of Olabisi Ajala alias, ‘Ajala travel all over the world’, shared pictures from the set on social media on Wednesday.

He said it was his second day on set in Abeokuta.

“It’s day 2 for me in Abeokuta on the set of ‘AYINLA’ a Tunde Kelani film @tkelani . I’m playing ‘Olabisi Ajala popular known as ‘Ajala travel all over the world’,” he wrote on Instagram.

“Working alongside talents like @adelaoye @dadaomowunmi @mrmacaronii Lateef Adedimeji Wish us well,” he added.

Born Debo Adebayo, Mr Macaroni shared videos of himself and Lateef on Instastories on Wednesday.

The movie by Kelani is coming 40 years after Ayinla was fatally stabbed with a glass cup during a pub brawl on May 6, 1980, in Ago Ika, Abeokuta.

Kelani seeks to answer the questions “Who is Ayinla Omowura? Why is his music still relevant after his tragic death 40 years ago? And what is the root that nurtured his craft and music?”

Mr Macaroni has appeared on several soap operas including face2face, Jenifa’s Diary, House 31, Royal Outlaw and SuperStory.

He is known for his skit videos on social media.
