Ghanaian actor and comedian Kalybos has revealed that a simple gesture of kindness towards some young fans in 2016 earned him a cheque of GH\u20b5100,000.<\/p>\n
Speaking on Joy FM\u2019s\u00a0Showbiz A-Z<\/em>\u00a0with arts and culture journalist Kwame Dadzie, Kalybos recounted how the encounter unfolded while he was stuck in traffic on the Osu road.<\/p>\n \u201cOne time I was in a heavy traffic on the Osu road and a car pulled up by my side and I could see he had gone to pick up his kids. And they saw me. So they were all happy about it. They wanted to take a picture and the father told them they were in traffic. I watched ahead of me and realised the traffic was heavy, so I got down from my car, and asked if I could sit at the back, and I sat at the back. We took pictures, the man was just shocked and was looking at me. And he took my number,\u201d he narrated.<\/p>\n Kalybos, known in real life as Richard Asante, said the man later called him and explained that he mostly spent time with his children when he visited Ghana. He added that the man shared an earlier incident at a mall where his children had been snubbed by a popular actress when they tried to take a photo with her.<\/p>\n According to Kalybos, the man was so touched by the comedian\u2019s humility that he invited him to his office for a chat. What followed was something the actor describes as the \u201cbiggest free bono money\u201d he had ever received.<\/p>\n \u201cSo he invited me to his office, I went there, we had a little chat and then he gave me an envelope,\u201d Kalybos said.<\/p>\n \u201cSomething told me that I should open it. I opened the envelope and it was a cheque. You wanna hear the amount? The biggest free bono money I have ever had in my life. It was a hundred thousand Ghana cedis,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n He added that he used the money to buy his second car.<\/p>\n Kalybos is best known for his role in the popular comedy series\u00a0Boys Kasa<\/em>, where he starred alongside actress Ahoufe Patri. Since then, he has featured in several Ghanaian films including\u00a0Kalybos in China<\/em>,\u00a0Amakye and Dede<\/em>, and\u00a0John and John<\/em>.<\/p>\n In addition to his work in film and television, he has also been involved in brand campaigns, and is regarded as one of Ghana\u2019s most recognisable comedic actors of the past decade.<\/p>\n Ghanaian actor and comedian Kalybos has revealed that a simple gesture of kindness towards some young fans in 2016 earned him a cheque of GH\u20b5100,000.
