This follows an exclusive premiere event featuring the stellar cast amongst media and celebrity guests at Century Cinemax, Two Rivers Mall held on Wednesday 29th Jan 2025.

Grace Kahaki says, “Kash Money is an African tale. It’s relatable because we want to talk about the importance of family, and how families can be torn apart by money if you don’t have your paperwork in order.
