While the original poster praised the scene as one of Nollywood’s most convincing kissing moments, the comment section took the discussion in a different direction.
Some netizens argued that Etim Effiong appears too frequently in passionate romantic roles, despite being married.
One user wrote:
“This guy is becoming annoying at this point. Why is a married man always in these romantic movies?”
Another commenter pushed even further, suggesting that Etim’s wife has “valid reasons to crash out,” referencing how uncomfortable such roles might make a spouse feel.
