Shakeela Kingzley Biography
Shakeela Kingzley (born Shakeela Bhyat; March 31,1989) is a South African filmmaker, artist and writer. She graduated from AFDA Cape Town with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Motion Picture Medium before freelancing on numerous television commercials, Hollywood and International films.

So I struggle each day to conform
