I think it's safe to say that every South African tribe feels a sense of pride with this production. The people are finally retelling their own history. "Until the lion learns how to write every story will glorify the hunter"
The authenticity is key here. Not told on a bias perspective but what was really happening back then. It's really emotional and I am glad we are told again of the beautiful history of our Zulu culture. Thank ya'll folks for the reaction🤝🏿❤.
Fun facts: 1. The producing company spent a lot of money on this series, it is the most expensive production they have ever done. The company apparently had to delay some of their other productions to spend as much money as possible on this one. 2. It is ranked as the most watched series in five African countries being: South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zambia and Kenya.
Am Xhosa and i love Zulu Culture so much and how they embrace it. What i love most is that the Production team is showing all the history of every single kingdom/clan in the Zulu Nation leading to Shaka's reign and not just Shaka Zulu's history, while the first movies (part 1, 2, and 3) in the 80's only focused most on Shaka's part and would only show snipets of other kindgoms when there was war, and were told frm an outsiders perspective.❤❤❤
Ohh I can't tell you how special this is as a Zulu. The first production of Shaka was told in the perspective of the white settlers interaction with him. This time they are actually telling his history from the perspective of Zulu historians, it such a beautiful thing because alot of our culture actually being shown in it's full context❤️❤️❤️
We need to be proud about what we produce, others claims to be the biggest movie producers in the entire Africa. It's ok when they say but being it but it's being cocky when South African say it. Just asking😅
Just for the point of correction fellas. This production is about Zulu people prior Shaka's birth. It shows how Shaka came about n how life was before him. Then the old shaka zulu production we grew up watching deals specifically with shaka' reign as king n his growth as a boy to man. So it's not a remake guys,it's different timelines of life of Zulus.
Yes they’re Actually a lot of tribes come from what we know now as KZN The Ndebeles in Zimbabwe, Ngonis in Zambia, Malawi and Tanzania they all are descendants of KZN The Zulu’s have a fascinating History I wish we would know more
It's too dope thank you guys. Hey fam. You guys are Zulus I swear😍 I'm giving you my mom's surname. From 2day you guys are the Magwaza right. Much love. Love you too much mcawwww
Also the states had some of the greatest warriors Kings like the great : Malcolm X Kinta kunte Martin Luther king Mutulu Shakur 2pac Fredd Hampton And etc. That's why we respect the American African culture ❤
You need someone with a Premium DSTV package that will link you to they internet streaming category. Then get yourself a VPN and set it to South Africa. There is no added costs for someone to link you to they DSTV , only thing you might pay for is a vpn
@@Kim-dk9nk you mean the fake one, your story is not true when told by someone who thought should make up your history that is not true, be stuck what with the fiction while we learn about our true people
There are no tribes in South Africa but clans instead. We all fall under the Nguni tribe( Nguni tribe is Made up of clans i.e Xhosa, Zulu, Venda, Ndebele, Swati ect)

I'm a white south African female and I loved watching Shaka he really was a larger than life warrior king almost like a Devine 'phenomena' .🤩
Ps. I watched it as a kid

We may not be the biggest movie producers in Africa but we are surely the biggest quality movie producer in Africa😂 just saying south africa
Don't get cocky bro be humble

Actually a lot of tribes come from what we know now as KZN
The Ndebeles in Zimbabwe, Ngonis in Zambia, Malawi and Tanzania they all are descendants of KZN

Such movies are made so that we do not forget and know where we come from
We blessed at the house of egazini on what we saw on social media .and also be proud of surname Zulu 🎉
I've seen some episodes people posted on Facebook
The main character playing Shaka is not Zulu he’s Tswana but we love him
He's Pedi but is from eMpangeni,KwaZulu-Natal 🇿🇦.
@@sthe_zar6341 But he said it himself ke motswana. Tsipa is a tswana surname even Lemogang is a tswana name.
@@sthe_zar6341he’s more than familiar with the culture then 👍🏿
@@duchesstyra True.
@@kemmoneR he actually clarified on the popcorn and cheese, his mother is Tswana but his father is Pedi
Very good production and actors❤❤❤👌🏾

There are no tribes in South Africa but clans instead. We all fall under the Nguni tribe( Nguni tribe is Made up of clans i.e Xhosa, Zulu, Venda, Ndebele, Swati ect)
Venda is Nguni?
Venda? Never heard of that
Not Venda
venda, pedi, Tsonga, tswana, sotho are not Nguni.
@@duchesstyra venda is not Nguni.
