'Seriously Single'! Netflix's South African rom-com is a major hit
Fulu Mugovhani and Tumi Morake steal the show in this entertaining rom-com.
Netflix's new romantic comedy, 'Seriously Single', has South Africans glued to their screens.
The film, which stars Fulu Mugovhani (Dineo) and Tumi Morake (Noni), premiered on Friday and it is already number one on the streaming platform's 'Top 10 in South Africa' list.
The movie is being streamed in 190 countries.
Dineo is a social media expert slash hopeless romantic, who is kind of obsessed with being in a committed relationship.
Her boyfriend dumps her on the most romantic day of the year - Valentine's Day!
Dineo's care-free bestie Noni tries to convince her to embrace the single life, but Dineo is having none of it and proceeds to stalk her ex-boyfriend online.

"Quality production from South Africa yet again..." one tweep wrote.
Another user added: "Oh wow this is such an amazing movie. So realistic and beautiful."
#SeriouslySingle is worth watching or maybe it's because I'm a stuck up romantic and I enjoy a good laugh.
