Kelani
Celebrated cinematographer, Tunde Kelani, is currently on a campaign to raise awareness of sickle- cell anaemia which has affected several families because of certain decisions made by couples.
 As expected, he is passing across his message through another production titled Dazzling Mirage. He states that the film is going to leave a lasting impression on the audience.
Kelani also says the film is based on a story written by Olayinka Egbokhare.
In a one minute, 52 seconds’ preview of the film, picture quality manifests even as suspense fuses every scene.
  Kelani explains, ‘‘Dazzling Mirage is a movie and a movement. It aims to help raise awareness about the sickle cell condition and to help people make better and informed decisions. The movie is a love story marked by acts of betrayal and loyalty as seen in the life of a sickle cell sufferer.’’
He further says the film will starting premiering in April.
According to the cinematographer, it is a socially relevant film produced to draw more attention to sickle-cell disorder in Nigeria; a country  that has the greatest number of sickle-cell cases in the world.
 The movie parades Nollywood stars such as Bimbo Manuel, Kunle Afolayan, Kemi ‘Lala’ Akindoju, Bukola Awoyemi,Khabirat Kafidipe, Taiwo Ajai Lycett, Yomi Fash Lanso, among others.
