DJ Tira is the latest addition to the growing list of local celebrities opening up their lives to the public through a reality show. The show will feature DJ Tira, also known as Mthokozisi Khathi, his wife Gugu Khathi, and their children. Sources close to the star have revealed that the couple has already begun filming the show, and were given an offer they couldn’t refuse.
“Tira is a savvy businessman, so you can imagine how lucrative the deal must have been for him to agree to it,” said the source. Gugu, who has been in the spotlight since her teenage years, is also expected to play a significant role in the show.
The reality series will delve into DJ Tira’s journey in the music industry, from his early days working with DJ Sox as part of Durban’s Finest to his collaboration with Kalawa Jazzmee, which helped popularize Durban music. The show will also explore how DJ Tira established his record label, Afro Entertainment, and made waves in the industry with artists like Big Nuz over a decade ago.
Despite his success in the music industry, DJ Tira has faced his fair share of personal challenges. His previous marriage to Lale Ngcobo ended in a painful divorce, with allegations of witchcraft reportedly surfacing. While his current marriage to Gugu has also been marred by controversy, including allegations of infidelity.
The reality show is expected to be an intimate look into DJ Tira’s life, although it remains to be seen whether his previous marriage or the allegations of infidelity will be addressed. DJ Tira, a pioneer in promoting KZN artists internationally and discovering new talent, has yet to comment on the upcoming show, while Gugu has chosen to remain silent on the matter.
