Nandipa was born around 1999 or 2000 in Durban, the third most populous city in South Africa’s KwaZulu-Natal province.She attended the New York Film Academy, a for-profit film and acting school with locations in New York City, Los Angeles, and Miami. Nandipa has a background in filming, directing, and producing.

She got her first break in the television series Gomora, where she played Sibongile. She had to go through several auditions before she was cast in the role on Gomora.

The actress has “been on set” with some of South Africa’s biggest talents in cinema and television. Sibongile seems on film as a braggart and disrespectful character, yet in reality she is quite the reverse.

She earned the character of Sibongile on Mzansi Magic’s Gomora television drama series. Despite her inexperience on the screen, her character has captured the attention of many showgoers.
