The mum was wondering \u2018who is this?\u2019 and then she got close to me and realised it was \u2018Pusher\u2019.<br \/>&#13;<br \/>\n&#8220;She gave me a nasty look and then said to the boy, \u2018come on, get away from this rascal\u2019,\u201d Pusher recounted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought she was joking but then\u2026when they walked away from me\u2026I felt very bad for myself, for the boy as well,\u201d he added but noted that he picked up key lessons from the encounter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt kind of also told me that whatever criticism I get out there, I will only look at the positives and see what I can take out of that to work for me. I thought that probably I might have been doing something good for me to be aligned with the character,\u201d the actor noted.<\/p>\n<p>In spite of that, Pusher did admit that playing that role came with its advantages as well. He recounted that he sometimes jumped queues at fast food joints.<\/p>\n<p>The actor also revealed that he met his wife, Elorm Anang on the set of \u2018Things We Do For Love\u2019 for which he is ever grateful.<\/p>\n<p>The two been have married for eight years and have a son together.<\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 57 updated by: -1 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Friday, 13 October 2017 Source: Myjoyonline.com 2017-10-13 Adjetey Anang &#13; Versatile actor, Adjetey Anang shot into prominence through the popular television series, \u2018Thing We Do For Love\u2019.
