Dada Fungula Bozela was born in Kinshasa, Congo-Kinshasa, the 21st of December, 1989. He is the first born of Emilie Elaka Bozela and the son of Ricky Bartelemy Fungula. His family immigrated to Sweden when Dada was 5. He was raised in Stockholm, Bagarmossen.In school, Dada wasn't interested in any other classes other than writing and literature. He found in books, his interest for what would become script writing and directing. He even found himself during Drama class, directing his other classmates. During adolesence, Dada's interest for writing and reading faded - he instead involved himself in Muay Thai. His dreams were then to become the worlds best Muay Thai athlete. At the age of 17, his mother, Emilie Elaka Bozela, sadly passed. The thing that got him through her passing was a song from the Pokemon soundtrack (Lugia's Song). This melody spoke to him and pushed him to write his first professional script in 2009, when he was 20. This is what brought him back to his passion for writing, directing and acting. However, Dada did not have the patience to go to any acting or writing school. His philosophy has always been, if you want something - you have to do it yourself.He made his acting debut in the feature film "Tommy" in 2014. He was then featured in "Torpederna" in 2016. He made his writing debut in 2017 with a radio drama "Unfaithful Towards My Husband". He directed it alongside Shang Imam. The play was featured on Swedish National radio, it was critically acclaimed. In 2019 Robin Nazari, a friend, gave him a tip to audition for Netflix Nordic's adaption of the trilogy "Easy Money/Snabba Cash". However, the casting directors were only looking for actors from age 18-25. This motivated Dada even more. Nevertheless, he attended the audition and said "THE KING IS HERE". He landed the roll as Ravy in Netflix's original series "Easy Money/Snabba Cash". Funny enough, one of his first lines as Ravy became "The king is here". Show less «
