The production crew and actors flunked Mchunu, who can be seen to be emotionally taken back by the love.
She captioned the video with emojis that showed exactly how she felt.
Fellow cast members have been showing her love from the moment she received the well deserved accolade.
When her name was called out as the winner of the award, many of her cast members jumped on stage to celebrate the moment.
During her acceptance speech, Mchunu used Zodwa’s broken English which the character is well known for as she thanked her supporters for voting for her.
The actress has been on Mzansi screens for a while now but her role in “Gomora” has taken her career to new heights and made her a recognisable talent.

“Sis Sana, you are a true testament to what life can be when you don’t give up.
“We are so elated for you. We are so proud of you. You deserve this and so much more,” she wrote.
