Veteran Nigerian actor, filmmaker, and director Antar Laniyan has shared insights into his personal spiritual discipline, revealing that he fasts four times a week to maintain a strong connection with his faith. He made the disclosure during an interview on the Behind The Fame Podcast on Saturday, November 29, 2025.
Laniyan, widely respected for his contributions to both Yoruba and English-language cinema, explained that the practice is a deeply personal decision. “I fast four times a week,” he said, emphasizing that it has become a central part of his life and spiritual routine.
When asked whether his fasting was influenced by past life-threatening experiences, Laniyan clarified that it is purely spiritual. “It’s spiritual anyway. So, it’s a personal decision. It’s like when you decide that, okay, this is what I will do every week,” he explained.
He further noted that the commitment helps him stay close to God despite a busy schedule. “I really do not always have time to go to church. I don’t have time all the time to go to the temple. I don’t have time all the time to go to the mosque. But I don’t want to go too far from my God,” Laniyan said.
