Renate Stuurman, Khanyi Mbau and Mmabatho Montsho star in Happiness is a Four Letter Word, the fan-favourite romcom about four friends juggling their careers, friendship and love lives in the City of Gold.

Perfectionist lawyer Nandi (Mmabatho Montsho) seems to have her dream life within her grasp: she’s a partner in a major firm, she’s engaged and she lives in the perfect house – but it all goes up in flames a few months before the wedding when a blast from the past requests her to work on his case.

With her friends Zaza (Khanyi Mbau) and Princess (Renate Stuurman), Nandi will have to find out what truly makes her happy and then fight to get it.
