“Shame and cowardice. The director was afraid of reporting “: Chulpan Khamatova was outraged by the dismissal of Leah Akhedzhakova 02.13.2023, 09:50

Lija Medzhidovna complained last week that she lost the opportunity to perform on the Sovremennik stage, which she has been serving since 1977. The star of the movie “Office Romance” announced that the management of the main theater canceled the last performance she attended. According to the 84-year-old People’s Artist of Russia, the director told her it was a “demand of angry people”.

Chulpan Khamatova spoke about the scandalous situation. As expected, the actress, who emigrated in February 2022, supported Acheđakova. The leading lady of the drama “Doctor Lisa” recorded a video message in which she shared her opinion.

“Lija Achežakova was the reason why I came to work at Sovremennik, why I loved this theater,” assured Khamatova. – Liya Akhedzhakova is the embodiment of Sovremennik theater … The director was afraid of denunciations, angry letters. He deleted The Gin Game from the repertoire – it is the last performance of Galina Borisovna Volchek, which she staged for Leah Akhedzhakova and Valentn Gaft. I have no words, because Achezhakov is the best thing in the Sovremennik theater. Now there is no better theater in this theater. It became a shame, a cowardice, a meanness, a deviation disgusting to people.

Chulpan also turned to his colleague. “Leah, please ignore the nonsense being written about you,” she asked. “These people are either getting paid to do this or they are very stupid. Save yourself. I really need you. And we need a lot more people. We hang on the edge of the abyss and cling to you.

In November of last year, it became known about the incredible success of Chulpan – she was recognized as “actress of the year” in Latvia. This is how Khamatova’s performance in the solo show Post Scriptum was recorded. Then Achežakova assured that she was happy for her colleague.

“This is some combination of the best for an actress: human talent and incredible talent. She is a bright actress, she has everything in the palm of her hand. You can see what kind of actress she is and what kind of person she is, ”Liya Medzhidovna showed.

On the eve, Maria Mironova called Achezhakov’s dismissal from Sovremennik a “flagrant injustice”. The daughter of the legendary actor Andrei Mironov called the line beyond which, in her opinion, one should not go.

Barbara Brylska turned to Achežakova. An 81-year-old Polish actress said the communists “will not give life” to a famous Russian woman. He plays in the movie “The Irony of Fate, or Enjoy a Bath!” he urged his partner to emigrate. However, she refused to follow her advice.
