Mikhail Shufutinsky was injured after falling on the ice and ended up in a wheelchair October 3, 2023, 2:00 p.m.

The popular chanson singer tries to lead an active lifestyle. However, Mikhail Zakharovich could not fully enjoy his favorite winter pastime. Now the 74-year-old star will have to spend time rehabilitating after a bad fall. The performer of the hit “Třetí sáří” is forced to stay at home and not move much.

“I slipped on the ice, my right leg went forward and I fell like a madman on my back. He broke his coccyx, pulled a muscle in his leg, meniscus problems are still suspected. Then the pain goes away, then suddenly the shoulder or something else starts to hurt. That’s why I sit on a special cushion in a wheelchair at home. It’s more comfortable for me,” Shufutinsky explained.

At the same time, even though Mikhail Zakharovich was injured, he prepared several performances and on March 1 held a full-fledged “Big Anniversary” concert in Ryazan. The way was hard for the chanson star. Nevertheless, the musician categorically did not want to cancel the event.

“The three and a half hour drive from Moscow was painful. But in Ryazan was the first solo concert of this season. This is my jubilee year. I decided that it is impossible to cancel and postpone it, “said Mikhail Zakharovich in an interview with AiF.

Shufutinsky will continue the anniversary tour with performances in Tyumen on March 22. Already on April 13, the singer will perform in St. Petersburg, and on April 18, he will have a festive concert with filming in the town hall of the capital Crocus.

Mikhail is happily married to Svetlana Urazova, who was a member of his ballet show. The age difference between the spouses is almost 30 years. Because of Svetlana, the artist lost 36 kilograms and got better. Shufutinsky tries not to drink alcohol and maintain a normal weight. However, he does not turn to the doctor again. “I don’t specifically go to doctors. Well, if something got sick or I had a dream, I somehow try it, “explained the Channel Five chansoner.

The artist was ill with the coronavirus in 2021. Shufutinsky was seriously ill, with a high fever and damaged lungs. Not without complications: Mikhail Zakharovich began to limp. Even before the infection, he underwent a complex spinal operation that saved him from paralysis. The intervention lasted about three hours, the artist was in an American clinic. In addition to her own health and creativity, Shufutinsky is happy about her grandchildren, of whom she has seven.
