Leah Medzhidovna remained without roles in Sovremennik. The director of the theater explained this with letters from angry people who demanded that the actress be removed from the stage because of her civil status. However, the star of the Soviet screen refuses to believe it.

As a result, Akhedzhakova left the theater where she served for more than forty years. She felt it was unfair to get paid when she wasn’t working. Her dismissal was not the end of this story. Movie actress “Office Romance” she said that new problems await her.

“I know that there is another slander against me at the public prosecutor’s office: some supporters are demanding that I be recognized as a foreign agent,” said Achedžakova. According to his words, he is not going to leave Russia because he loves his native country.

The actress does not understand why people keep accusing and trying to accuse her of terrible things. “They found me a criminal too.” And after all, all sorts of people continue to report on me in all sorts of cases. So my lawyer told me to tape my mouth shut. I was accused of the most terrible and serious crime that can be charged today – supporting the Ukrainian army. This is high treason, up to 20 years in prison, “the star shared in an interview with Interlocutor”.

At the same time, Akhedzhakova herself regrets that she could not say goodbye to the stage to which she devoted her whole life. “If I had known that some kind of departure to her would be my last, I would certainly have organized some kind of farewell ritual,” assured the artist.
