“To make demands on an 80-year-old woman is a bad thing”: Alexander Rodnyansky called to feel sorry for Sofia Rotara 28.04.2023, 9:15

The performer of the hit “Farmář” refused to speak publicly after the start of the special operation. Sofia Mikhailovna does not even organize company parties. The 75-year-old actress leads a secluded lifestyle. Many Ukrainians are expressing their displeasure on social media that the pop star is not making political statements.

The 61-year-old producer of the films “Leviathan”, “Duelist”, “9th Company” and many others asked users not to submit their requests to Rotar. “I have a complete feeling that Sofia Mikhailovna has spoken. I’ve heard and read some nasty things about her. Maybe he doesn’t do it every day. Everyone has their own life. Look, making demands on an 80-year-old woman is a bad thing. We have to start with ourselves. If you expect something from Rotar, ask yourself first, ”advised Alexander Rodnyansky (included in the list of persons acting as a foreign agent).

Recently, the former director of the People’s Artist of the USSR said that she was forced to take a side in a conflict between neighboring countries. “They were faced with a choice: who to support, how to be, what to show,” said Olga Konyakhina on NTV’s New Russian Sensations program. She sympathized with Rotaru. “The fact that your career ended like this is of course terribly bitter: no farewell concert for you… But there will be no more. First, age. Second, where and how? Such an end is very sad for an artist, “said Olga.

Sofia Mikhailovna canceled large-scale celebrations of her anniversary in August of last year. The owner of the titles “Hero of Ukraine” and “National Legend of Ukraine” explained her decision. “Today is not the time to celebrate an anniversary,” she assured.

Rotara is supported by her only son, Ruslan Evdokimenko. The singer’s granddaughter, named Sofia after her, has been living in the United States for several years.

Alexander Rodnyansky returned to his native Kyiv in February 2022. The president of the Kinotavr festival announced that it will not be held in the near future.
