Dzhigarkhanyan Armen Borisovich family. Dzhigarkhanyan's abandoned wife gave her first interview

Dzhigarkhanyan and his young wife and the birth of their son yesterday

The scandal continues in the family of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan: the 82-year-old actor firmly intends to file for divorce from his 38-year-old wife Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya.

He calls his wife a thief and says that in two years family life She cunningly took possession of everything - the apartments that belonged to him, his savings, and even the theater that he created and named after himself. Now Armen Borisovich is in the hospital, where he was admitted with an attack of diabetes after a conflict with his wife. And according to the actor, they have quarrels lately it got bigger and bigger.

In addition to material issues, the couple argued about one more thing: Vitalina dreamed of becoming a mother and having a child from Dzhigarkhanyan. The artist was categorically against this, which he directly spoke to his young wife about.

Dzhigarkhanyan's son flirts with Elina Mazur

In mid-October, a major family conflict broke out between actor Armen Dzhigarkhanyan and Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya. She asked Elina Mazur for help, but then they had a fight and started throwing mud at each other on television.

Later to family drama Dzhigarkhanyan’s son Stepan, who has been living in the States for about 30 years, got involved. He even flew to Moscow to participate in a talk show. In his youth, Stepan dated Elina, but they had to break up because... she did not dare to move with him to the USA, writes the website life-dom2.su

Three decades have passed since then. Elina Mazur has been married for a long time, Stepan is also in a relationship. However, the meeting on the talk show apparently reawakened the feelings of the former lovers.

Elina Mazur says that she is constantly in touch with Stepan, and communicating with her gives her pleasure. Elina admitted that Stepan even wondered if he had a chance to marry her. He would like to live with her and said that he was ready to sell his soul for a night with her.

Regarding Dzhigarkhanyan’s condition, Mazur said that a family conflict had undermined his health. Although he now ends up in the hospital more often, he is now taken care of much better than in his marriage to Vitalina. Dzhigarkhanyan completely forgot his former and dishonest nurse.

“She demanded a child from me.” How could I do this? Only an adventurer would agree to have a baby at the age of 80,” Dzhigarkhanyan said in an interview with NTV channel. The actor was not ready to take responsibility and become a father, realizing that he was unlikely to even see his heir go to first grade.

According to her, before the scandalous separation, she and Armen Dzhigarkhanyan were thinking about having a child.

Armen Dzhigarkhanyan's only daughter Elena died at the age of 23 - in 1987 she died in a car from carbon monoxide inhalation. Having married his theater colleague Tatyana Vlasova in 1967, the actor raised her son from his first marriage. Now Stepan Vlasov lives in the USA and does not communicate with his stepfather.

After being discharged from the hospital, Dzhigarkhanyan plans to live separately from his wife. Meanwhile, Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya still hopes to get her husband back.

“We need to talk seriously, discuss everything.” Until that moment, we had never even had a big fight. Now his phone has been taken away, so I have no way to contact my husband and explain the situation,” said Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya. She is sure that her husband is being manipulated by friends who are turning him against her.

• Armen Dzhigarkhanyan and ex-wife Vitalina Tsymbalyuk Romanovskaya latest news. Detailed information.

Comes from an old family of Tiflis Armenians. When Armen was only a month old, his father Boris left the family, and Armen saw his father for the first time as an adult.

He was raised by his stepfather, with whom the boy developed the warmest relationship.

Armen grew up in a Russian-speaking environment, studied at a Russian school and learned the basics of Armenian and Russian cultures with equal diligence. Mother Elena Vasilievna was an avid theatergoer and did not miss a single drama or opera performance.

During his school years, Armen became interested in theater and cinema, and after graduating from school (1952) he went to Moscow and tried to enter GITIS, but was unsuccessful. Returning to Yerevan, Armen Dzhigarkhanyan got a job at the Armenfilm film studio as an assistant cameraman.

In 1954 he entered the Yerevan Art Institute theater institute, on a course with the famous director Vartan Adzhemyan, head of the G. Sundukyan Theater. But the enrollment turned out to be too large, and Dzhigarkhanyan switched to the course of Armen Karapetovich Gulakyan (graduated in 1958).

At the end of last year, KP published material about the conflict in the family of the people's favorite artist Armen Dzhigarkhanyan. Now there is a legal battle between him and his ex-wife Tatyana Vlasova (they divorced in the summer of 2015). At stake is a three-room apartment in the center of Moscow and money raised from the sale of a house in America.

This is Tatyana Sergeevna's first interview. She herself invited us to visit the very apartment in Starokonyushenny Lane, over which there is a dispute.

In 1998, Armen Borisovich bought a house in Dallas, where you moved...

My move to America was my husband's initiative. I had to build a family nest, without doubting that over time he would move there too. At first, Armen Borisovich came to see me every year. Every time I asked him if he had found a successor at the theater when he finally moved into our house. I'm already used to living in America.

DREAMS OF HOLLYWOOD

- For what the most popular actor, who was included in the Guinness Book of Records as the most filmed artist, go to America?

Perhaps he wanted to join the American elite. Dreams of Hollywood...

- Without knowledge of English.

My husband lived according to his own scripts.

This was a period when Armen Borisovich did not appear on stage for ten years. True, he acted a lot in films and directed the theater. But then something sparked inside him again, and he began performing plays again. Moreover, in America the attitude towards our artists is not the same as here. If they recognize you by sight, it will only be in an emigrant environment.

At the Dallas Museum of Art, I conducted tours for the Russian-speaking public. It was volunteer work, no salary was paid. I worked part-time teaching Russian and did productions for children, but the money was small.

We moved our Siamese cat there. We were both very attached to Phil. When Armen Borisovich came to Dallas, he stayed with Phil, and I flew to Moscow to restore order in our Moscow apartment. While he was working in Russia, I was babysitting the cat in Dallas. The cat lived with us for 18 years.

LIVED IN THE INTERESTS OF HUSBAND

When I moved to America (it was in 1999 - Ed.), I was 57 years old. Now I’m 74 years old,” Tatyana Sergeevna continued her confession. - Dzhigarkhanyan’s new wife Vitalina (Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya, 37 years old, originally from Kyiv, married the actor a year ago. - Ed.), says that their relationship is more than 15 years old. I lived in America for exactly that long, so it turns out that my husband deceived me for so many years...

- A man of ANY age will never be left alone. Especially if he is an artist, and even such a popular one, like Armen Dzhigarkhanyan.

I didn't think about it. Maybe I’m such a naive Siberian felt boot because I myself am loyal by nature. It seemed to me that Armen Borisovich was happy with his family life with me. I have always been a comfortable wife and a reliable support.

We shared joys and sorrows together. When we moved from Yerevan to Moscow in 1967, no one imagined that Armen would become the same Armen Dzhigarkhanyan that everyone knows now. We lived in a tiny theater room, without amenities. We waited a long time for them to give us an apartment. So we went through fire, water and copper pipes together. He made a career by rejecting everything that distracted him from his work. I took care of the house and everyday life. But I have a diploma in theater studies and an acting education. I didn’t have luxurious fur coats, I didn’t go to presentations with my husband. This suited him. And now he constantly appears in public with his young wife. I think she needs it more than he does.

- Vitalina not only promotes herself, but also takes care of Armen Borisovich. He said that when several years ago he was lying with a stroke in Moscow, no one called him from Dallas or even asked how he was doing.

Now they are saying that I did not take proper care of my husband. He stopped coming to Dallas in 2009 when he suffered a second stroke. But I didn't know he was sick. He usually called America. And when I found out, I flew to Moscow to visit him in the hospital. But my husband said: there is no need to go to him.

- At the same time, did he send you money to live on?

Sent regularly. In America, I lived with this money, paid taxes, utility bills, and made home repairs. In March 2015, I sold the house on his initiative, and in April I returned to Moscow. I called my husband: please come, let’s talk. He again refused the meeting under various pretexts. Soon the question of divorce arose. That’s when I refused financial assistance. In June we were divorced.

When I humiliatedly waited for him near the theater, this was a few months after our divorce, he didn’t even want to talk to me. I was watching him on the street after the performance, he came out, I told him: “Hello, I’m Tatyana Sergeevna.” “Hello,” he replied friendly. He didn't even recognize me! And when I realized who I was, I got into the car and drove away. Then they wrote a statement to the police against me, alleging that I had threatened Dzhigarkhanyan. I didn’t threaten, I made an attempt to talk to my ex-husband about how to move on.

LIKE A GENTLEMAN TO LEAVE THE APARTMENT

Our apartment in Starokonyushenny Lane is shared ownership, half is his, half is mine. So we have nothing to share. Vitalina wants to sell this apartment. I ask you to leave me an apartment so that I can live in it...

- But you sold your house in America. You kept the money for the house (there is also a lawsuit over this money. - Ed.), although according to the law, property acquired during marriage is divided in half.

After such a long marriage, I have the right to file a lawsuit against my ex-husband demanding financial support. But I was uncomfortable, he is 81 years old after all. Famous personality, the demand from him is different. There was no agreement between us to divide the money for the house. Initially, Armen Borisovich said that he gave me the house. And I treated this property as if it were my own.

- You sold the house for more than 130 thousand dollars. Agree, the money is good, even if it is divided between you and your ex-husband. Which option do you think is fair?

I would like Armen Borisovich to let me live in an apartment on Arbat. Didn't sell it. He has another apartment, in Krasnogorsk, where he lives with Vitalina. There is another one in Kuntsevo, where they are doing renovations. I could live on the money for an American house. I am alone, there is no one to expect help from. I have minimum pension for old age - 8,500 rubles (about 4,000 UAH). Son? What does this have to do with my son?! I'm not asking for alms. My son has his own life, I have mine.

PERSONAL VIEW

For some reason, it is customary to express sympathy for abandoned wives...

Friends of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan told me that a whole novel could be written about his family life, his life is so full of dramatic conflicts. This is probably how it should be for a great artist. In this whole family conflict, it is Armen Borisovich who personally sympathizes with me.

I don’t think that the position of a people’s artist’s wife is a well-paid sinecure that will provide food until old age. I prefer working women.

Moreover, it is not clear what kind of spiritual generosity you are counting on if ex-husband meets you on the street and doesn’t recognize you? Not because he sees poorly or something has happened to his memory. But because you haven’t lived together for many years and haven’t even seen each other, even though you are married. Tatyana Sergeevna’s reasoning that she sacrificed her career for the sake of her husband’s career is talk in favor of the poor, reminiscent of Chekhov’s Uncle Vanya: they say, if it weren’t for you, I would have become Dostoevsky or Schopenhauer.

And in the division of property with his ex-wife, whom Dzhigarkhanyan supported all his life, I don’t see a very ungentlemanly act. Half an apartment on Arbat and half the money received from the sale of an American house - isn’t that bad for a comfortable old age? But for some reason it is customary for us to express sympathy for abandoned wives, and not for the men who left them.

The family scandal of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan and Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya does not subside. Armen Borisovich filed for divorce and called his 38-year-old wife a “thief” in front of television cameras, announcing that during two years of marriage she had transferred all his real estate to herself and emptied his accounts. The 82-year-old actor suspects his wife of fraud not only with his personal finances, but also with the funds of his theater, where Vitalina has been the director for the last two years. Based on a statement written by the artist to the Investigative Committee, an investigation has been launched.

Dzhigarkhanyan's young wife earned four times more than her husband

“He was her dependent”

The fact that Vitalina stole some property from Dzhigarkhanyan is a lie! - representative Tsymbalyuk Elina Mazur assured us. - Vitalina is very worried, because on his part this is the deepest betrayal. Spout some nonsense about stealing, while actually being dependent on Vitalina! She is not a poor person, she has her own ways of earning money. And to say that the beggar Vitalina came and robbed the rich old man is complete nonsense.

- But Dzhigarkhanyan said that he now has nowhere to go - he was left with nothing!

This is not true. He and Vitalina bought an apartment during their marriage; it is joint property.

An apartment worth 30 million rubles on Molodogvardeyskaya Street, which Vitalina purchased, as she said, for her and Armen Borisovich, is registered only in her name, argues the artist’s close friend Arthur Soghomonyan. - Vitalina registered the apartment in her name the day before the marriage was registered, so that after the divorce this property will not be divided in half. Armen Borisovich transferred another apartment, a one-room apartment in the village of Rublevskoye Predmestye, Krasnogorsk District, to Vitalina himself - at her request. Vitalina sold her share in the apartment in Starokonyushenny Lane, in which Armen Borisovich lived with his wife Tatyana Vlasova, to a legal entity. It turns out that legally Armen Borisovich now has no property at all. He left her with one suitcase. But Vitalina has three apartments.

- They say that Tsymbalyuk’s salary at the theater was higher than that of Armen Borisovich?

Yes. Several times more. There was generally something strange going on with the accounting department. At the beginning of this year, the Moscow Department of Culture allocated about 100 million rubles to the theater. Before this, he allocated 85 million rubles a year. And at the same time, the theater had tax debts and salaries were delayed. The money disappeared somewhere.

Own company

In a short time, pianist Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya, who came to Moscow in 2009 from Ukraine, became a successful businesswoman. At first she did not have housing in Moscow, she even registered temporarily at the address of the Dzhigarkhanyan Theater. Armen Borisovich accepted her to the position of head of the musical part of the theater. But when Vitalina became his legal wife, she took the place general director.

We decided to clarify Vitalina’s income. A source told KP: the official earnings of the director of the Dzhigarkhanyan Theater Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya were about 300 thousand rubles per month (see photo of the document).

- What is Dzhigarkhanyan’s monthly salary?- I address the question to the source.

After he transferred the functions of the head of the Tsymbalyuk Theater, this is 80 thousand rubles.

- This is not a mistake?!

No. Armen Borisovich was calm about the salary reduction...

Maybe the artist didn't care about money because he had savings for a rainy day? But our other source said that no bank accounts are registered in Dzhigarkhanyan’s name. More precisely, they were, but are now closed because the money has been withdrawn from them.

But Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya is a lady of high income. She has accounts and deposit boxes in several banks. The woman owns three apartments, two in the Krasnogorsk region and one in Moscow. In addition, Tsymbalyuk registered the company “Art-Vitalina-Project”.

Vitalina’s company was engaged in the rental of enterprise performances,” clarifies Arthur Soghomonyan. - For example, there was an enterprise performance in which Dmitry Kharatyan, Vitalina, Dzhigarkhanyan participated. Profits from the rental went to Vitalina's company. And who actually spent the money on the production and paid the artists’ salaries? There is a version that the theater spent, and she took the profit. This company is now being checked by the authorities.

Dad became the chief electrician in the theater, mom became a costume designer.

The big question is why Vitalina received more than Armen Borisovich,” continues Arthur Soghomonyan. “I wouldn’t be surprised if she gave her parents, whom she hired to work at the theater, a salary higher than Dzhigarkhanyan’s. Her dad became the chief electrician, her mother the chief costume designer. She eliminated the position of artistic director and made Armen Borisovich president - this is a supervisory position, without actual power...

- Was money the main reason for the breakup of their family?

Discontent has been building for a long time. The fact that Vitalina cared about her financial situation was all right. Armen Borisovich looked at this tolerantly. He said that when she arrived, she wanted to have real estate here, I understand... But when Vitalina suddenly decided that she was a stage director and began making musical performances, fundamental disagreements began.

Last year, a conflict arose when Dzhigarkhanyan ordered the cancellation of a musical play she staged about Mary Stuart, but she released it anyway. I remember I came to the premiere and was amazed. There was some kind of karaoke on stage: artists who could not sing took a microphone in their hands. Even before the premiere, Armen Borisovich felt bad - he demanded that the play be filmed. Even his attending physician said: well, cancel the premiere, since he reacts like that, his health is more important. But Vitalina did it her way. Then they had a big quarrel, I reconciled them. He invited them to go to Spain together and paid for the vacation. Armen Borisovich calmed down.

“There were rumors of cheating”

But this fall everything happened again,” says Arthur Soghomonyan. - Vitalina made a musical performance “Marina Tsvetaeva”. Armen Borisovich looked and said: “I forbid the premiere.” But she still released the performance - they say, the money was invested, it cannot be canceled. Then Armen Borisovich had a health crisis and was admitted to the hospital.

We, friends, were previously surprised by Armen Borisovich’s chosen one, but since Vitalina took care of his health, we did not get involved in their relationship. But this time Vitalina behaved aggressively and started talking about the fact that it was time for Armen Borisovich to retire. Moreover, there were rumors about her possible infidelity... I don’t know if they are true, but perhaps Armen Borisovich also heard such talk. And yet, I think main reason the collapse of their family is that Vitalina began to make productions herself and did not listen to Dzhigarkhanyan’s opinions. And for him, the creative question comes first. He deeply cares for the theater that bears his name.

SPECIFICALLY

What does the artist's wife own?

According to the state registration service database, Dzhigarkhanyan’s young wife Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya owns three apartments:

✔ Three-room apartment (134.5 m2) on Molodogvardeyskaya Street, next to the Kuntsevskaya metro station. Cadastral value- 30 million rubles. According to realtors, you can sell an apartment for 40 - 60 million rubles, taking into account the European-quality renovation, the fact that the house is a new building, there is underground parking, two insulated loggias, a good location, close to the metro. A premium can also be taken for star rating, since the housing belonged to Dzhigarkhanyan.

✔ One-room apartment (53 m2) in the Rublevskoye Predmestie village in the Krasnogorsk district. Cadastral value - 5 million rubles. According to realtors, it can cost 7 - 10 million rubles. (considering that this is a new building in an elite village).

✔ Apartment (71.3 m2) in Krasnogorsk, where her parents live. But according to documents, it belongs to Vitalina. Cadastral value - 6 million rubles. According to realtors, it could cost 7.5 - 10 million rubles, since it is located almost next to Moscow, a new building.

Armen Dzhigarkhanyan and Vitalina Tsymbalyuk: from love to divorce. The famous actor Armen Dzhigarkhanyan breaks up with his young and once beloved wife with a scandal. But everything started out so beautifully for Armen and Vitalina...

MEANWHILE

Dzhigarkhanyan's wife left Russia

Vitalina Tsymbalyuk and her mother apparently flew to Georgia to go from there to their homeland - Kyiv. According to another version, she flew to the sea to warmer climes

Meanwhile, in the theater, which is still managed by her husband (Dzhigarkhanyan filed for divorce last week), strange things are happening. Armen Borisovich removed some of the performances from the repertoire and put others on the playbill. Some administration employees were asked to resign. After this, many of them took sick leave. Acting General Director Elena Gilvanova was on sick leave. She was appointed by the Moscow Department of Culture after the resignation of Vitalina Tsymbalyuk. Gilvanova’s deputy is also sick. Both the press secretary and the head of the HR department all fell ill. Only Dzhigarkhanyan works, who, as we understand, not only works, but also lives in the theater.

Over his long, more than eighty-year life, Armen Dzhigarkhanyan was married three times. All of his wives were different from one another, and the fate of each of them developed differently.

The artist's double tragedy

The first wife of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan was the actress of the Yerevan Russian Theater. Stanislavsky, Alla Vannovskaya. Dzhigarkhonyan was also enrolled in the same theater. He was struck by the extraordinary beauty of the young woman, and Anna reciprocated his feelings.

The couple lived for six years, but they did not bring much joy to Dzhigarkhanyan. Alla was explosive, hysterical and painfully jealous. They say that in a fit of jealousy she rushed into a fight.

In 1964, Alla Vannovskaya gave birth to a daughter, Elena. Childbirth complicated Alla’s already precarious health, and doctors diagnosed her with a mental illness - chorea(Dance of St. Vitus). Unable to bear it, Dzhigarkhonyan took his one-year-old daughter and filed for divorce.

They say that when Dzhigarkhanyan moved to Moscow, Alla Vannovskaya committed suicide. According to another version, she died in a psychiatric hospital.

Later, the artist’s mother helped raise Elena, and then, when he got back on his feet in Moscow, the actor took her in with him. Elena wanted to follow in her father’s footsteps, and rehearsed the play “Sunset” with her father. Shortly before the premiere, Elena was found asleep in a car with her boyfriend. What was it - an accident or a double suicide! This question remains unanswered.

It is only known that Elena had a relationship with a young man, and the famous dad was against his daughter’s choice. Only once in an interview did Dzhigarkhanyan say, “ It's my fault».

Marriage of forty years

Dzhigarkhanyan lived with his second wife Tatyana Vlasova for more than forty years. He met her at the same Yerevan Russian Theater, where she went to serve as head of the literary department. She stood on the porch of the theater, thin, in black stockings, and smoked a long cigarette with a cigarette holder. Seeing her, the actor realized that this was his woman.

She was married to the director of the theater in which Dzhigarkhanyan served. Tatyana gave birth to a son, Stepan, in marriage with her husband, but the couple no longer lived together. Nevertheless, Dzhigarkhanyan did not dare to court, he simply admired from afar. One day a girl complained that nothing made her happy. " There is a proven way - you need to fall in love", advised the artist. Tatyana told the actor some time later that she followed this advice. So she confessed her love for the artist.

The young couple signed in a hurry, without even having time to buy rings. The actor put his grandmother's wedding ring on the bride's finger.

Soon Lenkom actress Olga Yakovleva came to their theater. Impressed by working with Dzhigarkhanyan in the play “104 Pages about Love,” she invited Armen to move to Moscow. To play at Lenkom, with Efros himself - who could resist such an offer? Tatyana also had a desire to move to the capital.

They lived in a small room in the basement of the theater without amenities, but were so passionate about each other that they did not notice the difficulties.

Dzhigarkhanyan’s relationship with Tatyana’s son Stepan did not work out. They remained strangers. He graduated from the Faculty of Journalism of Moscow State University, but did not work in his specialty. Dzhigarkhanyan did everything possible for his stepson- bought an apartment, set up his own theater, which he organized in 1996. Stepan also did not stay long at his stepfather’s theater; he was fired for gross violation of labor discipline.

And suddenly, in the nineties, the artist’s wife expressed a desire to move to the USA. By that time, Dzhigarkhanyan had received American citizenship. Dzhigarkhanyan himself did not want to move overseas. He stayed in Russia, where his work, language, his theater are.

For fifteen years the couple lived on opposite sides of the ocean, Dzhigarkhanyan spent only two months a year in America. He complained that Tatyana was not at all interested in his life, health, or affairs. He fully supported his wife, paying all his bills and needs. A void formed next to the artist himself, and, as you know, a holy place is never empty. A third woman appeared in his life.

I was just nearby

Vitalina Tsymbalyuk-Romanovskaya was born in the late 70s in Kyiv, where she graduated from the Music Academy of Ukraine named after P. I. Tchaikovsky. In 2001, she moved to Moscow, where she continued her education at the Maimonides State Classical Academy.

The girl was a longtime fan of Armen Dzhigarkhonyan, back in her youth, in Kyiv, she attended a performance with his participation and received an autograph from the star’s hands. Since then, she dreamed of meeting the actor, looked for meetings, looked for phone numbers.

She managed to meet her idol in person. They met sometimes and had lunch together. Vitalina was then teaching at the Jewish Academy, and Dzhigarkhanyan invited her to work in his theater. The woman first worked there as an accompanist, then headed the musical department.

In 2001, Dzhigarkhonyan suffered a mini-stroke, and a devoted fan was next to the actor's sister. Meanwhile, his legal wife lived quietly in the United States, and supposedly did not even know about his illness. According to one version, Armen himself did not tell her, because he forbade calling his wife from America, but always called himself. Vitalina supported the middle-aged man in every possible way and looked after him.

There are very contradictory rumors about Vitalina, that with her arrival intrigues appeared in the theater, that she influences the distribution of roles and is guilty of the dismissal of a number of leading actors and other theater workers. Since 2015, the girl took the position of theater director, and she is also blamed for the departure of the previous director.

Dzhigarkhanyan divorced Tatyana Vlasova, and in 2016 married Vitalina. He cannot answer the direct question of why she hooked him. " If you know the answers to all the questions, then you are from KVN", he says.

In the fall of 2017, a scandal began around the marriage of Armen and Vitalina. The couple divorced, and their divorce proceedings and all its ensuing consequences were discussed in detail in the episodes of Let Them Talk and Live broadcast. After the divorce, all of the actor’s real estate went to his ex-wife.

A video appeared on the Internet where Armen calls Vitalina “cheap” and swears at the girl, demanding to pour him more whiskey. On the show, Vitalina did not tell the reason for the scandal. ex-wife Dzhigarkhanyan said that she felt unnecessary in this relationship.

The episodes also discussed Vitalina’s possible pregnancy and her involvement in the embezzlement case at the Dzhigarkhanyan Theater. During all the proceedings, Olga Martynova supported Vitalina.

In this article we will talk about the actor who was included in the Guinness Book of Records as a person who embodied and played more than 400 different characters and images on screen and stage.

About the idol of millions of viewers of Russian cinema - the charming and unpredictable people's favorite of the USSR and Russia - Armen Borisovich Dzhigarkhanyan.

During his long career as a film actor, he was able to train many famous actors and found the Moscow Drama Theater, which he has headed for decades.

Height, weight, age. How old is Armen Dzhigarkhanyan

How many movie fans are there now who can say exactly what their height, weight, and age are? How old is Armen Dzhigarkhanyan? But he was born in 1935 and he is already 81 years old, but this is not an age for a person originally from Armenia, since this nation is distinguished by excellent health and longevity. He still acts in films and plays on stage, and devotes a lot of time to management. Armen Borisovich's height is 175 cm, and his weight is 80 kg, which is not enough for his age, because he has to run and fuss, because he needs to lead and teach.

Biography and personal life of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan

The biography and personal life of Armen Dzhigarkhanyan begins in the fall of 1935 in the city of Yerevan. When the son was not yet a year old, the father left the family. His mother remarried and was raised by his stepfather, of whom he has fond memories.

As a child, Armen was often a spectator of the Yerevan Theater, and looking into the hall, the boy realized that this was his future.

After graduating from school, Armen went to Moscow to enter GITIS to study acting. Imagine his disappointment when he was refused, citing his obvious Armenian accent. I had to return to my hometown, where after 2 years of training I entered the Yerevan Theater Institute. He passed the exams and audition the first time, and it was from this moment that his creative career began.

While still a first-year student, he gets a job in a drama theater, as an actor in the wings. Thanks to his brilliant performance, even in episodic roles, he gets a place in the main cast of the troupe.

While working in the temple of art, he attended various screen tests and starred in the film “Collapse” (1959), in which he remained unnoticed.

A year later, the film “Triangle” was released, for which the actor still thanks fate for his participation and is very proud that he was able to appear in it. This film made directors pay attention to him.

Filmography: films starring Armen Dzhigarkhanyan

Offers to play leading roles in films come every day; over the course of several years he has starred in “Operation Trust”, “Hello, I’m your Aunt!”, “Dog in the Manger”, “The Meeting Place Cannot Be Changed”.

At one of the premieres he met director Efros, who invited him to move to Moscow and become an actor at Lenkom. The artist could not miss such a chance.
