Agniya Kuznetsova is an incredibly talented actress. The young artist’s filmography includes a hundred films and all the heroines that Agnia has transformed into are girls of complex fate and difficult character. Although the actress herself does not want to play simpletons, she would play a comedic role with great pleasure. On at the moment the girl doesn't spend more time acting career, but your personal life.

Agniya Kuznetsova, biography

The famous artist was born on July fifteenth, 1985 in the city of Novosibirsk. But as Agnia herself notes, home for her it is a village, under unusual name Lake Karachi. It was there that my childhood years actually passed talented actress. The girl's mother is a teacher applied arts at the Novosibirsk Pedagogical Institute, dad devoted his entire life to art.

IN at a young age the girl was sent to a music school for choral singing, but the teachers did not see any special talent in her, so Agnia was never able to graduate from school. My next hobby was drawing and, I must say, I was better at drawing than singing. According to the girl herself, this talent was passed on to her from her dad. Later, the actress admitted that if it had not worked out with cinema, she would have seriously taken up art and become a famous artist.

At the age of 12, Agnia enrolled in a theater club. Performances on stage, compliments and applause do their job, and the girl decides to become an actress.

Having received a school certificate, the girl and her family leave Novosibirsk and move to live in Moscow. The young lady plans to enroll in a prestigious theater university. However, this is what happened, and she became a student of the famous “Pike”. Yuri Veniaminovich Shlykov becomes Kuznetsova’s manager. The girl played several performances during her studies, but, as a rule, she received exclusively male roles. Kuznetsova also performed on the stage of other theaters with the following performances:

  • "Don Gil Green Pants";
  • "Sneakers";
  • "Inquiry";
  • "Girl from the Revolution";
  • "Manifestation of love."

And already in 2006, Agnia graduated from the Shchukin School and received a diploma. Actually, from this moment the initial stage begins creative career young star.

Kuznetsova played her first role in student years. Painting "Gruz-200" was ambiguously assessed by critics, as was the actress’s debut role. Someone predicted that this is the first and last role of the young artist, since the role of the victim will remain in the girl’s role forever. Someone, on the contrary, admired Agnia’s magnificent performance. After her debut role, the girl got a job as an actress at the Modern Theater, although the long-term collaboration did not happen.

In 2018, the aspiring artist met the shocking Valeria Gai Germanika, director of the acclaimed film "Everyone will die, but I will remain". She invites Kuznetsova to star in her film, and gives her a choice of any role. Agnia, without thinking twice, agrees to play Zhanna.

At the same time, she does it so sincerely and with inspiration that she is awarded the prize for best actress. The award was presented at the Brussels Film Festival.

2010 was also busy with the filming process, the actress played main role in the film "Phobos" The film tells the story of a group of young people who went to a party in a fashionable club. As it turned out, they were lured into a trap from which not everyone could escape.

Subsequently, Kuznetsova took part in several more film projects, such as the serial film “I won’t give you to anyone” where the girl played the main female role. In this film, Agnia acted as a conductor. And also in the television series "Made in the USSR" True, she only got a cameo role in it, but she coped with it superbly. And at the end of 2012, a new comedy film “It’s Simple” was broadcast in cinemas, in which Agnia plays a key role.

In 2014, Kuznetsova was busy filming a melodrama "Yes and Yes". Directed again by close friend actress Valeria Gai Germanika. The film tells the story of the love between an artist and a teacher. Because of the filming, the girl had to wear dreadlocks, but as the young actress later said, this film is a kind of recognition in great love all the people of the planet.

The actress also took part in the following films:

  • "Birds of Heaven";
  • "Hot Ice";
  • “Oh, mommies”;
  • "Tower";
  • "Escape 2";
  • "Route of Death";
  • "Odessa-mama";
  • “Stranger Among Our Own”;
  • "Temptation";
  • "Mosgaz" and many other paintings.

The film “The Dawns Here Are Quiet” brought enormous popularity to the young star. This picture is considered the most successful in the girl’s acting career. She got the role of a young girl, Sonya, who died from torture by the Germans.

Personal life

Agnia’s first serious love occurred while studying at drama school. The girl's chosen one was the actor Leonid Bichevin. The young people met for some time and decided to live together. But unfortunately, living together did not benefit the couple and after a couple of months, they decided to separate. Agnia was seriously worried about the breakup and even fell into depression, from which only her favorite job helped her get out of it. Agnia begins to actively act in filming and this is to her benefit.

During the filming of the film “The Tower,” a girl meets a young man who worked as an assistant cameraman. As it turned out later, it was a certain Fedor Lyassov, he becomes Kuznetsova’s second lover.

Your next suitor Maxim Petrova Agniya Kuznetsova found out through the same Valeria Germanika. The director took part in a dance show, and her partner was Max. Valeria praised her girlfriend to him and arranged a meeting, although the dancer himself had never even heard of actress Kuznetsova before.

After meeting, the young people begin dating and already in September 2016 they have a beautiful wedding. Agniya Kuznetsova and her husband were very prepared for the celebration, as they consider this event to be very important in life.

A little later, information about pregnancy appeared in the press, as the actress noticed a rounded tummy at one of her performances in the theater. Journalists even calculated the approximate date of birth of the baby, but she did not give birth to the child by the appointed date. Agniya Kuznetsova does not comment on this story. After some time in social networks, information appeared that Agniya Kuznetsova lost her child. However, this information is also confirmed by nothing. And Anna herself never said or showed that she was pregnant.

Attention, TODAY only!

Agnia Kuznetsova’s creative repertoire includes a lot of roles in which she creates images of her heroines with a difficult fate and difficult character. However, the actress herself would not want to play modest and sweet girls, although she would not mind taking part in some comedy film. But now Kuznetsova devotes a lot of time not to work, but to her personal life. She had long wanted to get married and start her own family, so now everything free time the artist spends time with her beloved husband.

Agnia was born in 1985 in Novosibirsk into a family of artists. It is not surprising that the future movie star, already in her childhood, drew well, loved to read, and also went to performances with her parents. After graduating from school, the girl went to Moscow, where she entered the Shchukin School. Her first film roles appeared during her student years, but fame came to the girl when she starred in the film “Cargo 200”. No less successful was her role in the film “Everyone Will Die, But I Will Stay,” for which Kuznetsova received a well-deserved award at the film festival. The actress is currently filming the film “The Scenario,” which viewers will be able to appreciate very soon.

Agnia does not hide the fact that she has a rather harsh and eccentric character. Previously, the girl often offended people, but soon realized her actions, and she felt ashamed. Very often the beauty tried to re-educate her lovers, which did not have a very favorable effect on her personal life. While still studying at the theater school, Kuznetsova began dating Leonid Bichevin. The actors had been together for more than one year and were already planning to get married, but there was a quarrel between them and they broke up. Despite the fact that the girl had a hard time at that time, the former lovers remained friends.

She met her future husband, dancer Maxim Petrov, on the “Dancing with the Stars” project. But first, her friend, a director, danced with him and told him a lot of good things about Agnia. When the young people began to train, the actress noted to herself how attentive and caring Maxim was. Soon a romance broke out between them, and Kuznetsova realized that it was with him that she would like to marry and have children. In the fall of 2015, the lovers’ wedding took place, which took place in the presence of only their closest friends. The newlyweds also celebrated another celebration in Novosibirsk, where Agnia’s relatives live, and then in the summer of 2016 they had a third wedding in the Altai Mountains in Maxim’s homeland.

Soon after the newlyweds' honeymoon, reports appeared in the press that the actress was pregnant. As journalists wrote, this important event in Kuznetsova’s personal life was supposed to take place in the spring of 2016. But fans of the actress never received the news that their favorite gave birth to a child. As it turned out, these were just rumors, and in reality the actress herself is not yet ready to become a mother. Despite this, she is happy to help manage her children. best friend Guy Germanicus.

“Looking back at the past, I ask myself questions: “Who was I before? And was it me?" What do I remember now about that life? Exhausting romances that led nowhere, and as a result - confusion and pain from just the thought of love. I look back and seem to see myself - lost, confused in people and feelings, and I don’t understand: this happened in reality to me or I played some role,” said Agniya Kuznetsova.

ON THE TOPIC

Bohemian life is not the most in the best possible way affected the young actress. “There was a moment when it suddenly seemed that just a little more and I would be finished. It didn’t even seem like it, I knew for sure that if I continued in the same spirit, I would perish. I even knew how many years it would take and how it would all end But what killed me was the difference between who I was and who I really wanted to be. It wasn’t even the difference, but the abyss filled with sins and unnecessary relationships. All together it was some kind of huge ball of horror that I carried with agony. I still couldn’t decide to get rid of him,” the Caravan of Stories Collection quotes the actress.

However, Agnia managed to find the strength to rebuild herself and break with old life. “And yet the moment came when I clearly understood that one thing is work and the need to be in your circle, and another is your personal life and realizing yourself as a woman. That’s it, stop. I must finally clearly establish that, first of all, I am not an actress, but still a woman. And this means that I need a husband, children and a home,” said Kuznetsova.

Fortunately, she met dancer Maxim Petrov, who was the partner of her friend Valeria Gai Germanika on the television project “Dancing with the Stars.” The artists began an affair, and soon Agnia and Maxim got married. “We don’t have children yet. I joke that for now I only have a cat and Maxim, and I don’t have enough time for myself. But this means one thing: we need to come up with something, plan for four months in advance,” noted the actress.

According to Agnia, she has changed a lot. “Not externally. Although I would like to look a little older so that I can start playing other roles. But internal changes are much more important. You can say that I found myself and found peace of mind. Friends say: “Take care of Maxim, he is so good. A real man"But for some reason no one says that I’m good and that I need to be taken care of too! Of course, I’m not offended and I take care of Maxim. As we say: happy is not the woman who is with her father, but the one who is with her husband That is, after you get married, the main thing in your life is not your father, not your brother, not your son, but God, now you have to somehow live up to him and try to become better,” concluded Kuznetsova.

In September 2015, actress Agniya Kuznetsova connected her life with dancer Maxim Petrov. However, the couple is still unable to have children. In mid-July, the artist celebrated her birthday - she turned 33 years old. She admitted that she always wanted big family, however, she worries that her dream may not come true.

Agnia and her husband are thinking about taking the baby from orphanage. Kuznetsova admires those people who have found the strength to raise adopted children as their own.

“In general, in my opinion, a family should be big. I understand that I am already thirty-three years old and I am unlikely to give birth to three or four children. And since I am against artificial manipulation, I am thinking about taking a child from an orphanage. I admire the couples who adopt children in difficult situations and raise them as their own. For me, all children are the same, everyone needs love,” says the actress.

Immediately after the wedding, back in 2015, they began to say that Agnia was expecting a child. She wore loose clothes, and her friend Valeria Gai Germanika was also pregnant. Then the actress did not try to justify herself to her fans - after all, everything became clear to them when, after a certain time, nothing changed in the life of the spouses.

“In the first year of our life together, I relaxed somewhat: I worked a little, we traveled. I just ate, slept, rested and ended up gaining a few kilos. She weighed fifty-nine kilograms with a height of one hundred and sixty, and now she is about forty-nine. My cheeks didn’t even fit into the frame. I remember that I was starring in the war film “The Dawns Here Are Quiet,” and there was this text: “The sergeant major says: eat, otherwise you’ll be as thin as a rook.” This text had to be cut out,” recalls the artist.

Agnia and Maxim believe that a family should have more than one child. In addition, Kuznetsova does not want the kids to have big difference aged - she understands from her own experience how inconvenient it is. The actress admitted in an interview with Womanhit that only now she and her brother have found common ground. “We have a very close relationship, but if only I had a sister... And Maxim has a very powerful clan in Altai: brother, cousins, nephews - there huge family"- said the artist.

Agniya Kuznetsova and Maxim Petrov

Actress Agniya Kuznetsova walked for a long time towards her feminine happiness. There were betrayals and bitter disappointments along the way. As she admitted in an interview, such novels exhausted the soul, confusion and pain arose from just the thought of love. The meeting seemed to open a new chapter in her life. She takes this relationship very seriously: marriage is no longer about “butterflies fluttering in the stomach,” but about everyday work. This couple has been together for almost three years - with their joyful moments The guys shared their experiences in a frank conversation with Atmosfera magazine.

- Very soon you will celebrate your three-year anniversary. How do you feel about this date?

Maxim: Slightly, sometimes not so much, as is probably the case in all families. There are also good points, and complexity. The difficulties probably lie in the fact that we are both workaholics and have many projects. My work is mainly in Iceland - I have been living abroad for fifteen years, in different countries. Europe won’t let me go, so I have to fly there often.

Agnia: And I work in Moscow, I have filming, constant employment in the theater and participation in the enterprise. We are often separated for several weeks. And when we meet like we do now, it’s as if a new honeymoon begins for us, and the grind begins all over again.

Maxim: We must pay tribute to Agnia: she understands the situation and lets me go. We can still tolerate a month of separation normally, but when it lasts longer, the wife begins to get nervous.

Agnia: Yes, I demand his arrival or I cancel some projects myself and fly in for a couple of weeks. I've been to Iceland three times this year. That’s why our life is a little gypsy.

-Did you date for a long time before the wedding?

Agnia: We met in March 2015 at the charity show of the project “Dancing with the Stars”, we prepared a number together. At Easter, in April, we had our first date, in July Max proposed to me, and on September 16 we got married.

- It turns out that this was largely an emotional decision?

Agnia: From my side yes. I fell in love. And when a person captivates me, I will take him by any means. I understand that it didn’t sound quite feminine, but he still proposed. (Laughs.)

Maxim: I'm a little older than Agnia. And I already had a clear understanding that I wanted a family. You can work all your life, generations of dancers whom I train change, and the thought creeps in: “When will you arrange your destiny?” I realized that it was time, and besides, I had clear criteria for what kind of woman I wanted to see next to me. Agnia and I had time to talk to understand how she imagines the future family life. I want it to be like my parents - together once and for all.

Agnia: I don’t want to offend anyone, there are probably different situations when you need to get a divorce: for example, if the husband is a drug addict, wastes money on gambling, or goes on the wrong side. And if not serious problems, then since you got married, live, carry this cross, this collar. Do you know that in the old days in Ukraine, newlyweds wore a horse collar around their neck? This is a symbol that they are now together, in one team. And in Rus' there was a tradition: the bride cried before the wedding. And there is some truth in this too: when you tie your fate with a person, you also bear his burdens. I don’t want to say that everything is hard and bad in marriage, but if a girl thinks that endless pleasures await her in marriage, this is not so. You come together to work on relationships, to sacrifice something, to compromise. Love is like a flower that is cared for, watered, and gradually begins to bloom. At the first stage you have passion, hormones, but this is just the beginning. This is how nature intended for a woman and a man to unite. All the most important things begin later.

- Cross... how serious everything is. Weren't you scared by this position, Maxim?

Maxim: I guess I just needed someone to guide me. I had a relationship, of course, but there was no clear position: how and what to work on. You search and search, trying to find something better, but you may never find it. Agnia is right: relationships need to be built.

Agnia: You say that as if you didn’t fall in love with me at all...

Maxim: Of course, there were feelings, falling in love, but there were also specific life principles. I found everything I wanted to see in a woman in Agnia: devotion, fidelity, mutual understanding, and I liked that she was also from the creative sphere.

Agnia: Add also that you wanted a Russian wife. Maxim lived in Iceland, and all his brides were from there. But they never received a marriage proposal. (Laughs.)

Maxim: When I found out that Agnia was also a Siberian, the puzzle came together. We are almost neighbors: I am from Barnaul, she is from Novosibirsk. Our families are similar, and we both came to conquer Moscow. They achieved everything themselves, having neither friends nor connections here. In general, I thought we would understand each other.

Agnia: Only you wanted a blonde wife. I know you've always liked blonde girls.

Maxim: I didn't want a blonde! (Laughs.) Then, beauty is such a thing... it only works at the first stage, and then a goodwill towards a person should arise. To have something to talk about, as they say. (Laughs.)

- Maxim, have you been dancing your entire adult life?

Maxim: No, I’ve been involved in sports all my life, and dancing came into it quite late. First, I entered the college of culture in the dance department. I started taking serious steps only at the age of nineteen, but already at the age of twenty-three I became a master of sports in dancing. Our couple was one of the best in Russia; we took prizes at competitions.

- Now a man who dances is the same as before a guy with a guitar.

Agnia: The first guy in the village. (Laughs.)

Maxim: Actually, at first I hid it. In Russia, especially in the outback, it was not considered such a big plus that a man danced. Quite the contrary. Now I have an interest in dancing. Especially abroad, this is valued and paid decently.

- Did you know anything about the actress Agnia Kuznetsova?

Maxim: No. But when Agnia and I started training together, my mother told me: “Do you know that Agnia is Siberian?” She keeps track of everything, watches TV series, reads magazines - she keeps up with the lives of celebrities. (Smiles.)

Agnia: At this show, Maxim danced with my friend Valeria Gai Germanika, and even before we started rehearsing our number, we met at her daughter’s birthday party. And before that, Lera told Maxim in absentia all sorts of nice things about me. So she also played a role in our destiny.

- Agnia starred in several Germanika films. Did you see something, Maxim?

Maxim: I saw “Everyone will die, but I will stay”, “Yes and yes”. By the way, I watched it the day before our meeting with Agnia.

Agnia: How interesting, you didn’t tell me about this! That is, first you saw me naked on the screen, and then you made your choice. (Laughs.)

Maxim: Agnia looked different on the screen, but then some little girl came, very positive, energetic, and easily communicated with everyone. But it was a fleeting acquaintance, the evening ended, and everyone ran about their business. And two weeks later they reported that Agniya Kuznetsova was coming to the project to participate in a charity show.

Agnia: It seems to me that our choreographer Pavel was the first to notice that we liked each other.

Maxim: No wonder he was so often late for training. (Laughs.)

-Where did you go on your first date?

Agnia: The first date, as I said, happened on Easter. I went to church religious procession. The all-night service ended late, at about two in the morning, and Maxim sat and waited for me in the restaurant all this time.

Maxim: Let me explain. We had this tradition with the guys: we celebrated every broadcast of “Dancing with the Stars.” And since dancers are very emotional people, I understood that the party would be noisy. Therefore, I decided to change the location in order to calmly communicate with Agnia alone. I admit, at that moment I didn’t think of anything. I felt that she good man, but I was already in a long-distance relationship. I didn’t want those flights and phone calls again.

Agnia: He waited for me at the bar for three hours, tired and drunk.

- That is, communication did not work out.

Maxim: Why? We had a very good time and had a heart-to-heart talk. Then I accompanied Agnia home and, please note, gallantly left.

Agnia: It couldn’t be otherwise. (Laughs.) And then we went together to Omsk for a film festival, I invited Maxim.

- Agnia, weren’t you scared by the prospect of a long-distance relationship? And now you have a guest marriage.

Agnia: No, under no circumstances would I call our marriage a guest marriage. Of course, the fact that we don’t see each other for a while has its advantages, we get bored, but still we carry on great job over living together. Compared to the first year, we spend much more time together. And then maybe I’ll take a sabbatical. We are thinking about the prospect of living in two countries, working both here, in Russia, and in Iceland. A guest marriage is when people do not live under the same roof, but just meet. We have an apartment in both Moscow and Iceland, and we plan to live outside the city - so we are working hard to create our own family home.

Maxim: For us, it’s probably even good to part ways sometimes. I lived alone for a long time, and the first year turned out to be quite difficult for me; I wanted personal space. I'm unaccustomed to a lot of things.

- Do you mean household habits? Did anything have to be changed?

Maxim: I think I ideal husband! I don't need to be looked after, I'm very independent. But I don’t force Agnia to cook, she herself tries to surprise me with some culinary masterpieces.

Agnia: But at the same time, it goes without saying that the house should be sparkling clean, and that for lunch there will be first course, second course and compote. It seems to me that every man has it genetically that a woman creates comfort, she is the keeper of the home. Many people would generally prefer that the wife not work and take care of the housework. I know couples where the husband is very dissatisfied with the fact that the actress wife spends a lot of time on film expeditions, and there is also a moment of jealousy.

Maxim: In my opinion, jealousy arises from self-doubt. Personally, I don’t understand how you can close a person at home and deprive him of the opportunity for self-realization. Especially if you see that the person is talented. I can say that Agnia loves her profession one hundred percent. And she has so much energy that she definitely needs to develop and be creative. I’m like that myself: I’m souring without work. It seems to me that when a wife sits at home, it is very sad and not modern.

- Do you discuss Agnia’s premieres and her work at home?

Agnia: Maxim somehow doesn’t really express his desire to go to my premieres. My fan is my dad.

Maxim: Yes, I saw all your performances! In fact, I would like Agnia to talk more about her work. I want to know the details: how the audition went, what they told her. And she mutters in two words: “Everything is fine!” or: “I wasn’t approved” - that’s all.

Agnia: Seven years ago, one person said to me: “What should we talk about with you, actresses? You don’t see anything except your profession.” And I remembered it. In fact, I myself have noticed more than once: there are actors who only talk about themselves: where they acted, with which director, at which festivals they received what awards, where they were not approved. This is simply impossible! Need to be interesting conversationalist, with a broad outlook, so that no one can guess what your profession is.

- Agnia, do you see changes in your acting role, the roles that are offered?

Agnia: Yes, I played in the series “The Amber Eye of the Tiger,” which is due to air on Channel One, a family lady who already has children. My “on-screen husband” was Pavel Priluchny. And now I have new project- I will play the mother of a nine-year-old girl. That is, I am moving a little to the rank of heroines who are no longer girls, difficult teenagers, but are approaching the age of thirty. But they are also like that, with nerves, these women.

- And not so long ago you released the comedy “Girls Don’t Give Up” on STS. A completely new genre for you.

Agnia: Yes, this is a comedy, but at the same time it is very lyrical and romantic. This is not a sitcom where you can laugh stupidly. There is such a powerful love story between my heroine Masha and the surgeon played by Kirill Safonov. There can initially be nothing in common between them. They don't even look like each other. She looks up to him both literally and figuratively, he is very tall. Kirill and I are a couple that is not visually edited at all, and this also plays a role. I look at him from below with loving eyes behind glasses, and he is such a heartthrob, a womanizer, a ladies' man.

- Kirill in his role...

Agnia: He is an amazing actor who, as they say, works from sight. He has a wonderful sense of humor and incredible charm, masculine charisma. Of course, you can fall in love with him... on camera... and more. (Laughs.) I understand why our viewers adore him.

- Maxim, at least there was a glimmer of jealousy?

Maxim: No, I trust Agnia. And then, I came and met her from the set.

Agnia: According to the script, Kirill and I didn’t even have kisses. And sometimes I would even like Maxim to be jealous of me. This happens very rarely, you have to play it this way on purpose.

- Agnia, are you jealous when he is so far away with his project?

Agnia: Now he had a show similar to Dancing with the Stars in Iceland. And his partner was Johanna, a singer who took second place at Eurovision. Gorgeous woman, very impressive, beautiful. Moves like a goddess. And I understood that they were in close contact every day for several hours. But I wasn't jealous of Johanna, I was jealous of the project. Moreover, Maxim devotes a lot of time to work and is not involved in our family affairs. Sometimes he can’t even call.

Maxim: As a rule, I try to find time to call my loved ones, but here I deliberately isolated myself and set myself the goal of winning. This is already my third project, and Johanna is a very strong partner, I realized that we could be the first. And it happened! But I had to work hard. I lost eleven kilograms during this time, weighing eighty-three when we started training. On the day of the show, I didn’t pick up the phone at all - I was psyching myself up... And Agnia, of course, made a scene for me a couple of times. But she's right, and I apologized.

Agnia once said in an interview that marriage limits a person, and this is good, because otherwise he will turn into a pig. I laughed a lot.

Agnia: I meant that marriage limits sexual immorality. A husband and wife are focused on each other, making love to each other. With a good wife, a man will not go to the left, looking for some incomprehensible connections. It seems to me that marriage preserves a person, saves him from fornication. There are, of course, men who go out for walks, but this is the same disease as alcoholism, for example.

Maxim: I immediately told Agnia that I don’t see anything criminal in flirting, I like beautiful women. But I always feel the line where I have to stop. When there is trust between spouses, you don’t want to betray. And I myself don’t want to be disappointed. After all, I made my own choice.

Agnia: Oh, Max, if only you weren't such a bore! He likes to educate: don’t smoke, don’t slouch when you’re sitting at the table, you’ve lost your shape, go to the gym, pump up your muscles. There is a dance teacher sitting in it who teaches everyone.

Maxim: I have an excellent family, I follow my parents as an example.

Agnia: Well, I don't think your dad nagged your mom.

Maxim: Mom nags dad. (Laughs.)

Agnia: Maxim's dad - wonderful person, clean, light, positive, with a sense of humor. I can’t imagine him itching: “Lida, why is the plate not standing like that?” I would also marry such a dad. Max is like him only when he has a very good mood. (Laughs.)

- Do you have a recipe for how to quickly reduce the conflict to nothing?

Maxim: Probably the most valuable quality in our couple is that we cool down very quickly. I am for sure.

Agnia: But Agnia is the first to make peace. There is one way to avoid conflict: do not respond with rudeness, but simply grit your teeth and remain silent until Max speaks out. Then it really cools down immediately. Another option: turn it all into a joke, show a sense of humor. Sometimes we manage to quarrel even when we are in different countries. Can you imagine how hard this is? And so we quarrel, and I take Bus, our cat, and dress him up, take a funny photo, and send it to Max. It thaws immediately.

- Agnia, how important are signs of attention from your husband to you?

Agnia: I am spoiled by this, although perhaps not spoiled by affection. Yes, honey, I miss tenderness. I want you to come to me and hug me.

Maxim: You yourself admit how difficult it is for you to make concessions. And I feel this inner power. Be gentler yourself.

Agnia: But he often gives bouquets and always greets me with flowers after the performance. And I know that it will be something special, not banal roses. And my husband doesn’t refuse me when it comes to gifts.

- Some time ago they wrote that Agnia was expecting her first child. How did you react to such publications?

Agnia: In the first year of our life together, I relaxed somewhat: I worked a little, we traveled. I just ate, slept, rested and ended up gaining a few kilos. She weighed fifty-nine kilograms with a height of one hundred and sixty, and now she is about forty-nine. My cheeks didn’t even fit into the frame. (Laughs.) I remember that I was starring in the war film “The Dawns Here Are Quiet,” and there was this text: “The sergeant major says: eat, otherwise you’ll be as thin as a rook.” This text had to be cut out. (Laughs.) And when Maxim and I came to social events, I tried to wear a loose-fitting dress to hide my fullness. That's why everyone decided that I was pregnant. As you can see, not yet, but we strive to have a real family, with children. God willing, we will have a child. In general, in my opinion, the family should be large. I understand that I am already thirty-three years old and I am unlikely to give birth to three or four children. And since I am against artificial manipulation, I am thinking about taking a child from an orphanage. I admire the couples who adopt children in difficult situations and raise them as their own. This is a great thing. No wonder there is a proverb: “You don’t build a temple, you build an orphan.” For God this is the greatest and most useful thing that can be done. For me, all children are the same, they all need love.

Maxim: In any case, I want my children. Agnusha, you will see what it’s like to be a mother, and then you will decide whether to take another baby for adoption.

Agnia: Still, it is necessary that the child is not alone in the family. My brother and I are ten years apart in age. When I left for Moscow, he was just beginning to grow up. Only now, when he turned twenty-three, did we start communicating. We have a very close relationship, but if only I had a sister... And Maxim has a very powerful clan in Altai: brother, cousins, nephews - there is a huge family there.

- Are you sociable people?

Agnia: Max very much, I don't.

Maxim: I really suffer from this. Sometimes you want to meet with friends, chat, but there is so little time for your family, so you have to sacrifice something. I’m looking forward to a new project for our country life: that’s where we’ll have barbecues and invite friends.
