Childhood and youth of Marat Basharov

Marat Basharov was born in Moscow into a simple working-class family from Northern Izmailovo: his mother worked as a cook, his father worked as a plumber.

As a child, Marat had an obedient disposition. But as soon as he went to first grade, he immediately became known as a hooligan: he was constantly given two marks for his behavior, and once he was almost expelled. But it was at school that the future actor met his best friends, with whom he still maintains relationships. Their opinion and presence in life is still very valuable for Marat.

The tomboy's parents found an outlet for his stupid energy and sent him to the figure skating sports section. A little later, this helped him achieve quite good success in hockey (Marat trained at the Sports Palace in Sokolniki). The young man enjoyed attending freestyle wrestling and football classes.

In 1991, graduate Marat Basharov passed a competition for the Faculty of Law of Lomonosov Moscow State University. And at the same time, his half-brother, knowledgeable in art and working as a theater critic at that time, invited him to try out for the small role of Duke Cecil in the production of “The Canterville Ghost,” which was staged at Sovremennik. The director just needed a young guy. Surprisingly, Marat was immediately approved for two whole seasons.

Having become acquainted with the underside of the acting profession and experiencing incomparable emotions from going on stage. In 1993, he dropped out of Moscow State University and applied to the Theater School. Shchepkina. To the audition, wanting to distinguish himself from other applicants, he brought a balalaika and dashingly danced to its accompaniment, thereby winning over the selection committee.

Daughter of Marat Basharov - Amelie Basharova

Marat Basharov’s daughter, Amelie Basharova, was born in 2004, and Elizaveta Krutsko became her mother. The baby received a beautiful name in honor of the heroine of the French film of the same name.

The girl studies at school, she loves to swim, draw and attends music school. She roller skates and bicycles, loves to play snowballs and go down the slide. Enjoys visiting water parks and amusement parks.

Amelie moved to live with Marat and his new wife, since her mother had her third baby. She dearly adores her brother, and also communicates well with Elizaveta Shevyrkova. By the way, the girl recently got a boyfriend, Andrei, who shows her quite childish attentions.

Actor career

During his student days, the aspiring actor starred in commercials and also worked as a watchman in a clothing store. And Marat Basharov’s film debut took place in 1994 - he got a tiny role as a tank driver in Nikita Mikhalkov’s psychological drama “Burnt by the Sun.” Then his last name was not even included in the credits.

In 1998, Marat graduated from “Sliver” and was immediately invited to work in several theaters. But the young man decided not to join the staff as a theater actor, because he did not want to become attached to the theater and make himself dependent on the will of the chief director.

Just in the year of graduation, Nikita Mikhalkov decided to give the young actor a place in the cast of the film “The Barber of Siberia.” It is the role of cadet Polievsky that Basharov considers his first outstanding work. After hard work on the set of “The Barber of Siberia,” Marat developed a fairly close and warm relationship with Mikhalkov. By the way, he calls him his “film dad.” Friendship was also established with Oleg Menshikov, who played the cadet Tolstoy.

In 1999, Marat starred in “Voroshilovsky Shooter” by Stanislav Govorukhin. The actor tried on the image of a villain - he played the scumbag rapist Zvorygin. At the same time, the failed lawyer was involved in the theatrical production “Woe from Wit” directed by Oleg Menshikov.

Real fame knocked on the door of Marat Basharov in 2000 after a series of memorable roles: in the film “Wedding” by Pavel Lungin (village boy Mishka) and the television series “Border. Taiga Novel" by Alexander Mitta (Lieutenant Stolbov).

The actor spoke especially warmly about his latest work. According to him, working with such a legendary director is happiness for any actor. It’s also nice that during the filming of “Border,” Basharov’s childhood dream came true - he played a “war game” in a real forest, with real weapons and in real uniform. His on-screen partner was the beautiful Olga Budina.

But in Pavel Lungin’s melodrama “The Wedding,” Marat initially got the role of the drunkard Garkusha, a friend of the main character. But Basharov literally fell in love with Krapivin’s character and clung to Lungin with requests to give this role to him. The director gave up and tried out Basharov.

“I stubbornly resisted and insisted on trying out. He grabbed onto Lungin with what is called a death grip. And there were a lot of tests. In the end, it was me and another actor left. Then Pavel asked Maria Mironova, who had already been cast as the main character, with whom she would like to play, that is, who exactly is more drawn to Mishka. The girl thought and chose me. It turns out that I pulled out this role with my own teeth,” said the actor. By the way, at the Cannes Film Festival the film “The Wedding” earned a special prize “For the acting ensemble.”

After “The Wedding” and “Borders,” which premiered six months apart, critics began vying with each other to talk about a new star of Russian cinema. Basharov overnight became a sought-after actor. In 2000, the famous Eldar Ryazanov invited him to the film “Quiet Pools”, then the actor appeared in the TV series “Cobra”, “The Ideal Couple”, and the drama “Oligarch”, where he played the corrupt investigator Koshkin.

In 2003, Marat was given the role of Mitya Gridnev in The Turkish Gambit. Basharov was in seventh heaven, as he had always been a great connoisseur of the work of Boris Akunin.

A landmark work in Basharov’s filmography was the drama “72 Meters” (2004), where he played an officer of the submarine “Slavyanka”, which crashed at depth.

Film career

In 1998, Basharov graduated from college and immediately received an offer from Mikhalkov to star in another of his films, “The Barber of Siberia.” The role of cadet Polievsky, who maintains friendly relations with the main character, became the actor’s first notable work.

In 1999, another master of Russian cinema, Stanislav Govorukhin, invited Basharov to the dramatic film “Voroshilovsky Shooter”. Marat played a negative hero.

In 2000, television viewers glued themselves to the screens, carefully watching a love story against the backdrop of border guard service in the TV series “Border. Taiga novel." Director Alexander Mitta assembled a unique cast and skillfully showed the public beautiful natural views.

Marat Basharov worked for the first time with leading actors - Alexey Guskov, Mikhail Efremov, Renata Litvinova. The role of Ivan Stolbov became stellar for him.

In the same year, Pavel Lungin directed Maria Mironova and Marat Basharov in the leading roles in the film “Wedding”. Basharov literally begged for a chance to film, which Lungin later did not regret. The film received a positive response from the audience, and at the Cannes festival Fr.

Since 2000, the actor continued to actively act in films. He worked with Eldar Ryazanov in the film “Quiet Whirlpools”, played Mitya Gridnev in the high-profile film “The Turkish Gambit”, based on Boris Akunin’s novel about Fandorin.

Fate itself brought Basharov to the conclusion that he was destined to become an actor. Marat Basharov in his youth, becoming a law student, and being a passionate and determined person, went to the theater to audition. The director needed a young guy for a small role and, thanks to his charisma and talent, the student was cast in a play called “The Canterville Ghost.”

Having learned what the acting profession is, Marat decided to enter the Higher Theater School named after M. S. Shchepkin. Knowing how old Basharov is (today the actor is 43 years old), it’s hard to believe that he played in almost 80 films, not counting his work in the theater and participation as a presenter in such television projects as:

  • "The fight of extrasensories";
  • "Mr. and Mrs. Media";
  • "Glacial period";
  • "Ice and Fire."

The most famous works of that time in cinema were:

  • "Border. Taiga novel."
  • "The Siberian Barber".

Personal life of Marat Basharov

For a long time, Marat Basharov was in a civil marriage with Lisa Krutsko. Their relationship was sealed in accordance with Islamic customs - the reading of nikah. In 2004, their common daughter, Amelie Basharova, was born. In 2009, due to the romance that broke out between Basharov and Tatyana Navka, Elizaveta broke up with her husband, but they subsequently continued to communicate.

The affair with Navka did not receive a logical continuation, and over the next few years, Basharov was more than once credited with relationships with Svetlana Khodchenkova, Miss Russia 2010 Alisa Krylova, and swimming instructor Anna Sazonova.

In 2014, the philanderer of Russian cinema formalized his official relationship with Ekaterina Arkharova (niece of Emmanuel Vitorgan). The wedding took place in May, and already in October the media was full of headlines: “Marat Basharov beats his wife!”

Ekaterina was taken to the hospital with numerous injuries. Having recovered from her injuries, she came to Andrei Malakhov’s studio, where she confirmed the fact of the beatings, and also spoke about the attacks of cruelty that her husband suffered from, and about his addiction to alcohol. Soon the couple divorced.

Marat Basharov’s new life partner was Elizaveta Shevyrkova, a bank employee with whom the actor had a fleeting romance even before his relationship with Arkharova. The girl was a passionate fan of Basharov - she was the first to write to him on a social network asking for a meeting. Elizabeth is 13 years younger than her chosen one. In September 2020, they formalized their relationship in one of the capital's registry offices. The actor’s close friends, Alexander and Ekaterina Strizhenov, were seen at the ceremony.

The common child of Marat and Elizabeth, son Marcel, was born in July 2020.

In May 2020, Shevyrkova made a confession. According to her, for some time Basharov controlled himself and was very nice, even when he was drinking. But when she was three months pregnant, he drank, lost his temper, and tried to strangle her. While intoxicated, the actor allowed himself both physical and emotional violence: he claimed that Catherine was ugly, that he was with her only because of the child and pity. The girl forgave him and put up with his antics for some time, but when Basharov broke her nose, and at that time a child was sitting in Catherine’s arms, she packed her things and left.

By religion, Marat Basharov is a Sunni Muslim. Off the set, he is very outgoing, assertive and confident. He is still interested in sports, plays hockey, football and tennis, but at the same time he likes to drink beer and dumplings for a snack. The actor prefers a sporty style in clothes, and values ​​understanding and honesty in women. One of the main advantages of a man is that he does not feel dependent on money. But he has a fear: the actor is afraid of loneliness.

Basharov loves Russian fairy tales and claims that he would be very happy to work for free in their film adaptations. He likes domestic films, in particular, he has watched the film “The Cranes Are Flying” many times.

Family and children of Marat Basharov

The family and children of Marat Basharov are a source of his pride, since the guy was brought up in strict traditions. He does not hide the fact that he is a Tatar by nationality and a Muslim by religion. At the same time, Marat and all his relatives profess such a branch of faith as Sunniism.

Marat Basharov - films and biography of the actor, personal life and relationships with wives

The young man always considered a member of his family not only his parents and stepbrothers, but also his “film dad” Nikita Mikhalkov, who gave him a start in big cinema.

Marat has few children; he had two children from different women, whom he sees constantly. He tries to devote every free minute to the kids and tells them Russian folk tales, which he has been studying for a long time and wants to star in film adaptations for free.

The actor has a daughter, Amelie, from his first civil marriage. The girl was born on September 6, 2004. After the birth of Elizabeth's child, Amelie expressed a desire to live with her father.

The 14-year-old daughter and Marat’s young wife developed a very trusting relationship, so the girl now lives with her father’s new family.

In his last marriage, Basharov had a son, Marcel. The boy was born on July 28, 2020. Elizabeth does not work and devotes herself entirely to raising her son and maintaining home comfort.

Marat Basharov now

In the spring of 2020, Basharov admitted that he beat all his wives. Because of this (and also against the backdrop of the scandal with Regina Todorenko, whose careless statement started a discussion about domestic violence), a petition began collecting signatures online demanding that Basharov be deprived of the title of Honored Artist.

Basharov ignores such statements, but it is obvious that the scandals are affecting his popularity. He is rarely seen in major film projects. Except that in 2020 he appeared in the Tatar film “Mulla”, and in 2020 he played the main role in the film produced in Armenia “I will give you victory”. However, he continues to lead the “Battle of Psychics.” According to the producers of the project, no one is going to remove Basharov from this position.

Instagram and Wikipedia Marat Basharov

Marat Basharov has Instagram and Wikipedia, but not all of them are official. The Wikipedia article, which is dedicated to Marat, contains information about childhood, parents, spouses and loved ones, as well as filmography and participation in television projects.

There are a great many Instagram pages maintained on behalf of the actor and TV presenter, but many of them are fake. That is why Marat asks not to take all the information posted on them as a constant, especially regarding the personal reception of psychics from the “Battle of Psychics” program.

“There are a lot of Tatars among Moscow traffic cops”

—Are you comfortable in your country?

- Undoubtedly. At the same time, each of us dreams of a “village house” somewhere in Italy. But we have our own homeland, where Tatars, Russians, Chuvashs, Ukrainians live... And I personally feel comfortable here. No, of course, there are situations when you’re freaking out, you’re driving down the street in a car - they’re trying to push you aside, press you, everyone is kind of angry. We smile very little. It's a shame that this happens.

I was in Johannesburg, in South Africa, where everyone is smiling. All! Let’s say such a scene is fictional, I’ll say it right away, but I’ll convey the mood.

You’re standing at a traffic light, a bandit runs up, takes out a gun and points it at your head with a smile: “Get out, please!” And you leave with a smile - please! He says with a smile: “Thank you!” You answer with a smile: “Please! Bon Voyage!". All is well. Everything is pretty much like this.

For example, in Moscow, we have a clear indicator of the manifestation of “Tatarness” - traffic cops. There are a lot of Tatars among them. This is actually a green light! Showed his license - “Go ahead!”
