Soviet and Russian film director, actor, screenwriter and producer, shared the terrible truth about your health
Mikhalkov noted that for a long time was silent because he considered it his personal matter and did not want to make the problem public.
He notes that when the first symptoms appeared, he didn’t even understand what was happening.
But suddenly Mikhalkov had sharp pains in the kidney area.
“In the evening, when I went to bed, everything was fine. And in the morning I could barely get out of bed, it hurt so much. I immediately went to the doctors,” he says.
A decision was made to undergo hospital treatment.
“I won’t say what price they charged, but it was more than all reasonable restrictions. And of course, past the cash register. Officially, the procedure was done for pennies. With hindsight, I now understand that it was all such a “scam” for money, with my life at stake. But when you can die, logic fails,” says Mikhalkov.
And it helped, not for long.
“Then the situation developed completely horribly. Pains appeared in my heart, my blood pressure began to fluctuate wildly, although this had never happened before, my head hurt terribly, my legs began to swell. Sometimes I couldn't get out of bed the whole day. At the same time, I was constantly seeing doctors, regularly spending a lot of money on expensive drugs, pouring handfuls of pills into myself. And fell to pieces every day. To be honest, at some point I thought I was going to die like this. There was not the slightest improvement in the situation,” recalls Mikhalkov.
“Then I was desperate and agreed. The operation took 3.5 hours. In the process, a huge worm and a mass of small larvae were taken out of me. It looked so disgusting that I couldn't put it into words. When they pulled out a 9-meter worm from me, I thought it was all over. But in vain,” says the actor.
While he was in the hospital on IVs, everything was fine. But literally a few days after returning home, everything started all over again.
“And a month later I was again lying half dead in bed all day,” says Mikhalkov.
“As for those doctors who siphoned money out of me, they have been arrested and are now testifying. It turned out that a whole large group was operating medical workers, from various institutions that profited from people. That's why I want to warn people to be careful. If you've done this with enough famous person, then I’m scared to think what they do to those who are defenseless against these scum from medicine,” Mikhalkov summed up the story.
He was hospitalized and underwent surgery. According to him close friend screenwriter Alexander Adabashyan, the director had an “unpleasant sports injury.”
The famous Russian director, Oscar winner Nikita Mikhalkov was hospitalized and underwent surgery. Screenwriter and director Alexander Adabashyan, with whom Mikhalkov worked on several films, spoke about this.
According to Adabashyan, nothing terrible happened to Nikita Sergeevich.
“He is sick now, he had an operation. Nothing tragic is expected, but there was an unpleasant injury of a sporting nature,” the “360” screenwriter quotes.
Mikhalkov's press service confirmed the information and stated that the operation was planned.
“Nikita Sergeevich actually underwent a planned operation some time ago due to an old sports injury,” RIA Novosti quotes representatives of the artist. - He is currently recovering from surgery and is actively involved in his Academy of Cinematic and theatrical arts, whose acting workshop finished accepting students last week.”
“He’s not sick, everything’s fine. There’s no need to worry,” Nadezhda told the Zvezda TV channel, adding that in this situation the assistant director should also be trusted.
Earlier, Nikita Sergeevich’s personal assistant reported that Mikhalkov simply left Moscow after election day.
Mikhalkov was recently in Chelyabinsk, where he attended a professional boxing tournament. Eyewitnesses noted that the director was walking on crutches.
At 72 years old, Mikhalkov continues to work actively, which sometimes leads to injuries. In March of this year, information appeared that Nikita Sergeevich was hospitalized after he fell and hit his head during a work assignment. He had to seek help from doctors, but experts did not find any serious injuries on Mikhalkov.
Nadezhda Mikhalkova's relationship with her star father still leaves much to be desired. A split in the family occurred back in 2011, when Nadezhda married director Rezo Gigienishvili. Mikhalkov then openly expressed dislike for his daughter’s choice, after which their relationship noticeably deteriorated. In 2017, Mikhalkova divorced her husband, but she has not yet been able to finally establish a dialogue with her father.
Moreover, Nikita Sergeevich was never seen on the set of Nadezhda Mikhalkova’s debut film “The Lost Place.” As Nadezhda herself said, she did not invite her father to the shooting.
Mikhalkova also said that her directing experience “taught her a lot.” Now, according to Nadezhda, she will try never to upset the directors with whom she is filming. She will try to play “well, clearly and talentedly” and enjoy working in any conditions.
“The Lost Place” is a youth horror film about an urban legend about a “lost place” in a certain movie theater. Anyone who buys a ticket to this place is doomed to death. Nobody takes this horror story seriously until a series of terrible murders forces the main characters to remember the legend.
She played one of the main roles in the film by Nadezhda Mikhalkova elder sister Anna . The script was written by the well-known brothers Oleg and Vladimir Presnyakov, who became famous and in demand after Kirill Serebrennikov’s 2006 film “Playing the Victim,” in which Anna Mikhalkova also played.
Last full-length Feature Film 72-year-old Nikita Mikhalkov’s “Sunstroke” was released in 2014. Now the director has two projects in his plans - “Chocolate Revolver” and “Griboyedov”. IN this moment Mikhalkov is working closely on the first of them. The script for “Chocolate Revolver” was also written by the Presnyakov brothers. The film is a dramatic story about how the daughter of a prominent Russian director, through the fault of her father, became a victim of a terrorist attack in Cannes.
As for “Griboedov,” this is a more typical project for the director. The script for the future film was written by Mikhalkov himself in collaboration with the already mentioned Alexander Adabashyan. As the title suggests, the film will tell about the life of the great Russian writer and diplomat. However, Mikhalkov encountered certain difficulties. A year ago, he said in an interview with Gazeta.Ru that the film crew was ready to film, but the author wanted to film on location in Istanbul or Tehran. According to the director, considering latest events, he "wouldn't want to put the crew in danger."
At the end of September, the international event “Eurasian Bridge” took place for the third time. This film festival was invented and brought to life by Nikita Sergeevich Mikhalkov. The pearl of Crimea, Yalta, was chosen as its venue. - Yalta, Bunin, Chekhov - life was wonderful here, the events of “The Lady with the Dog” took place here. And after some time it suddenly became clear that all this (Chekhov, memories, theater, rain, sun) was in another country. Thank God it happened the way it happened. And we know that the theater, and Chekhov’s memory, and Bunin, and the rain, and the sun here in Yalta have again become Russian,” Nikita Mikhalkov said a year ago at the opening of the film festival.
This year the master was awaited in Yalta with great impatience. However, as Komsomolskaya Pravda already wrote, the film festival took place without its creator. The director was unable to come due to health problems. Meanwhile, information that Mikhalkov was unwell appeared in early September. What exactly happened to the filmmaker was unknown.
The day before, October 4, Nikita Sergeevich opened a new academic year at the Academy named after him. After talking with students and another five hundred listeners, Mikhalkov spoke with reporters. When asked by Komsomolskaya Pravda about why he could not come to Crimea and how his health was, he even joked. “Unfortunately, I had to have two surgeries on my hip. And I’m walking, limping around Moscow,” the director smiles. “I hope I’ll get back into shape.” Two operations in a month, and the month has not yet passed. This serious shock. But I’m in line and I hope that this did not affect what we are doing today.
We couldn’t help but ask the maestro whether those who come to the Nikita Mikhalkov Academy as students have a chance. Does the director look for actors for master classes? “I don’t look for actors at master classes,” he explains. - When we create a script, we, as a rule, write it for specific actors with rare exceptions. In general, I can’t stand auditions; it’s humiliating for an artist. When an actor auditions, everyone smiles at him, and then they don’t call him again. I try not to traumatize my acting brothers and sisters.
