The star of the film “Crew” Irina Akulova now lives forgotten by everyone, how did it happen?

As is often the case, one role of an actor is identified with him throughout his life. Even more often, the character is the complete opposite of the actor. Such a cruel joke fate played with the performer of the role of Alevtina Nenarokova in the “Crew”. Despite the many positive characters, the audience Irina Akulova Remembered manipulator and hysterical wife of the pilot Nenarokov. Although in life she was a completely different person.



Irina Akulova This year the actress turned 72 years old. And today she lives in a small modest house in her native Kineshma. Its main wards are cats. The son is a rare visitor to his mother, because he considers rural life a stranger to himself. Husbands are long gone, as are wonderful roles.

Despite a successful career, Akulova did not plan to be an actress. She dreamed of ballet. But the angina suffered in childhood did not allow Irina to study ballet.

The parents did not believe in the success of their daughter, but they did not prohibit it. Therefore, Irina immediately after school submitted documents to the Moscow Art Theater School. To everyone’s surprise, I got there the first time.

And in the third year she already played in the play “Valentine and Valentine” on the stage of “Contemporary”. Irina received offers from directors every year. She starred in the best films of the time. But the fateful film for her was “The Crew”.



Instagram/@sputnikkinozritelya The cast was really talented and famous at the time. But, as often happens, real scandals and love intrigues took place on the set. Alexandra Yakovlev was in love with one of the members of the film crew, and the feelings were mutual. However, Irina Akulova interfered in their relationship.

As Irina herself later said, she did not understand what a moment of madness it was. Perhaps the reason for this behavior was the recent divorce from her first husband, and she wanted to console the woman’s pride. As a result, Alexandra Yakovleva has not even greeted Irina Akulova for more than 40 years.

Whether the fate of Irina was such, whether it is a punishment for the pain inflicted on another, but none of the three marriages of Irina can not be called happy. Every husband was an ordinary traitor. A proud Akulova could not forgive the betrayal and just left.

The first husband of Irina was the actor Vyacheslav Zholobov. They met as students, and all the girls of the course were jealous of Irina. Vyacheslav was handsome and talented. But it turned out that behind the external beauty were the traits of a jealous and a tyrant. This manifested itself when he began to come to all the rehearsals and control where the hand of Irina’s partner lies.

And then he offered his wife to live with her son with her parents in Kineshma. They say that fresh air, natural products and nature will benefit them. He promised to come every weekend and visit his family.

Over time, however, visits became increasingly rare. Later, Irina learned that Vyacheslav had an affair with a young artist on tour. She did not make scandals and silently filed for divorce, putting her husband’s suitcase out the door.

During this period, Irina resigned from the “Contemporary” and moved to work in the Moscow Art Theater. There she met Peter Smidovich. He began to actively care for the actress. Irina was in no hurry to start a new relationship after the divorce, especially Peter was not suitable for the role of her husband.

But somehow unnoticed for herself, Irina lived with Peter Smidovich for 3 years. And one day I found out about his mistress. He did not hesitate and filed for divorce.

Irina’s second divorce was helped by her best friend. Irina took the help of Nikolai Puzyrev, and soon they married. There was no family happiness in this marriage. After six months together, Puzyrev was offered a lucrative contract in Australia. When he returned, he told his wife that another woman was waiting for him in Sydney. Irina filed for divorce despite her husband’s plea. As the actress later found out, Nikolai never married an Australian bride and lives on the suburban dacha.



Instagram / @sputnikkinozritelya Failures in her personal life drove the actress into a deep depression. In the theater, she was not offered roles due to disagreements with the artistic director of the Moscow Art Theater Tatiana Doronina. And Akulova went looking for herself. She attended hypnosis sessions, did palmistry, listened to Chumak's lectures.

After long ordeals, the actress decides to go home to Kineshma. I saw an ad for a house sale. I went to Moscow, withdrew all the money and bought a small house with a garden. She grows vegetables and fruits in her garden.

Fate gave Irina one last chance to start a family. In the early 2000s, she met a man from a nearby village. Yuri Milovanov helped the actress with the repair of the house and garden. Then he offered to live together, and Irina agreed.

But then the girlfriend told Irina that Yuri in Barnaul has a legitimate wife and daughter. The man did not deny this, but added that they have long been strangers with his wife. But Irina’s pride did not stop, and she decided to break this relationship. And six months later, Yuri died of a heart attack all alone.

Today, actress Irina Akulova lives in her small house with cats. Sometimes her son comes to see her. And she shares all her troubles with her tailed friends. “They certainly will not betray,” the actress is sure.
