Marat Basharov is a famous Russian actor and TV presenter. He is an honored artist of the Republic of Tatarstan, awarded the youth award "Triumph", the State Award of the Russian Federation in the field of cinematography. But his main merit is his impeccable acting skills. He has more than 70 works to his credit, and most of them are included in the golden film fund of the country.
Early years
Marat Alimzhanovich was born on August 22, 1974 in the capital. His family had nothing to do with art: his father worked as a plumber, his mother was a cook. The only guide to the world of theater was his brother, who once held the post of critic there.
In childhood, Marat was not distinguished by creative talent. The boy had a hooligan character and was a real rebel. Teachers constantly complained about his behavior, he even got on the list for expulsion from school. To let the guy's energy in the right direction, his parents enrolled him in figure skating classes. This developed into a serious passion for hockey. Along with this, he played soccer and was fond of freestyle wrestling.
Being a high school student, Basharov planned to become a lawyer. In 1991, he entered the law faculty of Moscow State University named after Lomonosov. But it was during this period that his brother "pulled" him to the side of art: offered to audition for the play "The Canterville Ghost" in the theater "Sovremennik". Marat agreed. To everyone's surprise, he was approved for 2 seasons at once!
The unknown world of actors absorbed the boy. He fell in love with the stage. Having gained determination, he left Moscow State University and brought the documents to Shchepkin. In the school he was accepted at the first attempt, because his talent and artistry could not be overlooked.
Studenthood and first steps in the world of art
In parallel with his studies, Marat went to the stage of "Sovremennik", starred in advertising and moonlighted as a watchman. The first movie debut was so insignificant that the name was not even listed in the credits. The movie was called "Weary of the Sun" Nikita Mikhalkov. But Basharov was not upset, because any experience is useful.
Being a certified actor, the guy was in no hurry to accept invitations to become a theater artist. He did not want to depend on one director, get attached to the stage. But he did not give up the theater completely: "Woe from Wit", "Marry you should, Barin!", "Sublimation of Love" - these productions would not have been so successful without Basharov. However, the movie industry attracted him much more.
The first major role he got in the movie "The Barber of Siberia". Another collaboration with Mikhalkov brought Marat success. He brilliantly coped with the character, "lit up" in front of the audience, received excellent reviews from critics. He began to invite him to shoot and other directors. In 1999, Basharov reinforced his success by participating in the cult film "Voroshilovsky shooter".
Career growth
With the advent of the 2000s, Marat was sprinkled with offers. He began to actively shoot, replenishing his creative biography with diverse roles. Among the most memorable characters were Mishka from the movie "Wedding", Lieutenant Stolbov from the movie "Border. Taiga romance", Koshkin from the drama "Oligarch", Mitya from "Turkish Gambit" and others.
His roles are interesting, they are psychologically complex. The best are considered to be military characters. He easily reincarnated into officers, lieutenants or simple soldiers. Each portrayed so soulfully that critics called him a new star of cinematography.
Marat Basharov always carefully chooses for himself images. He knows the price of his talent and does not barter for cheap serials. That is why each of his appearances on the screen indicates a high-quality movie.
Becoming a popular actor, he began to accept invitations to different programs. Thanks to his childhood passion for figure skating, he participated in "ice" TV projects and even won the first prize in a pair with Tatiana Navka.
Since 2009, he began to lead the "Battle of the Psychics". And in 2012 he took third place in the show "Dancing with the Stars".
Marital status
Marat Basharov is a man whose personal life is often brought to the public eye and discussion.
The first official marriage he concluded with Elizaveta Krutsko. She accepted Islam and gave birth to his daughter Amelie. But in 2009, the actor began a relationship with Tatiana Navka, and the marriage broke up. Nevertheless, they did not stop communicating and continued to cooperate.
In the next few years, he was attributed a lot of novels. But the artist had a serious relationship with the actress Ekaterina Arkharova. In 2014 they went to the registry office. Six months later, the whole country was hit by a scandal: Marat in a state of alcoholic intoxication severely beat his wife. He was subjected to universal condemnation, even forced on one of the TV shows to publicly apologize. But Catherine did not forgive him, and in 2015 they divorced.
In the press for a long time discussed his deed, attributed alcohol addiction and attacks of aggression. It is said that some directors even stopped cooperating with him because of this. Which, however, had little effect on popularity.
In 2016, Basharov found a new chosen one, who soon became his wife. With Elizaveta Shevyrkova they met on the Internet. The romance developed rapidly, she moved to live with him and became pregnant. In the fall of the same year, she gave birth to a son Marcel. Officially registered their marriage only a year later. The girl was repeatedly reproached that she married a man who is able to raise his hand on a woman. But Elizabeth hoped that he corrected himself. But no: after three years, she filed for divorce and only then admitted that all this time she endured beatings from her husband.
