The popularity of Anastasia Makarova
Anastasia Makarova gained popularity after filming in the television series "Efrosinya" in 2010, aired on the channel "Russia 1". The broadcast began on February 28, 2011. More than 20 young actresses participated in the samples, but the directors Oleg Maslennikov and Maxim Mokrushev made a bet on Nastya and did not lose. Unknown performers next to such venerable masters as Valery Zolotukhin contributed their charm and charm to the series. The actress doubted whether to leave her favorite theater for such a long time, and only participation in the filming of Zolotukhin influenced her choice. A day after the final answer about who will be the main character, the actress got into a remote Ukrainian village, which depicted a taiga Siberian village in the script. The shooting took place in rather difficult conditions and became a real baptism of fire for a young actress. In addition to acting, Anastasia required endurance, strength and physical health. The heroine is a 20-year-old young girl who grew up and lived all her life in the taiga, but at the same time independent, educated and feminine. She miraculously escaped after a helicopter crash and grew up raised by hermits. At the same time, the girl remains by herself in any situations. She is stubborn and independent and always defends her opinion. When discussing the role, the actress often entered into discussions with directors when she felt that the image looks unconvincing. The film crew tried to make the film look like a real social project, interesting to all segments of the population.
Continuation of Euphrosyne
During the filming in the period from 2010 to 2013, the actress and her heroine simply established a mystical connection. Events in the life of one are fantastically interwoven with the life of another. So, almost simultaneously they became mothers. When the actress became pregnant, Efrosinier in the series had to repeat her fate. At one time, Anastasia fell incredibly tired of filming after giving birth. Each season is more than 250 episodes and it is clear why this happened to her. And only the idea that many residents of the surrounding villages can improve their standard of living through participation in the crowd, kept Makarov from taking this step. Later two more seasons were filmed: “Euphrosyne. Continuation "(2011) and" Efrosinya. Taiga love ”(2012).
Personal life
The husband of Anastasia Makarova is businessman Nikita Kazakov, general director of a large company manufacturing cleaning products (Ecoproduct-21). He dreamed of explaining himself at the Eiffel Tower in Paris, but the lovers did not receive a visa for the trip, and went to Bali. On September 18, their wedding took place on the island, and the actress gave birth to her son Elisha during the filming, December 24, 2010. Makarova had to take the baby with her already from three weeks. March 24, 2013 Anastasia Makarova gave birth to a second child, who was named Zakhar. Parents are not eager to raise their sons in the metropolis, so they bought a large house in the Moscow village of Zhestovo, which they equip for a comfortable life. Having spent all her childhood on Sakhalin Island, the actress is very fond of nature and always tries to get out of Moscow at the first opportunity.
After filming in Euphrosyne, the popularity of a novice actress and the love of the audience for her increased incredibly. In addition to the series, the actress plays in the Chekhov Moscow Art Theater. Anastasia Makarova sings and dances great and dreams of staging her musical performance, opening a children's center or studio, as she loves to work with children. Makarova is a convinced vegetarian, and for 6 years now she has not eaten meat. I really like the actress to visit the old temples in Yaroslavl and feel the grace emanating from them.
