Career in the cinema of Natalia Vavilova began quite unexpectedly and successfully. She lived on Leninsky Prospekt in Moscow, not far from the famous Mosfilm. When the girl was 14 years old, assistant directors approached her right on the street and offered to star in a movie. So the creative path began, young Natasha appeared in a small role on the screens in the film novel “Such High Mountains”.
Continuation of an extraordinary story
It would seem that on this movie adventure could have ended, because the girl did not have the appropriate education. But the continuation followed exactly two years later. Once, assistant director Menshov came to the lesson. He was looking for a girl Natasha with big eyes. Vavilova again appeared on the set, when her classmates passed exams for the certificate of maturity. The famous artist Dmitry Kharatyan became a partner in the film “Raffle”. The couple looked very good, they predicted a great future.
But parents strictly forbade their daughter to appear in the movies. After all, a girl from a decent family, according to their conviction, should receive a serious profession. Vavilova began secretly from them to attend lessons for future actors in the workshop of Evgeny Matveev, which was located at VGIK. And in 1979, she successfully completed her studies.
The story of one role
Actress Natalya Vavilova became famous after the premiere of the film “Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears,” where she played the role of Alexandra. The path for this role was quite difficult. Strict parents ran out of patience when they learned about the upcoming shoot. Natalia came under house arrest, she was even forbidden to answer the phone.
Menshov was in complete despair. With great difficulty, I managed to get permission to make a film. The loss of the actress was to be a complete failure. Heavy artillery had to be used: the Batavov himself went with the director Menshov to visit the Vavilovs. And Natalia’s parents could not resist their idol and let her daughter go on set.
The film brought Oscar to the Lesser, and actress Natalya Vavilova became famous. After such a success, Natalya Dmitrievna began to receive offers from directors and starred in dozens of romantic melodramas, tragicomedy.
Personal life
On the set of the famous film “Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears,” another important event occurred. Actress Natalya Vavilova met her fate - director Gasparov Samvel, who was 20 years older than her. In a happy marriage, the couple have been living for many years.
The tragic incident on the set
The biography of Natalia Vavilova, an actress beloved by many viewers, was overshadowed by pain. To shoot in the historical film "Nikolai Podvoisky" it was necessary to learn how to stay in the saddle. Vavilova for a long time attended training at the equestrian school, because before that she did not even have to be near the horse.
After some time, actress Natalya Vavilova felt pretty confident in the saddle. But one day at a rehearsal, the hippodrome employee made a mistake and brought out another horse, whose back, as it turned out later, was injured. When Natalya Dmitrievna sat on it, the horse stood on its hind legs from pain and swiftly carried a rider. The actress struggled to stay in the saddle. As soon as the occasion was weakened, there was simply no strength to hold on anymore, the horse felt it and threw the rider to the ground. And as a result, a spinal injury.
Betrayal
It seemed that forever spent Natalia in the hospital. The director understood that he was to blame for the injury to the actress and literally begged to hide this incident, promising to wait for her full recovery. But a week later, on the set, a replacement for Vavilova appeared.
Such an unfair attitude was a real shock for the actress. With great difficulty, I managed to cope with physical pain. But emotionally for a long time I could not recover: mental trauma was more serious. Betrayal is always a pain. But Natalya Dmitrievna did not give up, she coped with difficulties.
Beloved husband support
The spouse of the actress helped out of the state of apathy. He abandoned all his affairs and devoted himself completely to his beloved wife. Samvel persuaded Natalia to go on a trip to Europe. Only there, far from home, Vavilova was able to forget the insult and betrayal. After returning from the cruise, the final decision was made to leave the world of cinema.
Recent Shooting
But the audience still had the opportunity to see the actress on the screen. She starred in her husband’s film "Vultures on the Roads" in the title role. The crisis had already affected the cinema at that time, so the picture was not very popular. In addition, Natalya Dmitrievna accepted the offer to star in the television series "Case of Sukhov-Kobylin."
A quiet harbor
Vavilova Natalia - a talented and bright actress - chose the measured life of a simple housewife. The husband-producer created the most favorable conditions for his beloved wife. According to the project of Natalia, a house was built on Rublevka. She devotes all her time to her beloved husband and home with pleasure. She considers herself the happiest woman, does not give any interviews, decisively rejects numerous offers to act in films, does not attend social events.
Really until today could not forgive the betrayal of Natalia Vavilova? The actress today does not even want to remember this. A woman arranges her home, is passionate about gardening, and is busy in the kitchen. Georgian dishes especially work out for Natalya Dmitrievna, which Samvel is incredibly proud of.
Will Natalia Vavilova – the actress return?
Photos from 2013 show that the actress is still in great shape and could still be removed. But the cruel customs of the cinema environment are alien to her. Modern cinema with a series of murders is also not to their liking. The actress admits a small percentage of return to the set. If only the scenario is strong, and the role turns out to be really interesting, deep, and not from the crowd. In the meantime, the woman does not want any changes, the garden and her house are much more interested than the world of cinema.
Not for discussion
Where is actress Natalya Vavilova now and what does she do? This question has long worried many viewers. And very often in the church, in a beautiful woman, people recognize the famous Alexandra (daughter of the heroine Katya from the movie “Moscow Does Not Believe in Tears”). Natalya Dmitrievna is a very religious person. Quite often, she visits the temple of God, communicates with the priest. Together with her husband, they are engaged in charity, sincerely helping children in orphanages. But they do not advertise their actions, believing that then everything will lose its meaning.
A family
Numerous relatives understand and love Natalya Dmitrievna very much. They share her beliefs, appreciate not because Natalia Vavilova is an actress. Children are especially drawn to her. For four nephews, she is a real girlfriend, whom they simply adore. Unfortunately, Samvel Gasparov and Natalya Vavilova have no children of their own.
With the daughter of her husband from her first marriage, Nina, the actress is in a very good relationship. I found a common language with Samvel’s grandchildren. True, he sees them quite rarely, because Nina lives with children in Tbilisi. But, despite the distance, Sergo and Ketino simply adore Natasha.
Non-physical injuries
In an interview with the actress’s husband, it was said that Vavilov gets a lot of psychological injuries precisely because of gossip, which is widely spread by the yellow press. A series of negative publications about Natalia flurried both the woman herself and her fans. They wrote a lot: after a spinal injury, she was bedridden forever, married an American and left Russia, crashed in a car accident, became fat beyond recognition and cannot move on her own, she is hidden by a jealous husband, she cannot be found to continue the film “Moscow to Tears” does not believe". And almost every time after reading another gossip, Natalya Vavilova is very upset.
Most of all, the famous couple is outraged by the fact that it was former colleagues who spread all kinds of nonsense. Although they themselves are well aware that Gasparov and Vavilova have been living in a happy marriage for more than 20 years.
The secret of family happiness
For many years, the actress lives in a happy marriage. What is the secret? If a woman does her best to make it cozy and comfortable in the house, and a man makes this woman happy, the marriage will remain forever. A few years ago, the couple got married. All their life they feel like halves of one whole and understand each other perfectly.
Samvel shared in an interview that he had the impression that he was born with Natalia in an instant. He sincerely loves her for kindness and extraordinary tenderness, for her wisdom and natural beauty.
In conclusion
Natalya Vavilova is an actress (the 2013 photo that journalists managed to get testify that her charm has still not died out) is multifaceted and so different. But she left the cinema, preferring a quiet and closed life, without having accepted the world of the hypocritical and turbulent world of cinema.
Today, the main thing for her in life is a family hearth, communication with family and friends, helping orphanages, visiting exhibitions, museums, temples, traveling. She zealously protects relations with her beloved husband, takes care of her nephews and grandchildren, who don’t have a soul in her. But Samvel does not cease to thank God for having once met this beautiful woman.
