“Overlooked”: Tarasova explained the sudden death of the star of “Capercaillie”

In Blagoveshchensk they are preparing to say goodbye to actor Alexander Simonets. The artist, remembered for his work in “Glukhara” and “My Fair Nanny,” died due to heart failure at the age of 62. For his colleagues in the cult series, Alexander’s sudden death came as a complete surprise. The star of “Capercaillie”, actress Victoria Tarasova is worried about the artist’s departure.

“Sasha is a good guy,” Victoria says in a conversation with MK. – Kind, polite, sympathetic – this is a rarity in our time. He was a wonderful actor: it was very comfortable to work with him on set.

According to the artist’s relatives, despite many years of living in Moscow, he never took root in the capital. Therefore, several years ago I decided to leave for my small homeland, where I worked in the local theater.

“We didn’t maintain a relationship with him after the end of filming: that’s what happened,” Victoria continues. – But Sasha never complained about his health in front of me. At this age, unfortunately, heart problems often occur, especially in men. In addition, we have a very emotional profession, and Sasha worked until his last day. I didn’t notice. I’m very, very sorry for him.

Anyone can say goodbye to the actor. The farewell ceremony will begin tomorrow at the Amur Regional Drama Theater at 10 am local time. Alexander will be buried in the village of Semiozerka.
