At school, the girl was fond of basketball, was the captain of the youth team of Uzbekistan. In those years, Margarita did not think about her acting career. Yungvald-Khilkevich, the future director of The Three Musketeers, lived in the same yard with Terekhova. He recalled that even then Margarita was very beautiful, crowds of gentlemen constantly followed the girl. Bright, active, wayward, with slender legs and an early chest - this Terekhova was remembered by the boys.

Margarita Terekhova graduated from high school with a gold medal and entered the physics and mathematics department of Tashkent University. But after 2 years, the student lost interest in the exact sciences, took the documents and went to enter the theater institute in Moscow. Margarita arrived late, when the enrollment had already ended. There was only one chance - to get into VGIK, but the selection committee did not consider the future star of Soviet cinema in the guise of a provincial girl.

Margarita did not give up - she decided to enter a studio school at the Mossovet Theater, and she succeeded. The talent of the actress was revealed in the very first months, when Terekhova became the leader in the troupe. True, the female half of the team envied her and did not hide it. Such an attitude did not upset the student - her independent character affected her, and she had to somehow survive. Terekhova even had to cut her braid, because there was no time to take care of her hair.

In 1964, Margarita Terekhova graduated from a studio school and became an actress at the Mossovet Theater - the artist devoted almost 20 years to this place. There were many interesting roles in the theatrical biography of Terekhova. She appeared in the form of Cleopatra in the production of Caesar and Cleopatra, played Marie in Through the Eyes of the Clown, Sonya in Crime and Punishment, and Elizabeth in The Royal Hunt.

Margarita Terekhova left the Mossovet Theater in 1983. The next 3 years, the actress worked in "Balaganchik" - a team that Terekhova organized together with Igor Talkov. And in 1987 she returned to her native theater and made her debut as a director.

Margarita's first work as a film actress took place in 1965 - she played in the film Hello, It's Me! In Runner on the Waves, the artist had 2 roles at once. In 1970, the premiere of "Belorussky Railway Station", in which Margarita Terekhova also played, took place with triumph.

In 1974 Andrei Tarkovsky invited the actress to the main role in the film "Mirror". They said that Tarkovsky was in love with Terekhova, the artist became a real muse for him. A relationship of trust was established between the director and the performer of the two main roles in his film. It was to Margarita that he would later tell about the seance, during which the “spirit of Boris Pasternak” would predict the number of films Andrei subsequently shot.

Soon the artist's filmography was replenished with works in the film "Day Train", where she played in tandem with Valentin Gaft, melodrama "Who will go to Truskavets", in which Alexander Kaidanovsky became the actress's partner.

The artist became famous throughout the Soviet Union at the end of the 70s, when "Dog in the Manger", "Pious Martha" and "D'Artagnan and the Three Musketeers" were released. After the role of Milady in The Three Musketeers, Margarita was firmly entrenched in the title of sex symbol.

In the 80s, with the participation of the screen star, the films "Everything could have been different", "Let's get married", "Primordial Russia" were released, but they did not cause the former excitement among the public. Later, the actress appeared in the comedy It, which ridiculed the bureaucracy, and in the war drama Our Father.

In 1990, Terekhova received the Grand Prix at the San Remo festival for her role in the film "Only for Madmen". This painting was awarded several more prestigious awards. Soon, Margarita Borisovna's repertoire was replenished with episodic roles in the arthouse drama "The Path" and the TV series "Kings of the Russian Investigation."

In 1996 Terekhova received the title of People's Artist of the Russian Federation. From the same year, the celebrity stopped acting.

In 2005, Margarita unexpectedly returned to acting. On March 20, 2006, the premiere of the film "The Seagull", a screen version of Chekhov's play of the same name, took place. Margarita Borisovna played the main role of Irina Arkadina and acted as a screenwriter and stage director. The main roles in the film were also played by the son and daughter of the actress - Alexander and Anna Terekhovy.

After that, Margarita Borisovna wanted to continue working in the cinema. The actress asked her friend-screenwriter Marina Sheptunova to write a script about Ksenia Blazhennaya, where Terekhova wanted to play the main role herself, but Sheptunova flatly refused. According to rumors, this refusal provoked an aggravation in the mental health of the actress: she too got used to the role of Ksenia Blazhennaya, which influenced the adequate perception of reality.

In 2012, the actress was announced the face of the 10th Moscow Film Festival of Russian Cinema. Alexey Batalov presented Terekhova with a commemorative award.

On December 19, 2016 a documentary film about the life and work of the actress “Margarita Terekhova. Alone in the Looking Glass ”. On May 15, 2017, the film was re-shown on the Vremya TV channel.

The young man, by all means, decided to link his life with a beautiful stranger. He hurried to pick up the documents from the university and went to the entrance exams at the studio school at the Mossovet Theater, where he managed to pass the competition. It took a year to court the girl, after which the young people got married. The marriage lasted 3 years. Graduation coincided with the divorce of the couple.

Margarita met her second husband, Bulgarian actor Savva Khashimov, on the set of Running on the Waves. Savva was married, but for Terekhova's sake he divorced his wife and moved to Moscow.

On March 4, 2016, a charity concert was held at the Moscow Actor's House, at which acting artists raised money for the treatment of former Soviet cinema stars who were unable to provide for themselves. The funds were also intended for Terekhova, whose diagnosis was announced publicly - Alzheimer's disease.

However, charity turned into a scandal. After the press release of the event, outraged fans and journalists began bombarding the actors' families with questions about why they allowed the plight of their relatives. It turned out that the actors for whom the money was being collected did not know about the action. Margarita's daughter made a statement that her mother is sick, but does not need money. Terekhova's family promised to donate all the funds raised to the Zhivoi foundation for the treatment of those who really need it.
