Viktor Dobronravov

Perhaps someone, hearing the name of Viktor Dobronravov, associates him with a famous father. But he is already a self-sufficient, recognizable actor, whose theatrical performances are applauded not only in Russia, and the filmography is full of works of different genres.

Viktor Dobronravov was born on March 8, 1983 in the Rostov region, in the port city of Taganrog. The future actor grew up in an artistic family: his dad is the famous People's Artist of Russia Fyodor Dobronravov, the star of the comedy "Matchmakers". Victor's mom worked as a teacher. In addition to Victor, his younger brother Ivan was brought up in the house, who also devoted his life to acting.

Later, the Dobronravov family moved to Voronezh, because Fyodor Viktorovich was unable to enter the local theater university. The actor recalled that they lived in a small room, and they did not have enough money, so his father worked as a janitor. But, as Victor said in an interview, although childhood was not rich, it was happy. The father constantly brought the boy gifts from the tour, which were a novelty for the 80s, so it is not surprising that the Boomer chewing gum made an indelible impression on the child.

It is known from Victor's biography that in childhood, instead of playing with soldiers from morning till night and playing the ball on the football field with the guys in the yard, he began to get involved in creativity. Thus, already at a young age, Dobronravov knew that he would certainly become a famous actor, although sometimes he thought about the no less exciting profession of a cook.

Dobronravov became interested in art on his own, without parental guidance. Moreover, for a long time young Victor had no idea about his father's profession. After moving to the central part of Russia, the future artist zealously began to take an interest in theater, he literally grew up behind the scenes of Satyricon: the boy enjoyed watching performances and people who skillfully try on certain images.

The artist also recalled that classmates constantly came to visit his father, therefore, fun, saturated with creativity, always reigned in the hostel. And for the summer holidays, Viktor and Ivan Dobronravovs gladly went to their grandmother in their hometown.

At school, Dobronravov was known as a diligent student and, at the same time, managed to earn money as a stage editor in order to receive pocket money. Victor did not bully, although sometimes he liked to play a trick on his classmates and teachers, but all his tricks were perceived with humor and immediately said goodbye. Also in an interview, the artist said that during the period of growing up he organized a "light rebellion": he began to smoke cigarettes, and also learned the taste of beer.

However, Dobronravov's teenage rebellion did not last long, in many respects it depended on the upbringing of his parents. For example, Fyodor, instead of taking the belt out of the closet, talked to his son in an adult way, calmly and judiciously.

Parents tried to raise their sons as honest and decent people. The boys grew up polite, did not quarrel, and also never took someone else's, be it even a wallet lying on the asphalt.

After graduating from high school, Victor entered a prestigious university - the Boris Shchukin Theater Institute. There, the future cinema worker for several years attended the creative workshop of Yevgeny Vladimirovich Knyazev, and in 2004 he received a diploma.

When Viktor was 8 years old, he made a fleeting debut on the stage of the Theater of Satire: in front of a large audience, the boy sang Igor Sarukhanov's touching song "My Dear Old Men" and received a standing ovation from the enthusiastic audience. At the age of 12, Dobronravov tried himself as a voice actor. His voice spoke funny characters of "Sesame Street".

After graduating from the Shchukin Institute in 2004, Viktor entered the service at the Yevgeny Vakhtangov Theater. There he participated both in children's musicals ("Eniki-Beniki" "Klass-Center") and in plays based on the works of great classics ("Eugene Onegin", "Dog in the Manger", etc.). It is noteworthy that in 2009 Victor became the winner of the TV project "Find the Monster", which was implemented on the eve of the new theatrical season of the musical "Beauty and the Beast".

Victor said in an interview that theater is life. Therefore, the young man prefers to perform live in plays and performances in front of admiring spectators to work in front of director's cameras.

After success in the theater, Victor decided to try his hand at cinema. True, as often happens, the first fleeting roles of a young man did not bring popularity among avid moviegoers.

Dobronravov made his debut in Alexander Aravin's multi-part drama "Moscow Windows" (2001), and in subsequent years appeared in "Code of Honor" (2004-2011), "Antikiller-2" (2003) and Yegor Konchalovsky's film "Escape" (2005).

Real success came to the young actor after the melodrama "Don't Be Born Beautiful" with Nelly Uvarova, Grigory Antipenko and Raisa Ryazanova in the lead roles. In the series, which tells about the girl's love for her leader, Viktor played the character of Fyodor Korotkov - the extravagant courier "Zimaletto" in his actions.

By the way, Victor got into this serial film almost by accident: he met on the street with Alexander Nazarov, who told the actor about the new project.

Initially, they wanted to approve Dobronravov for the main role of Zhdanov or Malinovsky, but later they faced the fact that he would play the charismatic Korotkov. The actor shared that the series gave him a lot of opportunities and new experiences. Indeed, back in 2005, this project enjoyed unprecedented popularity among viewers of all ages.

In 2007, the artist was awarded the title role in Nazarov's TV series "Everything is Possible". There Dobronravov reincarnated as Vlad, the ambitious director of the sales department.

Victor is a versatile actor. For example, in the spy saga of Tigran Keosayan "Yalta-45", he played the role of a bandit-saboteur Kavun, and in the detective story "Goriunov" he appeared before the eyes of the audience as Foma Zverev, a captain of the third rank. In this series, the artist worked on the same cinema site with Maxim Averin, Ekaterina Klimova, Ekaterina Vulichenko and other movie stars.

In the painting Heirloom Values, Victor's hero is a side of the love triangle, into which he falls together with Anna Peskova and Petar Zekavitsa.

Then Victor's filmography was replenished with a criminal melodrama about the Chinese mafia "The Fourth Shift", the TV series "Alien Blood" in which he appeared in the negative image of a party functionary who destroyed someone else's happiness.

Svetlana Khodchenkova and Sergey Garmash became the main characters of the detective story "On the Other Side of Death". Victor's character has the ability to recover from fatal injuries. His disappearance from the morgue served as the plot of the picture. The actor performed a number of stunts in the film on his own.

The comedy "Girl with a scythe" brought together father and son on the same stage. Fedor and Victor played members of the same family. Along with "Matchmakers" and "Money", this is another project where the Dobronravovs agreed to act together. According to a representative of the younger generation, directors who offer films in which family ties are destroyed in one way or another by the hands of their characters are refused.

Victor's series of comedic images was continued by Oleg's episodic role in the TV series "Light from the Other World" with Maria Mashkova in the title role.

In addition to theater and cinema, Victor is fond of music. The artist is a member of the Carpet Quartet jazz group, created together with fellow students Mikhail Shklovsky and Dmitry Volkov. Dobronravov said that he became addicted to musical instruments as a child. This was facilitated by the father, who entertained the children with songs to the accompaniment of a guitar. Now Victor is thinking about joining the Voice show, and if he did, he would choose Leonid Agutin as his mentor. After all, the main thing is not the vocal abilities, but the presentation of the work.

In 2019, a military drama "T-34" is released, which tells about Soviet tankmen who escaped from Nazi captivity. Victor considers this film to be the most significant in his career. The actor tried to delve into the material as deeply as possible, read a lot of literature, memories of veterans in order to feel the emotions of that time.
