Vitaly Khaev ranks himself to those actors who try to hide their lives from the attention of the public. But somehow argued with a long-time friend, which will give an interview all year, - and it is necessary. Vitaly played his first role in the movie in the cinema only at the age of thirty five years, since then there were a lot of bright works that brought him recognition. And let the colleagues laugh that the broken nose played a considerable role in this, the actor himself was confident that he paved his forehead on the cinema Olympus - namely the purposefulness and ability to not focus on failures. He told about it in an interview with the magazine "Atmosphere".
- Vitaly, you are fifty-three years old, and you, in my opinion, are in great shape and in the profession, which is called, on horseback. But a few years ago you said that I did not have a certain age crisis. And what was he expressed?
- Long-time, everything has passed, three years ago it was the case. But the crisis was not protracted, fortunately, and I can not even say what he was expressed. The interest did not disappear for anything, I just discovered that I was fifty years old, and this is ego! Right to birth and happened. That's all. (Laughs.) I always had a lot of work, I did not notice the age, I slipped past him, and he walked himself and walked. And fifty - such a date, by which you will not pass. And not what covered me, I just realized that he was already an adult. Then I look, the folders began to play, the leaders of different ...
- Many say that it is at this time and personal problems began ...
- Of course, it was necessary to encourage a personal problem for something. You can't say that it became a lazy and a thick pig, you lie on the couch, drink beer and do nothing. And middle-aged crisis is an excuse for their behavior.
Rest is rare and expensive pleasure. In recent years, the actor loved the yacht

- But now you feel yourself a man in the heyday: active, worker, fun?
- I do not know. (Laughs.)
- What is the case today takes your brain and your soul in your free time?
"So I always work, I have no free time." Now I have three projects, not the simplest, especially "Dr. Richter". We remove the second part, and the schedule is very dense. And there are huge monologues, it is necessary to learn about twelve-thirteen sheets of text every day. So texts, and only they, in this period they occupy my brain. In the cinema, it is easy to shoot one or two episodes a day, and in the series - on eight-nine scenes. It is very hard physically and morally, because you must keep information in my head all the time. Not to mention medical terms that cannot be pronounced at all, not to learn. Sometimes I write them on a piece of paper so that it is quietly look quiet.
- In my opinion, artists, removing in a similar film, can "overcome" everything as students of the first course of the Medin Institute ...
- It happens when you read the medical directory and it seems that you have the symptoms of almost all diseases. But in our "Doctor Richter" is very heavy, painstaking work, it does not allow to dive into such things.
- You had a lot of heavy filming, including the need for twelve hours not to sleep and work in the cold, as, for example, in the "Iceberry" ...
- In the "icebreaker" it was easier to remove than in Richter now, because in Moscow, the thirty-degree heat, and you sit in the pavilion, in which there is no air. And there were normal men, the sea, everything is fine. Yes, cold, but we dressed. (Laughs.)
Vitaly was married three times, but now the place of life companions vacuisy

- Do you have any tonic or relaxing classes helping during hard work, maybe a bath?
- What is the bath?! I have no time. You come in the evening after changing, eat, teach the text. Wake up in the morning, again you teach the text and go to shift. That's all the rapid factors. And when I have a vacation, it is unknown. Although, maybe some possibility will appear in September.
- What is your favorite vacation?
- Most recently, unfortunately, not earlier, we opened your holidays on the yacht. My friend from Ekaterinburg-hectare is the world champion in yachtsport, and he has long called me with him. And finally, last year we gathered and all with the children went to travel on the yacht on the Adriatic. It was unforgettable. And now I think that it is hardly possible to just lie on the beach somewhere. Although come somewhere a couple of days to relax, lying on the sea shore, is also good, but I am sure that the bulk of my travel will be associated with the yacht. We broke through the track and experienced an incredible feeling of freedom, unaccustomed to nothing, every day - new places, swimming in the open sea, the beauty of species ... By the way, they say that this is a very expensive vacation, on costs it turns out almost the same thing to sit in European five-star hotel and dine money in a restaurant.
- With age and new opportunities, your attitude to comfort has changed?
- Everyone wants to live better, but prestige is not about me. I have a favorite unchanging place, they are different in the level, there are among them and quite cheap, it would seem, no remarkable, but I like it. And there are very expensive. My son does not understand why I go to one restaurant, and I got comforted there, there was my circle of communication. And so lately it became hard, because they find out on the street, but I want some confidentiality. Therefore, you have to choose the places in which you already know and will not pester, constantly being photographed is simply impossible. (Laughs.)

- And after which project, the recognition went?
- I do not know. Just with time it happened. I never tracked it, and I had no boom.
- That is, the quantity passed into quality ...
- You can and so to speak. But still practically no one knows my last name. "Oh, what's your name? We love you so much, love so. " (Laughs.) But I treat it completely calmly. Autographs are almost not taken, basically ask to make a joint photo. If people want this, I do not understand why refuse. Well, such a profession, you will not do anything. Someone just greets someone smiles. But I do not have such recognition as our top artists.
- We used public transport for a long time?
- Why? Sometimes I go to the fitness center to swim in the pool, and if the terrible traffic jams and taxis can not be called in Moscow, I descend in the subway. True, it happens rarely. When I go there, I practically notice anything, for me the subway is the fastest route from the point A to the point B. Once, I remember, went along the long transition to the "Revolution Square", and stood a man who played on a saw. It struck me, I thought: "Oh! As in former times. " Nothing changes, because I remember how in childhood someone sang someone, someone played. The subway rides, descended and reached in fifty rubles anywhere without problems. And there is a negative everywhere, you get into the traffic jam on the road, everything around is also nervous, they will signal, here's the car, our own space. You can walk on foot, run into some unpleasant company. So it all depends on the mood. Why spoil yourself mood to drive twenty minutes? I do not do that.
- Somehow Yuri Moroz said that you drove the hand of fate, because it was after a broken and defective nose that, in fact, and began in the movie ...
- I do not know. Maybe someone from the side knows what and why it happened, but I have such a feeling that I made it mostly forehead. All my life, how much I remember, worked either in the theater or in the movies. Yes, I had sign meetings, as with Kirill Serebrennikov, with the brothers Presnyakov, with Andrei Pokhkin - I went to another level. Is this fate? Probably.
Work in the popular TV series "Dr. Richter" forced the Haeva to learn medical terms
- And who are your friends, and many of them?
- There are no real friends. I have one major friend, since childhood, and we are good together. He lives in Yekaterinburg. For a long time, we died from sight of each other, and then they wrote off on the Internet and again met by adults. As if did not part out at all. There are still friends on the theater with which I have been working for a long time. If twelve years to play the same performance, as it was with "Figaro", it is impossible not to be friends. We started with Evgeny Vitalyevich Mironov, when he also had no theater. Twelve years of work is a whole length of life that we passed together. With the theater of nations, I generally associates a lot. He became home for me.
- It is often said that women's friendship does not exist in contrast to male. For you more importantly, common interests, views or mental contact?
- I do not know what men's friendship is, I do not understand the definition of this word at all. But my friend is a very close person to me, I share with him all. Each of us is rejoiced by the victory of the other and, on the contrary, the loss will be sad.
- How do you perceive loss, defeat?
- In childhood I was an athlete, and I didn't care. But basically I won. Since six, another child, every year I became the champion of Moscow in martial arts. Therefore, almost always felt the winner. But this applies to sports, and in life everything is different. There were different projects, including those that were not obtained. But from the very beginning career to this very philosophically, the main thing is to go further and work.
- Girls love winners.
- I do not know about girls. In our years, it was different in this matter, so I somehow passed by. (Laughs.) I was mostly absorbed in the main sport, I was not very worried about amur adventures.
And the drama "Icebreet" moved to the world of brave sailors
- Your sons of fourteen and twenty years. Would you prefer in what time to grow: in their or in yours?
"I liked it in my time, although we didn't have computers, we played tangible games - to the ball or thrown with sticks on banks. And now they shoot in virtual reality, you will not die from the phone. And adults - too. Previously, to chat with a person, especially if there was no home phone, it was necessary to get up, go outside, take two kopecks, find a working phone-machine, call it and arrange a meeting.
- from all this and excitement was more, and obligatory ...
- Well yes. (Laughs.) I read the first time about the video telephone in the head of Professor Doweel, "it was fantasy, and now we are completely safe for gadgets. By the way, at first, when mobile phones and video calls appeared, it seemed to me with something unreal.
- Sons did not choose your profession?
- Senior in the Higher School of Economics is studying finances, and the youngest studying at school in Obninsk and is engaged in the theatrical circle. He visits the tank contests and is going to become a director or artist. I have not yet decided, there are four more schools ahead.
- Would you like to go to your footsteps?
- I don't think about it. Senior immediately chose finance activities. And younger fourteen, still may change.
The series "Translator" brought Vitaly two kinonagrades
- He looks at your work?
"No, his classmates tell him in school that they saw in some film. And I often starred in such pictures that the children do not show the children. But it matures - look. And the eldest was almost all of my performances, goes to the theater with a girl. One of his favorite films is "translator". "Depicting the sacrifice" he watched when she became old, and Icebreet. And mostly he criticizes me. Also fond of cinema and says that while I do not reach some kind of plank. (Laughs.)
- You are not offended?
- No, why should I take offense? I even listen to curiosity.
- And what are your relationship with your appearance? Many of your colleagues are very pretty to themselves in this regard.
- I am satisfied. Doing sports. When I add a little in weight, I go to the hall, but it is in the order of things. Somehow, I do not follow myself. I do not go to the massage, nor into injections, I have no time to do it. And who likes likes? Someone, of course, does something, but it all depends on the nature of a person, and not from the profession. Is the manicure - the prerogative of only artists? And Botox, probably, not only actresses are rolling. This is not the privilege of artists - decorate yourself, but definitely arranged men and women.
And the series "How I became Russian" unexpectedly made him popular ... in China
- By the way, about women. Have you married immediately after the army?
- I was married three times, two of them officially. And every time in love. But we have already six in a divorce.
- So you are now free, enviable fiance?
- Completely right. (Smiles.)
- Do you exist independently?
- I can live alone. And I can cook myself. But in this sense, everything is fine, I just do not think that my personal life must be known to everyone. And with children I have excellent relationships, we are friends and even live together. Just a senior - in Moscow, and the younger - in Obninsk.
- What do you think your character has changed with age?
- Probably, I became more tolerant for everything, I learned to bypass some corners. But why do people know, I changed or not? The artist needs to be interviewed after the film, where he will tell how he worked there. I do not want to share with the public how I live. I want to be closed. And, in my opinion, it turns out that it works.
