A few days ago, fans of the KVN team “NATE” rejoiced, because the club managed to reach the major league based on the results of the festival in Sochi. The comedians themselves reported this. They were able to impress the jury with their jokes, and therefore took one of the first places at the event.
However, just a few days later it became clear that the star team had suffered a real tragedy. One of the team members, Sergei Balenko, died. His friends rushed to talk about it on social networks, without indicating the reason for what happened.
“On January 19, 2018, our brother and friend, Sergei Balenko, passed away. He died too early and could have done so much more. My thoughts are confused, I don’t want to believe it,” club representatives said.
According to media reports, the tragedy occurred in Rostov-on-Don. However, it is still unknown what happened and under what circumstances Balenko died. Fans of the comedian were shocked by the news. They rushed to express their condolences to the star’s family and friends. “I remember Seryozha well on stage. He was always so fiery, just glowing with enthusiasm and energy,” “I understand that it’s tactless to ask, but what happened? There is no information anywhere about the cause of death,” “When young people pass away, it is always a tragedy. I can’t even imagine how hard it is for the guy’s parents now,” wrote the young man’s fans.
Sergei's friends decided to support his relatives financially. They opened a fundraiser and asked everyone who cared to transfer money to Balenko’s mother, which will be used to organize the funeral. In the first hours of the campaign, a decent amount was collected. Club representatives also called for tolerance and not asking questions regarding the cause of the incident.

“Today our Vova Duda died. Stroke. After the operation and all possible measures that the doctors in Novosibirsk were capable of, they did everything that was needed and everything that they could. We, not doctors, from different parts of the world tried to hold him, asked, begged, prayed, but no matter what, I decided. It's somehow... offensive, or something. Well, in general, as always.
Vovka is an absolutely conflict-free person, this is how it happens, yes, I have rarely seen such people in my life. Nice, cheerful and very kind and decent. It's funny that he was the one who took my mother's cat in after her death. Some unlucky cat. And a year. “I still love you,” Lazareva wrote.

The TV presenter, actor and comedian also commented on Duda’s death.
“We studied at the same faculty as Vladimir Duda. KVN began with a faculty club - a humorous Club of Mathematicians. One of bright people“The one I paid attention to was him,” RT quotes him as saying. “He’s one of the first people who got me started doing comedy.” I have the warmest bright memories associated with him. Friends from the faculty, from KVN, from life.”
Duda graduated from the Faculty of Mechanics and Mathematics of Novosibirsk State University, was a member and captain of the NSU university team, which became the champion of the KVN major league in 1987-88, 1991 and 1993.
According to the comedian, he got into KVN by accident.
“In fact, it all started back in FMSU. My roommate and I sang songs for money in the cafeteria. There, some songs were for three kopecks, some for five, some for ten. They even organized entire concerts - well, also for money, of course. They also sang in the hostel. It all ended after another classmate bought a subscription to all the performances, taking us to the cafeteria,” Duda recalled in an interview with the university website. — After that, we somehow became uninterested, the business faded. Well, then somehow it happened. The path is standard: mathematics department, “Office of the Divanov Brothers”, KVN.
I was a fairly well-known figure in the Kontor, so in general there was never any question of whether or not to include me in the team. Starting from applications, from qualifying performances, and until the very end.”
He said that when the NSU team made it into the league and they were shown on TV, the participants felt like real stars.

According to him, together they made many programs, and he was amazed by Menshikov’s attitude to work.
“We worked together every day for 10 years. We made a lot of passes. He amazed me with his attitude towards what he did. He never considered himself a genius, unlike many. He was very calm about what he did. We all had normal, comradely grounds,” added Salibov.
