The actress, who played the main character in the film "Ice", told what sacrifices had to be made for the role and why she was embarrassed by the criticism of the famous mother.
- In the film "Ice" you play a famous figure skater. How long did you have to train to feel confident on the rink? What was the most difficult?
Before filming this film, I didn’t know how to skate, so when me, Sasha Petrov and Milos Bikovich were approved for the main roles, we began to go to the rink almost every day for three months and slowly master this heavy art. We trained and filmed under the supervision of professional figure skaters and figure skating coach Elena Stanislavovna Maslennikova, who works with Ilya Averbukh and on the show " ice Age". They supported, helped and were our doubles in extreme scenes. In the shots where my heroine falls through the ice, I play myself. They tied a load to me, which pulled several meters under the water. I don't handle pressure fluctuations very well. It was scary. They did take after take for 12 hours in a row!
- Once you said that at first you were shy when your mother looked at your game and asked her to leave. Is it easy for you to work with her now? How do you get along with your mom?
Yes, I used to be shy. So far, with my mother (actress Ksenia Rappoport. - Approx. "Antennas"), we have not worked together. Despite the fact that she also plays in the film "Ice", they never crossed paths in the frame. But I think when this happens, we will support each other and we will be very comfortable. You must always be honest with your mother, then she will become a friend. With mine, I can talk about absolutely everything. And she always tried to understand and accept me, to advise, and not to educate.
- In Ice, you and the Serbian actor Milos Bikovich played a couple in love, and then became a couple in real life. Fell in love at first sight? Milos courts differently than Russian men?
I think our relationship with Milos (Milos Bikovich played in the films "Sunstroke" by Nikita Mikhalkov, "Duhless-2", the TV series "Hotel Eleon." - Approx. "Antennas") began with friendship. From the first day we met on the set, we were pleasant to each other, constantly having fun, laughing. From this ease and comfort of communication, our relationship developed. Of course, foreigners are different from Russians. Milos is very gallant, subtle, with a sense of humor, calm, it is impossible to piss him off. And once he came to me for shooting in St. Petersburg and left a domestic squirrel in my trailer. Then he explained that I remind him of this cute animal, which is why I received such a gift.
- The film "Ice" is released on Valentine's Day. Do you celebrate this holiday? Are you generally a romantic person?
I am very glad that the film will appear on February 14, when couples in love want to have a romantic date in the cinema. We do not celebrate this holiday in such a way, but this is another reason to tell your loved one how much you love him. And yes, I am a very romantic person: if I don’t love, then I don’t live.
- You and your sister Sonya have a big age difference - 16 years. What are your relationships?
Now we live in different cities. She is in St. Petersburg, I am in Moscow, but we have a very tender relationship, we call each other, we try to see each other more often. She has a big kind heart, and it seems to me that this is the most important thing that a person should have.
Milos Bikovich and Aglaya Tarasova in the trailer for the film "Ice"
The first trailer of the film "Ice" appeared on the network, in which Aglaya Tarasova, Milos Bikovich and Alexander Petrov played the main roles. In the center of the plot is the talented figure skater Nadya, who has been pursuing her dream all her life - to become a champion. Fate is developing successfully: both on the ice and beyond, the girl is very happy. However, a severe injury changes her life overnight: Nadia finds herself chained to wheelchair and the person she loves leaves her. It would seem that you can forget about sports once and for all, but new friend, hockey player Sasha, forces the girl to fight for her dream again.
It is interesting that if in the film the love story of the heroes of Tarasova and Bikovich was not easy, then in life between the actors everything went according to a completely different scenario: it was on the set of the film "Ice" that young people. The picture for Aglaya turned out to be personal also because her mother, Ksenia Rappoport, appears in the frame: she plays Nadia's mother. As a tough but fair coach main character Maria Aronova starred, Pavel Maykov, Yan Tsapnik, Irina Starshenbaum are in other roles.
The director of the film, which for the first time in the summer, as part of Kinotavr, was the debutant Oleg Trofim, and the producers include the creators of the fantastic blockbuster "" Mikhail Vrubel, Alexander Andryushchenko, Dmitry Rudovsky and (in "Attraction", by the way, Petrov and Starshenbaum were filmed ). The tape will be released in wide release on Valentine's Day, February 14, 2018.

The Serbian Casanova is ready to settle down.
The star of the TV series "Hotel Eleon" Serb Milos Bikovich used to visit Russia in the past. But recently he finally settled in Moscow. And not because of work...
A tall, handsome man with a sly smile and a bewitching, barely perceptible accent has long made Russian spectators fall in love with him. To enviable groom there would be a long queue - but it was extremely difficult to catch the actor.
While filming the series, Milos dangled between Russia and his native Serbia. He flew in for a couple of days - and then back to Belgrade, where he played three or four performances a week. He practically lived on planes, and did not plan to move to Moscow:
I feel so bad here, I want to sleep all the time. And those terrible traffic jams, he complained.
But recently he admitted: that's it, no more flights, he rented an apartment. Now the Russian capital is his home. And not because it's a career. It's just that Milos ... has a bride!
No, of course, with 23-year-old Aglaya Tarasova, he was sometimes seen together before. But who would have thought that everything is so serious? And already they live together, and Milos introduced her to his parents. And they're talking about marriage...
HOW TO NOT KISS THIS?
At home, Bikovich was not allowed to pass by the girls - he is a very popular actor there, he starred a lot, including in top series. But he dreamed of great things - to star with Mikhalkov.
I watched "The Barber of Siberia", "Burnt by the Sun", "12" and was fascinated by Nikita Sergeevich, Milos admits. - My older brother is a monk, and once he said: "I feel you need to write to Mikhalkov."
I refused - well, why would a Russian director need a Serbian actor, who, moreover, barely speaks Russian? And six months later, a call: "This is Mikhalkov's assistant, we want to invite you to the casting." I thought it was someone's bad joke. And then the script was sent to the mail. In Russian, "Sunstroke".
For three hours I could not do anything at all - I tried to understand how this was possible. Well, wouldn't someone write a script for a joke? And then he called his brother: “Guess who invited me to the casting?”
He was approved. This project was followed by others. At first, all the forces went to work, Milos did not see anything around. And then I woke up - the girls are really very beautiful in Russia!
He met top model Sasha Luss at one of the photo shoots for a glossy magazine. And the girl immediately fell under his charm, surrendered without a fight. “We were supposed to kiss in the frame. Of course, I immediately agreed, ”sasha told about her acquaintance. Literally a week after the first meeting, the two of them flew off to meet 2016 in Sri Lanka.
After the rest, Sasha spoke breathlessly: “Milos is a gift of fate for me!” And he laughed: “I won her over with my ability to hide the fact that I have no sense of humor. I also say that I'm not actually a foreigner. But I bow words badly, I put stresses incorrectly and I speak so slowly simply because I’m stupid ... I think she likes it.
STARTED THE BRIDE FROM THE INTERN
But they fled as quickly as they converged. A month later, the paparazzi filmed Sasha at another resort with another man. Milos did not seem to be upset at all and plunged back into his work.
“I only confess to a priest,” he answered questions about whether he had anyone in mind and whether he was having an affair with partners at the Eleon Hotel - after all, the girls there are one more beautiful than the other.
Milos appeared alone everywhere. Everyone was sure that he was not at all up to personal life. But a little later it became clear that the Serb carefully concealed the new love story- with the actress of the series "Interns" Aglaya Tarasova, daughter of Ksenia Rappoport.
The reasons for not making the relationship public were weighty: everyone remembered how Aglaya scandalously broke up with actor Ilya Glinnikov, who was considered her fiancé for two years. Ilya accused the girl of treason, said that he experienced her betrayal so painfully that he even wanted to commit suicide. Ilya did not name the opponent. Only after a while it became clear that Tarasova had gone over to Bikovich ...
This summer, Aglaya flew to Serbia to meet the Milos family. Apparently, their relationship has gone to another level. Bikovich is increasingly talking in interviews that it’s time to settle down, because in January he will turn 30 years old ...
If something goes wrong in a relationship, then the man is most likely to blame. A man in general should be ready to take responsibility for others. At least for the beloved, for the child and then for himself, - he says.
However, Aglaya's fans doubt that the wedding will take place. Too eccentric character of the girl. And Milos' friends believe that everything will be fine. And they are waiting for an invitation to the wedding in the very near future.
Actors Milos Bikovich and Aglaya Tarasova have been together for more than a year, but for a long time they did not advertise their relationship. Having met on the set of the film "Ice", Milos and Aglaya brought romance from cinema to life and now for the first time agreed to tell their common story.
"Halibut is a fish, isn't it?" is the first thing Milos asks before the interview. In a cafe in the center of Moscow, he arrived ten minutes earlier than Aglaya - he had just been released after filming the TV series "Hotel Eleon" and is now studying the menu intently. Milos has a serious expression, a slight accent and almost perfect Russian - except, obviously, for knowledge in the field of marine reptiles.
He, an actor from Serbia, who appeared on the horizon of Russian cinema three years ago, is more than forgivable not to know the great and mighty to every comma. For your short term stay in Russia, he has already done a lot. FROM light hand Nikita Mikhalkov, who met Milos at the Moscow Film Festival, began his career in Russian cinema. Nikita Sergeevich then remembered the actor from the competitive film "Monte Video: Divine Vision", where Bikovich played a talented football player. And then he called to himself - to star in " Sunstroke"According to Bunin.
In Belgrade, Milos seemed to have everything: demand in the profession, shooting in the highest grossing films in Serbia, work in the theater. But he took a chance: he came to Russia, played Bunin's hero - a staunch white officer with sad eyes - and then somehow easily and simply stepped into Russian cinema. That in the cult "Duhless 2", that in the romantic "Without Borders" he looks organically, in his place.
In modern Russian realities, Milos is also his own: a welcome guest at festivals and secular premieres, he found friends in Moscow and, most importantly, met love - on the set of the melodrama "Ice", he met actress Aglaya Tarasova. They played famous skaters in love with each other; the love in the movie became the love in life. It happens and it's different for everyone. So Aglaya and Milos have their own, special story.
But at first I didn’t want to go to audition for Ice, I thought: well, what kind of figure skater am I, I still won’t pass,
Says Aglaya, for whom this role was the first experience in big cinema. She, the daughter of actress Ksenia Rappoport, from the very beginning in the profession had to prove that she was in the frame for a reason and "has the right." Judging by the list of Aglaya's projects on next year, could and proved.
Of course, I am older and work longer, - says Milos, - but Aglaya struck me: she grasps everything very quickly on the site and gropes intuitively. Actresses with such adaptability are rare.
Milos is now preparing Aglaya for castings for future projects.
At every audition invitation, if he's not at home, I call and ask: "Where are you? I need you urgently!" she explains.
Milos clarifies with a smile:
Like you need a reason to call. Verbal squabbles and, as it were, said "home" speak of them as an established couple. At the same time, Milos and Aglaya do not name the starting point of their personal history.
When did I look at Aglaya differently? When we kissed
Milos smiles. 
About themselves, they almost always do not speak seriously, but for hours they can seriously talk about work and the project that has become fateful for them. "Ice" for these two is a film not only about sports and figure skating, but also about risk, perseverance and overcoming. FROM latest actors they are familiar firsthand: before this filming, they did not even know how to skate.
For some reason, I was sure that the Russians have an innate ability to stay on the ice, - says Milos, - but on the set, Aglaya quickly destroyed this illusion of mine.
They completed accelerated training in four months.
The most difficult thing was to look convincing in the frame, - Milos comments, - so I watched the performances of Russian figure skaters. What these guys do on the ice is not just a show, but a real art.
Aglaya's training program included not only triple sheepskin coats and axels, but also psychological immersion in the role. According to the plot, her heroine is seriously injured and stubbornly tries to return to the ice.
Our producers found a girl in a rehabilitation center who received the same injury as my heroine, the actress shares. - I went to her, she showed me how she was recovering, told me how she felt. Were there stunt doubles on set? Of course. But, a maximalist in her profession, Aglaya "rushed into battle" despite the cries of the producers and her own fears. So, in the scene where her heroine falls through the ice, the actress herself went to the bottom:
I don’t tolerate pressure drops well, and here they tied a special weight to me, which pulled me down, sometimes I couldn’t float up even in between takes ... It was scary. And we filmed it for 12 hours!
But Milos and Aglaya tried to take care of themselves on the court.
I remember that during the filming in Sochi, we really wanted to bungee jump, - says the actress. - But the producers punished us like little ones: they sent us to ordinary attractions and said that until we finished filming, it was impossible to take risks. And they jumped at the same time!
Milos Bikovich and Aglaya Tarasova in the movie "Ice" They really are somewhat "like little ones": they joke, wink and talk about everything with the ease that occurs when two are on the same wavelength. For Milos and Aglaya, this is a wave of healthy carelessness and a desire to live today, as brightly and richly as possible. They do not feel the difference in mentalities and "translation difficulties".
Being a foreigner in Russia is very convenient: you can choose what you understand and what you don't, - Milos argues with a deliberately serious expression on his face. - For example, I can't remember what "take out the trash" means. Well, it does not go to the head! There is only one problem: it seems that Aglaya also does not understand the meaning of these words, even though she is Russian.
Aglaya is learning Serbian. In your own way. For example, he writes down for Milos the neologisms he created and impressions from life in Moscow:
I don't understand how we used to get along without his turns of phrase. Milos once said "egg shield" when he forgot the word "shell". Or "how I fell into this life", re-inverting the expression "how I got to such a life." I also love it when Milos "booze" after me - this means that when Milos pours water into a lady's glass, he says: "Let me go after you." And recently, for the first time, he went to a Russian bathhouse, called me and shouted: "I'm in shock! I was beaten with a tree!"
It was terrible: hot, a lot of sweaty fat men, everyone says: "Oh, good!" - and begin to whip each other. Then they whip me, lower me into ice water, pour tea. And you know what's the worst? I will definitely return there. After we moved in together, I even once googled on the Internet: “How to live with a foreigner,” says Aglaya. “I just didn't understand what was going on. And I still don’t understand: it’s almost impossible to quarrel with him.
Milos Bikovich and Aglaya Tarasova in the shooting of HELLO! Even the situation "Meet the girl's mother" turned out to be special: Milos played Ksenia Rappoport's lover in the musical film "Myths".
At that time, I already knew that Aglaya was Xenia’s daughter, but I still didn’t fully understand why everyone breathed the name Rappoport, ”he says. - And then Aglaya and I went to St. Petersburg to watch Lev Dodin's Hamlet, where Xenia plays Gertrude. And she's there... there's not even a word in Russian to describe it. Like a person who has something crazy in a good way, who is hungry for everything. Xenia has it. And in Aglaya too. In this, Milos and Aglaya coincided: both have a creative hunger and life maximalism, a desire not to sit still, but to take, live and do. As much as possible and always together.
