The whole country fell in love with Rustam Sagdullaev after the release of the iconic painting by L. Bykov about brave military pilots. By that time, the young actor had already managed to be noted in several film works. He also had a lot of roles afterwards. But the main one of them, Rustam considers the romantic image of Romeo in the film story “Only“old men”go to battle.
From the biography of R. Sagdullaev
The future talented actor was born in Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan, on July 25, 1950. The boy was brought up in an atmosphere of love and parental care. Rustam's father was a party leader, but did not differ in his strict attitude towards children. The mother took the main care of the upbringing of the children. Sometimes she had to apply very harsh measures to them.
During his school years, the artistic Rustam attended the drama club in the House of Pioneers. One of the boy's idols was G. Millyar, well-known to Soviet audiences, whom the young actor tried to imitate in everything. More than once Rustam portrayed fairy-tale characters in the style of Georgy Millyar at matinees.
For the first time on the screen Sagdullaev appeared at the age of thirteen: it was the role of Alimjan in the film "The Rope Walkers". While working on that project, the boy carefully noticed how his older comrades create cinematographic images; many of them were the stars of the national Uzbek cinema. Since then, cinema has entered Rustam's life forever.
R. Nakhapetov took part in the fate of the Uzbek actor. It was he who recommended the Uzbek actor to L. Bykov for the role of the handsome Romeo in the famous film with the title "Only" old men "go to battle. As soon as she went to the rental, the whole big country started talking about Sagdullaev. For his entire subsequent career, Rustam did not manage to surpass the success, which literally covered him after the release of Bykov's painting.
