short biography
The date of birth of Alexei Nilov is January 31, 1964. Born in the Northern capital of Russia.
Alexey dreamed of an acting career from an early age. But my father was against it. He knew all the negative sides of cinema and constantly told his son about them. Stories like this have played a role at some point. Alexey thought about getting another profession, more "earthly". He even attended preparatory courses at the Institute of Light Industry. I tried my hand in many other areas.
But neither direction was enjoyable. Then Galina advised her son to go to drama school. Secretly from his father, Alexey took the documents to LGITMiK. Subsequently, he confessed to Gennady about the decision. The father did not swear, but took the news with sufficient restraint.
