"Six years ago, I was sitting in my office at Mosfilm and working. My assistant Nastya asked me to answer a call on the city phone: - Listen to these people, these are the parents of a girl who urgently needs a bone marrow transplant operation. I called Chulpan Khamatova, and her Foundation helped transport Alina to Moscow and put her in a hospital. My wife Sveta then arranged an auction, we collected the money and gave it to Chulpan. After a while, Alina had an operation. Before falling asleep under anesthesia, she said — " If I recover, I will try to become an actress. Alina is now healthy. Before the New year, I shot her with a digital camera in the short film "Sasha" for a charity auction, which was once again held by Svetka.
