சுயசரிதை
Russian actress Yulia Khlynina is celebrated for her diverse and impactful roles in both film and theater. Like a chameleon, she skillfully adapts to any character, earning genuine admiration from audiences and critics alike.
Born in Moscow in January 1992, Khlynina experienced her parents' divorce early in life. Raised by her mother and grandmother, she only grew close to her father after finishing school, with their meetings mostly limited to weekends.
Initially, acting was not an obvious path for Khlynina, who excelled in science during her school years. Her interest in performing was sparked by ballroom dancing, which gave her valuable public experience, though the costly hobby was beyond her family’s means.
She briefly joined a drama club, where teachers recognized her creative talent, though she remained uncertain about pursuing acting. After excelling in her exams, she was accepted into several institutions, including the Mining Institute, Moscow State University, the Nuclear Research Institute, and the Moscow Art Theater School. Ultimately, her acceptance into all these schools made her realize her true desire to study drama.
Khlynina studied under the renowned Konstantin Raykin, whose encouragement helped her complete her education. He was her biggest supporter, laughing heartily at her sketches and believing she was naturally gifted for acting. She lived up to these high expectations.
She views theater as a true test of an actor’s state of mind. While still a student, she performed at the Satirikon Theater, playing the lead in Romeo and Juliet. However, after graduating, she found the responsibility overwhelming and decided to leave the company.
In 2013, Khlynina joined the Mossovet Theater, quickly becoming one of its leading actresses. Her roles include productions based on the works of Fyodor Dostoevsky, Anton Chekhov, and Vladimir Nabokov. She received the Moscow Komsomolets Theater Award for her role in "Le Cocu Magnifique."
Besides Mossovet, Yulia also acts in the Theater of Nations and the Volkov Drama Theater. Her role in "The Seagull. A Sketch" earned a nomination for the prestigious Golden Mask theater award.
Khlynina made her television debut with a guest role on the drama series Obmani, esli lyubish (2013-2014). Her breakthrough came when director Stanislav Govorukhin noticed her and cast her as Sonya in the psychological detective film Weekend (2013), adapted from Noel Calef's novel "Ascenseur pour l'échafaud."
Following that, she accepted every opportunity to prove her talent on screen, resulting in a busy filmography and consistent praise from peers and critics.
In 2015, she gained recognition for her role as the enigmatic Lisa in the TV drama Zakon kamennykh dzhungley (2015-2017). The following year, she portrayed the delicate young Marfa in the film Duelyant (2016).
Her portrayal of Mirra in Mysterious Passion was notably brilliant and distinct. Immersed in a vintage setting during filming, Khlynina gained insights into marriage and motherhood.
Among her notable 2017 releases was Vadim Perelman's film Kupi menya (2018), depicting the lives of three friends. Khlynina stated in interviews that her character Katya resonated closely with her own personality, allowing her to deliver a harmonious performance.
Her role as Dasha in Zvonite DiKaprio! was unforgettable, portraying a loving, forgiving, yet resilient woman. She co-starred with Alexander Petrov, with whom she later worked again on the drama Ice 2 (2020).
In 2019, Khlynina played the young wife of legendary goalkeeper Lev Yashin in the biographical film Lev Yashin. Vratar moey mechty. She then appeared in the series Koll-tsentr (2020-), portraying a call center operator named Katya.
She also starred in the drama Polyot (2020-2021), about construction company employees who survive a plane crash. Her character, a once-happy bride, experiences a life-altering transformation.
Khlynina remains a highly sought-after actress. At the end of 2021, the thriller series KrisTina premiered, featuring her in dual roles—a valuable challenge according to her.
In 2022, she starred as the lead in the adventure and historical TV series Elizaveta.
On a personal note, Khlynina revealed in 2020 that she had married, sharing a wedding photo on her Instagram account (a platform banned in Russia). Her husband is Alexei Milevsky, investment director at Mail.ru Group.
