Coming out of the KVN

In 1997-1998, the director played for the national team of Novosibirsk University, three-time champion of the KVN Supreme League. This determined his further creative destiny, allowing to engage in the implementation of television projects, club and concert activities in conjunction with the residents of the Club of Merry and Resourceful. For permanent viewers of the TNT channel, he is better known as: Dmitry Yefimovich - director of Comedy Woman.

By now there are several successful projects in the director's portfolio. Starting his career at the age of 30 with partnering to create the show Comedy Club (three seasons in 2005 and two in 2012-2013), he continued it in the series "Nasha Russia" (in the first seasons of 2006). He later acted as the director of the first 35 issues of Comedy Woman (2008) and tried himself as a screenwriter and director of the mini-series "Mitrich. Russian Depression "in 2010.

Made in Woman

The TV show Comedy Woman, which premiered in 2008, was originally called Made in Woman. Now it is unofficially called the "female Comedy Club". But Dmitry Efimovich, as one of the creators of the project, was not going to follow this path. He immediately determined that the new offspring should not look like the female version of the Comedy Club, but should become a variety show, which will include incendiary humor, songs with dances, and clown eccentrics. Unfortunately, Made in Woman in the given version lasted only four issues, and then, after some interruption, became exactly what Efimovich wanted to avoid - Comedy Woman, as if a soft response to hard male humor. All participants of this show once started in KVN. The former spouses Dmitry Efimovich also in the past KVNschitsy.

«Our Russian»

Serial in the genre sketch was born in 2006 with the assistance of Semen Slepakov and Garik Martirosyan. It ridicules many negative social phenomena, for example, corruption, football fans, "caring for the people" of some politicians and others. Despite its topicality, "Our Russian" raises a lot of criticism. The film is accused of fomenting ethnic conflicts and corrupting the audience, so some episodes the creators had to cut.

Pauline First

At first there was a couple - Dmitry Efimovich and Polina Sibagatullina. The director's first wife is one of the participants of Comedy Woman, where she performs under the pseudonym Madame Polina. She plays the role of a very peculiar "Bosnian poetess - a secular alcoholic", born allegedly in Sarajevo and earning a living by poetry. According to legend, Muse to her is either in the morning, or from port. Thanks to this stage role, the actress won fame from a wide audience of viewers. Career Sibagatullina began in the KVN team of St. Petersburg. Polina was one of the brightest participants of this talented collective. Already in the debut season of 1999 the team managed to reach the final of the Major League, taking third place. In the same year, Sibagatullina became Miss KVN.

Pauline the second

Pelageya Khanova, ethno-folk singer, known on the platform as Pelageya, took part in two games of KVN as part of the Novosibirsk State University team in the 1997 season. Now the ex-husband of Pelagia Dmitry Efimovich noticed her as an eleven-year-old girl, and married her after thirteen years. At that time, the young vocal singer was the youngest member of the club. In 2000, she created an art folk group in Moscow under her own name. The second time the young people met already in the capital, here began their romance. In 2010, the couple was married, after which Khanova, taking the name of her husband, became Efimovich. This fact for a long time was hiding even from her colleagues from the Pelageya group. Officially, her current name was acquired by the singer after receiving a passport, and before that she had been written in the documents as Polina Khanova. The actress changed her name to Pelagia, in order to avoid legal errors. In the family, she was called from her childhood the current name in honor of her great-grandmother.

Marriages and divorces

What caused the parting of the director with two popular artists, is a secret, but the family life of Dmitry Efimovich was not asked. From the fragments of rare interviews ex-wives it is clear that the name of Pauline is not the only thing that unites them both. According to the stories of former colleagues from Comedy Woman, the cause of the collapse of the union with Polina Sibagatullina was insuperable differences between partners, the main one being the absence of a child. Subsequently, Polina herself repeatedly called relations with Efimovich a mistake. Busy in shows and performances, she doubted that she could give the child time. Dmitry Yefimovich lived with her only two years.

In the marriage with Pelageya the same situation was repeated. The singer was also unable to give her child a baby. One of the most popular performers on the Russian stage is touring for months ahead. I had to choose: either a career or a child. And in 2012, after two years after the wedding, Pelagia filed for dissolution of the marriage, returning the maiden name. Yefimovich is already under 40, so his desire to have children is understandable. But among the causes of divorce was also called the infidelity of Dmitry himself.

Prediction

It is for sure not known whether Dmitry Efimovich knows, whose photo was once seen by one of the winners of the show "The Battle of Psychics" Natalia Vorotnikova, about her prediction that he will have two more families. Psychic predicted a civil marriage with a person much younger than him. She will give the director of Comedy Woman a long-awaited child. But this union will not last too long. Later, he marries a woman with whom she will be together all her life.

What to do and who is to blame?

Currently, Dmitry Efimovich is working on new television projects, which will soon be released on the screen. What will they be like? The director himself knows: all that he has done so far, is only a rehash of ready-made foreign content. Almost 98 percent of software products Russian television purchases abroad. The director many times wondered why the preference for foreigners is preferred, and not for the promotion of their own projects. Lack of staff, insufficient funding, leadership crisis? Is there really no talent in Russia?

Dmitry Efimovich, whose biography in professional and personal life continues to be written further, according to the western horoscope Aries, on the eastern horizon - Cat (Rabbit). When combining horoscopes, the Wild Cat turns out. It seems that the director of serials likes to "walk by himself." The personality of Efimovich is contradictory, it is reflected in the conflict nature of his character: he left the stably successful TV show, parted with his beloved women ... And this means that eternal questions will arise before him again and again.
