Childhood and youth
The future actor was born in the small village of Nizhne, in the Donetsk region. Sergei Vladimirovich grew up and was brought up in an ordinary family: his parents worked in the mine. Therefore, it is surprising that a famous actor grew up in the house of ordinary workers, especially since as a child Lukyanov did not have outstanding abilities and was not much different from his peers.
Actor Sergei Lukyanov
Seryozha was an active child and constantly spent time with the boys in the yard, playing outdoor games. But, nevertheless, the boy managed to study diligently and complete his homework, thereby pleasing his parents with diligent grades in his diary. Having received a certificate of secondary education, Lukyanov chose a down-to-earth path and went to a mining school to follow in the footsteps of his father.
After graduating from school, the young man got a job at a mine. To break up the routine of work, Sergei found a hobby: he joined an amateur theater club.
Sergei Lukyanov
Having performed on an improvised stage, the guy realized that acting was his calling. Moreover, his colleagues in the workshop noted Sergei’s talent and recommended that he change his field of activity. Lukyanov listened to the advice of his friends, as well as the call of his heart. Therefore, in 1929, the future actor went to learn the basics of cinematic art in the studio at the Kharkov Theater named after T. G. Shevchenko. The young man studied there for two years.
Daughter of Klara Luchko Oksana
Alas, life for Oksana herself was not so rosy . The woman graduated from GITIS and VGIK, but she failed to become an actress. Oksana Lukyanova found herself in journalism and translation. Personal life didn’t work out at all: the marriage in which Clara Luchko’s daughter gave birth to a son broke up.
The legendary artist suffered a heart attack in 2005. Her husband survived her by 7 years, but all these years he desperately missed her. Now Oksana lives in the actress’s house. The woman left everything as it was during the life of the famous mother, turning the apartment into a museum-monument to Clara Luchko.

Movies
Sergei Vladimirovich Lukyanov was lucky because he managed to find his calling, because better late than never. It is noteworthy that the aspiring actor appeared in front of the director's cameras at the age of 34. The film “The Duel” (1944) became his debut in the world of cinema.
Sergei Lukyanov in the film “The Duel”
In the film by Vladimir Legoshin, which tells about the era of the Patriotic War, Sergei Vladimirovich shared the set with Andrei Tutyshkin, Alexei Gribov, Osip Abdulov and other actors.
In “The Duel,” Lukyanov tried on the image of state security colonel Lartsev, but this role was insignificant. Therefore, Sergei did not wake up famous and did not acquire popularity and fame. The actor’s next work was the film “Boy from the Outskirts,” which was published in 1947. The main character, Andrei, was played by Evgeny Samoilov, and Lukyanov played his father.

Creative success came to Lukyanov only in 1949, after the release of the musical comedy “Kuban Cossacks”. The plot of the film immerses the viewer in the post-war years: Nikolai and Daria meet at an inter-collective farm fair, who fall in love with each other at first sight, but the heroes, who work on different farms, have to overcome the resistance of their bosses.
In the film by Ivan Pyryev, Lukyanov played Gordey Voron, the chairman of the Red Partisan collective farm, who is in love with the competing chairman Galina Peresvetova. Marina Ladynina, Klara Luchko and Vladlen Davydov also played in the film.

Further, Sergei Vladimirovich’s track record was replenished with the films “Donetsk Miners” (1950), “Unforgettable 1919” (1951), “The Return of Vasily Bortnikov” (1952), etc.
In 1954, the film “Big Family” directed by Joseph Kheifits (based on the novel by Vsevolod Kochetov) was released, where Sergei Vladimirovich again won the leading role. In the center of the storyline is the Zhurbin family, which consists of hereditary shipbuilders: three generations live together in one house, from grandfather to grandchildren. It was Lukyanov who played the head of the family and the old worker, Matvey Dorofeevich.

Also worth about (1956). This film was one of the first to be shot in the detective genre on the territory of the USSR. Sergei Vladimirovich had to try on the image of police colonel Sergei Ivanovich Afanasyev. Lukyanov’s colleagues on the set were such actors as Alexey Batalov, Ninel Podgornaya, Evgeny Leonov, Nikolai Kryuchkov and other show business stars.
Among other things, Sergei Vladimirovich appeared in the films “Twelfth Night” (1955), “The Captain’s Daughter” (1958), “Foma Gordeev” (1958) and other notable works. In 1965, Lukyanov played in his last film, “They Went East,” which tells the story of the Italian troops who fought on the side of Hitler.
New happiness
The actress was very lucky: her second husband loved her just as much as the first. Dmitry also quickly found a common language with Oksana. The girl accepted him as her own; Mamleev managed to replace the child’s father. Clara and Dmitry lived together for 37 years !

Personal life
There is little information about the personal life of Sergei Vladimirovich. From the biography of the famous actor it is known that he had two wives. Lukyanov met Nadezhda Tyshkevich, a ballerina of the Kyiv Theater, even before the start of the war. After the lovers got married, they began to live a measured life and planned children. Soon a daughter, Tatyana, was born into the family, who also began to learn the basics of acting.

However, in his first marriage, the actor was never able to find happiness because he began to have feelings for another woman - actress Klara Luchko, with whom he starred in “Kuban Cossacks”. When Sergei Vladimirovich saw his colleague, he immediately exclaimed: “I’m lost!” Therefore, the actor took a decisive step, leaving his wife and ten-year-old daughter for a new wife.
Sergei Lukyanov and Clara Luchko
Luchko and Lukyanov lived together for fifteen cloudless years and raised their daughter Oksana, who entered the journalism department.
But Sergei Vladimirovich’s granddaughter, Daria Poverennova, did not break the “family tradition.” The girl played in the films “Turkish March” (2000), “Brigade” (2002), “Guardian Angel” (2007), “Fix Everything” (2016), etc.
Beloved wife
Lukyanov and Luchko lived in perfect harmony for 15 years. In this marriage, the actress’s only child, daughter Oksana, was born. Alas, in 1965 Clara’s happiness ended. Right in the middle of a working meeting in the theater, Sergei suffered a heart attack. Lukyanov endlessly adored his wife, and the loss of her husband was a serious blow for the actress.

Creativity became Clara’s salvation and outlet. Luchko believed that the acting profession requires constant training. Even personal grief did not shake the actress’s point of view. Over time, the pain of loss lessened. And in 1969, Clara met journalist Dmitry Mamleev , whom she soon married.
