And yet Eldar Lebedev was lucky not only to meet, but also to discern his destiny. He had known Valeria Kabanova for a long time. She studied at VGIK in the camera department, and she and Eldar had a common group of friends. But after graduation, life took them in different directions. It was only by chance that Eldar and Lera met at creative events.
One day Eldar got bored while sitting at the St. Petersburg airport. The flight was delayed, and the young man went deep into social networks. On Valeria’s Facebook page, he saw that the girl was also online. He wrote to her: “Hello!” With this simple word their bright and unforgettable romance began. At that time, Lebedev did not yet know that the father of his new lover was the popular KVN player Pavel Kabanov, who played the role of Klara Zakharovna’s mother-in-law in the comedy series “33 Square Meters.”

Eldar really appreciates that Lera accepts him for who he is. “To be honest, it was more likely that I tried to change Leroux in some way, his character is like this: I always try to achieve perfection. But my wife accepted me unconditionally with all my shortcomings, problems, difficulties. He’s interested in everything that worries me, from cinema to business,” says the artist.
Childhood and adolescence
The future actor was born on November 30, 1985 in a family of entrepreneurs from the Kazakh city of Karaganda. The parents adored Soviet cinema and named their first child in honor of their favorite director Eldar Ryazanov. They dreamed of raising their son to be an educated and comprehensively developed personality, so they spared no time and effort in raising him.

In 1990, my mother signed Eldar up for ballroom dancing with a neighbor girl. The partner quit classes after a couple of months, but the boy stayed in the studio for ten whole years. He repeatedly became a prize-winner of various dance competitions and even entered the top three best dancers in Kazakhstan.
Eldar studied judo at the same time, did well in school, and in high school he attended a theater studio at the Valentin Bucic School of Arts. There he first appeared on stage in the role of Chatsky and since then “fell ill” with the theater.

By the age of fifteen, Eldar had already definitely decided on the choice of his future profession and announced his decision to his parents. They did not object, and in order to secure their son with a Russian certificate, they sent him to relatives in the Bashkir town of Uchaly. There the young man graduated from high school and went to storm Moscow theater universities.
Eldar Lebedev in his youth
At VGIK he did not pass the course of Alexey Batalov due to a competition; at GITIS there were places only in the paid department, but at the Shchepkinsky School he was more fortunate. Olga Nikolaevna Solomina immediately liked the young provincial, who, together with her husband Yuri Methodievich, recruited students to her workshop. She made Lebedev headman and even allowed Eldar to combine his studies with filming, which is usually not welcome in theater universities. This is how the first roles appeared in the filmography of the aspiring actor.

This was followed by work in the TV series “The Dead Field” (2006), which called into question his continued stay at the university. But, despite Lebedev’s frequent absence from classes, the teachers did not spoil the talented student’s life and allowed him to graduate from college with honors, for which Eldar is immensely grateful to them.

After graduation, the young actor made his choice in favor of cinema, realizing that combining acting on stage and filming would be incredibly difficult. He got to work with enthusiasm, starting his “adult” professional career with a leading role in the TV series “Emergency Call” (2007). Over the next ten years, Lebedev’s filmography was replenished with three dozen diverse works and vivid images, such as operative Mikhail Kaplevich in the TV series “Chief” (2011-15), Doctor Soloviev in the multi-series “Practice” (2014-18), Dima in “The Apple Orchard” "2011", Kostya Kovalchuk in "Resort Fog" (2013) and many others.

Few people know that Eldar organized an unusual business in Moscow in 2011 and was a co-founder of a company that specialized in aerial filming. One of his first clients was Timur Bekmambetov’s Bazelevs, who used spectacular footage taken from a helicopter in the comedy “Freaks” with Milla Jovovich and Konstantin Khabensky. True, with the advent of drones the business had to be closed, but it was an interesting experience in Lebedev’s creative biography.

"Our Prague wedding"
chimlon.info
Two years ago, Eldar and Lera had a luxurious wedding in Prague. The artist published pictures from the ceremony on his Instagram, accompanied by the caption: “Let me introduce – my wife is Valeria Lebedeva!” The Czech Republic was not chosen by chance for this joyful event. Eldar’s father, who supplies equipment for secondary schools and universities, has established business ties with this country.
“We painted in the Vrtbovsky Gardens. The garden was closed to the public and a small orchestra played a Robbie Williams tune. A man with a large medallion on his chest came from the magistracy to register the marriage. Lera and her father went down from the upper terrace of the garden to the rotunda in the lower tier, where we signed our names. And then everyone went out of town to Dobrish Castle, where their parents were waiting. The celebration was held in a beautiful hall with a painted blue ceiling and huge golden candelabra, silver cutlery lay on the tables,” Eldar shared these unforgettable moments of happiness.
