Biography
Parents play the most important role in a child's life. And not only because they gave life and raised them, but also because they directed them to the true path, helping them determine their future profession. There are many examples in the Russian cinematic and theatrical world when children follow in the footsteps of adults and, to the delight of the audience, choose acting. The list of family dynasties, in addition to the Mikhalkovs, Konchalovskys, Beroevs, is confidently continued by the Kokryatskys, where father, mother and daughter Yulia were devoted to stage activities.
Creative career

At the end of July 1988, on the 26th, a new addition occurred to the Moscow Kokryatsky family - their only daughter was born. The roles of her mother Irena are familiar to Soviet fans, and now to fans of domestic TV series. Father Igor worked exclusively on the theater stage. Therefore, having a worthy example of her elders before her eyes, Yulia dreamed of the world of art from her youth. When the girl turned 8 years old, her parents decided to divorce. And soon after the divorce, my father passed away.
Yulia Kokryatskaya as a child with her mother
Her childhood, starting from the age of 9 months, was spent in Ashgabat, with her grandparents - she returned to Russia before entering the 1st grade. The memories of a carefree time are the warmest: here her own courtyard was built for her, surrounded by a green fence and planted with flower beds. And for lunch, favorite delicacies were invariably served - pies, shortcakes and “homemade” dumplings interspersed with watermelons and melons.
To gnaw on the granite of science, Yulia did not go to a regular secondary school, but to a specialized one - already in the third year of study, theater was listed as one of the subjects taught. The knowledge gained was subsequently enough to get into the desired GITIS at the age of 15.
Yulia Kokryatskaya in her youth
As a graduation project at the university there was a play based on Ostrovsky, where the talented graduate shone in the title role of Alexandra Negina.
“Since the 3rd grade, my school had such a subject as theater. When the “teacher” was very pleased with someone’s sketch, she gave him a “six” in the journal. I was very proud that one day this “six” turned out to be a quarter grade for me. I graduated from school with a medal, and from college with honors,” the young woman once shared in an interview.

The full-length film “Other People’s Children” was released in 2015, and then Kokryatskaya again plunged into series, including “Destiny for Rent,” “Wind of Change,” “The Abduction of Eve,” “I will overcome everything,” etc. .
As for the girl’s attitude towards her heroines, she admitted that she tries not to accept offers to transform into narrow-minded women.
“A role that I would never agree to play is offered very often. A sort of “young lady obsessed with fashion magazines, shopping and men.” I don’t like and don’t know how to play stupid people, not naive, but limited in their development,” she explained.

Spit into eternity
This is what the performers themselves call 100% hits. Over the course of their entire singing career, not many people manage to “give birth” to a composition that will win the hearts of listeners. Yulia Akhonkova succeeded. Her song “Candy Taste” blew up the airwaves of music channels. You could hear it everywhere, and the chorus stuck so much that it was in your head and on your tongue all day long. No wonder one of the KVN teams chose her for their act and created a sensation many years later.
But you can’t go far with two songs - the blonde signs a contract with already famous producers - Joseph Prigozhin and Viktor Drobysh. Unfortunately, a miracle did not happen, and nothing good came from this union. The girl did not become a star. There wasn’t enough vocal talent or luck ran out - be that as it may, after this experience Prigogine swore off working with aspiring singers.
What did not suit the two producers, Vladimir Dubovitsky liked. He already had experience working with singers - his wives at one time were Tatyana Ovsienko and Irina Allegrova. He began to promote the girl with such alacrity that she soon gave birth to a son from him. But again it didn’t work out – neither career nor relationship.
