She passed away almost seven years ago, leaving dozens of films and songs for millions of fans. Recently, in the studio of the “Let Them Talk” program on Channel One, the actress’s close friend, photographer and stylist Aslan Akhmadov, showed for the first time several unique videos that, by the will of fate, became latest entries stars.
“They gave me a DVR for my car; it stuck to the glass like a suction cup and kept falling, but continued to record something. At some point I got angry and threw it into the glove compartment,” said the photographer.
A few years later, when he was about to sell his car, Aslan remembered the DVR and discovered a flash card. Having checked its contents, Akhmadov was shocked to discover video recordings of Lyudmila Markovna, unknown even to him.
Lyudmila Gurchenko. Still from the program “Let Them Talk”The stylist said that during their joint trips in the car, Gurchenko often voiced her most intimate experiences and often talked about death. An actress to the core, she carefully thought through even her departure: she came up with an outfit for her farewell and described the makeup that needed to be applied to her face:
“To die... But it’s too early. I haven’t sewn the last dress yet, there’s still about a kilo and a half of beads. Aslan, you have to make me up, put this dress on me.
I want everything to be very polite, delicate at the funeral. There should be a lot of colors, but not in the face! Let people sort them out later, I always give out bouquets. I just want everything to happen quickly, my face should be fresh. Some, of course, will say: “Well, with age she has become nothing, she has become wiser, but that freshness is no longer there,” Lyudmila Markovna thought out loud.

Aslan Akhmadov - Russian stylist and professional photographer Azerbaijani origin. Fans of show business saw the man in films as an actor, heard Akhmadov perform songs in the style of modern pop music and classic jazz.

Nevertheless, school knowledge Akhmadov had enough to enter higher education educational institution. But even then the guy understood that he needed a creative profession, so he chose the directing department of the Azerbaijan Academy of Arts.
Creation
Soon the young man left for Russia, where he began his career as a photographer in the capital’s publications “ELLE”, “MAXIM”, “BEAUTY”, “DOLCE VITA”.
Basically, Aslan Akhmadov photographed the stars of Russian show business and sports. Author's approach young photographer allowed me to find an unusual angle. The artist showed the audience the frank, intimate side of the models, and in such a way that the images were not of an erotic nature. For the 90s, such shooting was an innovation.
One of Aslan’s favorite fashion models was the great film actress Lyudmila Gurchenko, with whom he had a close friendship. It was done by Akhmadov famous photo“The Hands of Lyudmila Markovna Gurchenko”, which in November 2012 was sold for a fabulous sum at the Phillips de Pury auction in London.
Some representatives of show business consider Aslan to be the last love of the People's Artist. When Lyudmila Markovna was in Moscow, she walked arm in arm with Aslan Akhmadov. Later on the program, the woman made it clear that she was in love.
Akhmadov pointed out in an interview that the photographer and the great artist were connected by close cooperation, friendship, and on the part of the stylist, admiration for Gurchenko’s talent.
In November 2015, Aslan Akhmadov opened an exhibition entitled “My Lyusya”, dedicated to the work of Lyudmila Markovna. In the photo exhibition, the author presented joint portraits and short films. Later the exhibition was held in Kostroma.
At the beginning of the 21st century, Aslan Akhmadov, together with two other immigrants from the Caucasus, David Gevorkov and Alexander Siradekian, created the fashion trio “Fresh Art”. Theoretically, they can be called music group, because they performed several songs, including the hit “High,” which he sang with them. But first of all, the guys positioned themselves as free fashion designers trying to bring a sense of style to the stage.
The guys designed clothes and accessories not only for themselves. Wearing stylists' clothes appeared in public Opera singer, a shocking rocker, tennis players - the Williams sisters and other celebrities. Personally, Akhmadov acted as a stylist for Russian stars, and, of course, Lyudmila Gurchenko.
Later, the “Fresh Art” trio, including Aslan Akhmadov, appeared as TV presenters in the series of “Fashion Police” programs, and then the young man independently became a co-author and photographer of the television project “Indian Summer”.
In 2011, Aslan became a member of the Union of Photographers of Russia.
In 2012, Akhmadov remembered his specialized education as a director and shot a video clip for the song “Letting You Go” for singer Philip Kirkorov.
Music
The young man continued to sing. The duet with the Ukrainian performer Irina Bilyk “We Are Not There”, the jazz song “For Three Years I Dreamed of You”, performed together with Oleg Akkuratov, as well as solo hits – “There”, which became the soundtrack in the series “While the Fern Blooms”, “ Your Traces”, a remake of the hit “Echo of Love”.
For Bilyk, Aslan shot a video for the song “Little Girl”. Later they performed a joint composition “For all of us there is simply no.”
In 2016, the singer went to try his hand at. The artist himself said that his wife sent him to the casting, threatening him with divorce. Aslan, laughing, added that his wife had a wonderful sense of humor, but just in case, he did not take risks.
Aslan brilliantly passed the blind audition and made it into the team. But Akhmadov could not defeat his teammate. As a result, Gagarina said goodbye to the talented musician.
Movies
The directors could not ignore the spectacular and shocking guy Aslan Akhmadov. Therefore, in 2006, he made his debut as an actor. First projects young man The adventure comedy “9 Months” and the humorous musical “Star Holidays” appeared on the screen.
Later, Akhmadov appeared in episodes of the youth black comedy “Gloss”, the melodrama “Moscow, I love you!” and the biographical film “Legend. Lyudmila Gurchenko." The man appeared in the musical about a blind musician, “Motley Twilight.”
Personal life
According to Aslan Akhmadov himself, he was married three times. But if there is no information about the first two spouses, then the artist’s third wife was the famous Ukrainian singer Irina Bilyk. It is interesting that the couple hid the official marriage and the very fact of the relationship. The truth was revealed only after the birth of their child together.
In fact, the “pregnancy” took place in secret from the public, which in principle is not surprising: she carried the baby for Aslan and Irina surrogate mother. In 2015, Akhmadov and Bilyk became the parents of a boy, who was named Tabriz Aslan-ogly in the Azerbaijani manner.
That’s when the couple admitted that they had been married since 2013. True, the photographer and singer live in two countries, because Bilyk is building a career in the Ukrainian capital, and Aslan Akhmadov’s creative studio is based in Moscow. The man often comes to visit his wife and son.
The story of how the future spouses met is interesting. Irina said that she first saw Aslan on a program dedicated to Lyudmila Gurchenko. Then she drew attention to the young man, and an inner voice told the singer to find Akhmadov. Through friends, Irina found out Aslan’s phone number and called the photographer. He answered the call and wasn’t even surprised. A week later they met in a Moscow cafe.
Before meeting Aslan, Bilyk had informal relationships several times. Akhmadov became the first official husband of the Ukrainian diva.
