For many Russian moviegoers Denis Rozhkov is an actor of the series "Capercaillie", and few people know how rich his filmography is. How much does an actor earn if he has more than 40 films in his “piggy bank” and an impressive experience of acting on the stage? Is Denis Rozhkov married? How many children does he have? Where and how does his family live?
Fans of the legendary series about policemen "Capercaillie" are interested not only in the personal life of the leading actors who played in it, but also in the level of their income today, after the end of filming. What is Denis Rozhkov doing now, for example. How and how much does he earn?
Denis Rozhkov: "I escaped from the clutches of" Capercaillie"
For a long time this actor played episodic or secondary roles in the cinema, until the series "Capercaillie" burst into his life. The director's group of the project decided to entrust him with the role of one of the main characters - Denis Antoshin, and he coped with it perfectly. Rozhkov risked remaining the hero of "one novel", the hostage of the role, but this, fortunately, did not happen. Although, the role of an honest policeman was firmly entrenched in him.
Undoubtedly, "Capercaillie" continues to bring Denis a certain income even now - from rental, from sales to the CIS countries, to Russian TV channels. But Rozhkov earns not only on this sensational film. After "Capercaillie", he starred in 15 more films, and in most of them he worked in a completely different role. In addition, Denis Rozhkov is active on the stage of the theater. More recently, his creative piggy bank was replenished with the role of the Master from the legendary work of the great Bulgakov "The Master and Margarita".
How much does actor Denis Rozhkov earn?
Like many graduates of specialized acting educational institutions, Denis Rozhkov's fees at the start of his career were scanty - no more than 20,000 rubles a month, and sometimes even less.
He began acting in films quite late, only at the age of 27. His first role was in the third season of the popular TV series, and even then it was episodic. He played a young bandit, appeared on the screen for only a few minutes.
Serious income appeared only after he got the role of Denis Antoshin. After the end of the first season of "Capercaillie", the audience literally demanded to continue, the shooting of serials about secondary characters began, where Denis Rozhkov and his hero always had a place. The actor admits that it was this role that literally saved him and his family from poverty. After filming, he was able to give up part-time jobs outside of art. In one of his interviews, Rozhkov admitted that "hack" was humiliating for him, but at that time he had no other choice.
Now income has reached a new level, although it has decreased slightly after the end of work on the role of Antoshin. Now he and his family have their own apartment, they do not wander in the corners, as it was before. In addition, Denis and his family often go on vacation - both he and his wife and their son love to spend time at ski resorts.
Financial priorities of the actor Denis Rozhkov
Rozhkov says about himself financially: "I remained a responsible consumer, despite my star status." And no, he does not consider himself a star, he gives himself up to work as fully as he did before acquiring all-Russian fame and popularity.
Denis did not become a millionaire and never even tried on this status. In his understanding, people of this level are far from art, and he could not live without acting in the frame or on stage.
Denis Rozhkov cannot be called super-demanded, but this is not due to the fact that he is not invited to appear. He just chooses roles very carefully. The actor admits that even for a huge fee he will never agree to play a certain category of characters in low-level films. And this is worthy of respect.
Another unique financial priority of Denis is the complete rejection of loans and any loans. And the reason is not at all practical, but that the actor is simply afraid of them. Could it be uncertainty? Critics say she's overkill for an actor of this talent and level.
Denis Rozhkov's family
In the life of this representative of the new generation of Russian actors, there were only two novels, although journalists attributed to him relations with almost all partners in the theater stage or on the set.
For two years Denis met with a fellow student at the Moscow Art Theater School. The initiator of the beginning of the novel was the girl herself, because Rozhkov could not decide on anything more than sneaking glances at Elena Popova, whom he liked. The couple's relationship was not stormy, but more warm, filled with love and romantic silence. In the end, they simply disappeared.
Denis met his future wife Irina after graduation. The girl worked as a make-up artist, she still works in this profession. The couple officially formalized the relationship after the birth of their son Ivan in 1999.
During the period when there was no work, the young family lived only on what Irina brought to the house. Denis is very grateful to his wife for her patience, for the fact that she, in his own words, "did not send him to work as a manager or a security guard, she waited for success in acting."
The Rozhkov couple and their son live quite secluded, rarely attend social events, preferring to spend their free time at home as a threesome. As soon as there is a pause between filming and performances, Irina, Denis and Ivan go to rest. But due to the busyness of the head of the family, it has recently been possible to do this not as often as they would like.
