Popular Tatars. Last news

Since we are talking about the Tatars of St. Petersburg, I will say that the Tatar Muslim community has existed since the first days of the founding of St. Petersburg, since the Kazan province was one of the main suppliers of workers to the city under construction. There are two temples in St. Petersburg - the St. Petersburg Cathedral Mosque (St. Petersburg, Kronverksky pr., building 7) and the Memorial Mosque named after Mufti Zhafyar-hazrat Ponchaev (St. Petersburg, Repishcheva St., 1), the museum-apartment of L.N. Gumilyov, houses where prominent figures of the past M. Bigi, A.-R. Ibragimov, Tatar lane (building 1) near Kronverksky prospect; On the side of Zverinskaya Street in front of this house there is a square in which in 2006 a monument to the Tatar poet Gabdulla Tukay was solemnly opened - a gift from the Republic of Tatarstan to St. Petersburg. The choice of a place for the monument is due to the fact that the Tatar settlement of St. Petersburg was originally located here.

Tatars are the second largest ethnic group and the most numerous people of Muslim culture in Russian Federation.
There are different interpretations of the concept of "Tatars". This question is very relevant at the present time. Some researchers deduce the origin of this word from “mountain inhabitant”, where “tat” means “mountains”, and “ar” means “inhabitant”, “man”. Others - the etymology of the word "Tatars" to the ancient Greek "messenger".
The well-known Turkologist D.E. Eremov connects the origin of the word "Tatars" with the ancient Turkic word and people. He associates the first component of the word "tat" with the name of the ancient Iranian people. At the same time, he refers to the information of the ancient Turkic chronicler Mahmud Kashgari that the Turks called “tatam” those who speak Farsi, that is, the Iranian language. The original meaning of the word "tat" was most likely "Persian", but then this word in Rus' began to denote all the eastern and Asian peoples. Ethnonym "Tatars" - ancient origin, however, as a self-name of modern Tatars, it was adopted only in the 19th century, and the Ancient Tatars - Turkic tribes lived on the territory of today's Eurasia. The current Tatars (Kazan, Western, Siberian, Crimean) are not direct descendants of the ancient Tatars who came to Europe along with the troops of Genghis Khan. They formed into a single nation called the Tatars, after they were given such a name by the European peoples. There is an opinion of historians that the name "Tatars" came from the name of a large influential clan "Tata", from which many Turkic-speaking military leaders of the state "Altyn Urta" (Golden Mean), better known as the "Golden Horde" came from.

The Bulgar ancestors adopted the religion in 922, earlier than the Russians. Among the Tatars, science and art flourished even then. The best sons of the Tatar people studied not only in the Bulgarian madrasas, but also in Bukhara, Samarkand. The caravans of the ancient Bulgar merchants traveled not only in the Russian principalities, but also in Central Asia, Crimea, Caucasus, even across Scandinavia. Tatar jewelers and armourers delighted the whole world, the skillful leather made by our ancestors - "Bulgarian yuft" - went down in world history. Tatar ancestors were famous for their beautiful baths, eight-minaret majestic mosques; surrounded by high oak walls, artificial water channels, steep earthen ramparts, impregnable military fortresses. During the years of drought, the Great Bulgar sent bread in hundreds of boats, thereby saving the Russian people from starvation many times. The Bulgar people gave mankind the great Kul Gali. The Tatars smelted iron much earlier than the Russians, back in the 12th century. At a time when the Russian people, divided into hundreds of small principalities, waged an endless fratricidal war among themselves, the Great Bulgar was distinguished by unity and military power. That is why, and by no means by chance, when in 1223 the Russian troops on the Kalka River suffered a shameful defeat, our Bulgarian ancestors in the same year were the first in history to defeat the Mongol horde.

Tatars are one of the most mobile peoples. Due to lack of land, frequent crop failures in their homeland and the traditional craving for trade, even before 1917, they began to move to various regions. Russian Empire, including in the province of Central Russia, in the Donbass, in Eastern Siberia And Far East, North Caucasus and Transcaucasia, Central Asia and Kazakhstan. This migration process intensified during the years of Soviet rule, especially during the period of "great construction projects of socialism." Therefore, at present in the Russian Federation there is practically not a single subject of the federation, wherever the Tatars live. Even in the pre-revolutionary period, Tatar national communities were formed in Finland, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Turkey, and China.

According to many historians, the Tatar people with a single literary and practically common spoken language developed during the existence of a huge Turkic state - the Golden Horde. The literary language in this state was the so-called "Idel Terkise" or Old Tatar, based on the Kypchak-Bulgarian (Polovtsian) language and incorporating elements of the Central Asian literary languages. The modern literary language based on the middle dialect arose in the second half of the 19th and early 20th centuries.

In ancient times, the Turkic ancestors of the Tatars used runic writing, as evidenced by archaeological finds in the Urals and the Middle Volga region. From the moment of the voluntary adoption of Islam by one of the ancestors of the Tatars, the Volga-Kama Bulgars - the Tatars used the Arabic script, from 1929 to 1939 - the Latin script, since 1939 they use the Cyrillic alphabet with additional characters. The modern Tatar language is divided into four dialects: middle (Kazan Tatar), western (Mishar), eastern (language of the Siberian Tatars) and Crimean (language of the Crimean Tatars). Despite the dialectal and territorial differences, the Tatars are a single nation with a single literary language, a single culture - folklore, literature, music, religion, national spirit, traditions and rituals.

Tatar nation by literacy level(the ability to write and read in one's own language) even before the 1917 coup occupied one of the leading places in the Russian Empire. The traditional craving for knowledge has been preserved in the current generation.

Tatars are one of the most urbanized peoples of the Russian Federation. Social groups Tatars living both in cities and in villages are almost no different from those that exist among other peoples, primarily among Russians.

By way of life Tatars do not differ from other surrounding peoples. The modern Tatar ethnos originated in parallel with the Russian. Modern Tatars are the Turkic-speaking part of the indigenous population of Russia, which, due to its greater territorial proximity to the East, chose not Orthodoxy but Islam. 99% of believing Tatars are Sunni Muslims of the moderate Hanafi persuasion.

Many ethnologists point out unique phenomenon of Tatar tolerance which lies in the fact that in the entire history of the existence of the Tatars, they have not been the initiators of any conflict on ethnic and religious grounds. The most famous ethnologists and researchers are sure that tolerance is an invariable part of the Tatar national character.

Traditional food of the Tatars- meat, dairy and vegetable - soups seasoned with pieces of dough (tokmach-noodles, chumar), cereals, sourdough bread, kabartma cakes. National dishes - byalesh with a variety of fillings, often meat (peryamyach), cut into pieces and mixed with millet, rice or potatoes, unleavened pastry is widely represented in the form of bavyrsak, kosh tele, ichpochmak, gubadiya, katykly salma, chak-chak ( wedding dish). From horse meat (the favorite meat of many groups) they prepare dried sausage - kazylyk or kazy. Dried goose (kaklagan kaz) is considered a delicacy. Dairy products - katyk (a special kind of sour milk), sour cream, cottage cheese. Drinks - tea, airan (tan) - a mixture of katyk with water (used mainly in summer).

Tatars in all defensive and liberation wars have always taken an active part. According to the number of "Heroes" Soviet Union"The Tatars are in fourth place, and in terms of the percentage of the number of heroes for the whole nation - the first. In terms of the number of Heroes of Russia, the Tatars have the second place. From the Tatars, military leaders such as General of the Army M.A. Gareev, Colonel General P.S. Akchurin and F .Kh.Churakov, Vice-Admiral M.D.Iskanderov, Rear-Admirals Z.G.Lyapin, A.I.Bichurin and others. Valiev (physicist), R.A. Sunyaev (astrophysicist), and others.

Tatar literature is one of the oldest in the Russian Federation. The most ancient literary monument is the poem "The Tale of Yusuf" by the Bulgarian poet Kul Gali, written in 1236. Among the famous poets of the past are M. Sarai-Gulistani (XIV century), M. Mukhammadyar (1496/97-1552), G. Utyz-Imyani (1754-1834), G. Kandaly (1797-1860). Of the poets and writers of the 20th century - the classics of Tatar literature Gabdullu Tukay, Fatih Amirkhan, the writers of the Soviet period - Galimzyan Ibragimov, Hadi Taktash, Majit Gafuri, Hasan Tufan, the patriotic poet, Hero of the Soviet Union Musa Jalil, Sibgat Hakim and many other talented poets and writers.

One of the first among the Turkic peoples, the Tatars arose theatrical art.
The most prominent artists are: Abdulla Kariev, actor and playwright Karim Tinchurin, Khalil Abdzhalilov, Gabdulla Shamukov, actors Cast: Chulpan Khamatova, Marat Basharov Renata Litvinova, actor and director Sergei Shakurov, director Marcel Salimzhanov, opera singers- Khaidar Bigichev and Zilya Sungatullina, folk singers Ilgam Shakirov and Alfiya Afzalova, popular artists- Rinat Ibragimov, Alsou, Zemfira Ramazanova, Salavat Fatkhutdinov, Aidar Galimov, Malika Razakova, young poet and musician Rustam Alyautdinov.

Fine art of the Tatars: First of all, this is the artist-patriarch Baki Urmanche, and many other outstanding Tatar artists.

Great scientists and writers

Tatars faithfully served the Fatherland, not only fighting for it in countless wars. In peaceful life they gave him a lot famous people scientists, writers, artists. Suffice it to name such scientists as Mendeleev, Mechnikov, Pavlov and Timiryazev, researchers of the North Chelyuskin and Chirikov. In literature, these are Dostoevsky, Turgenev, Yazykov, Bulgakov, Kuprin. In the field of art - ballerinas Anna Pavlova, Galina Ulanova, Olga Spesivtseva, Rudolf Nureyev, as well as composers Skryabin and Taneyev. All of them are Russians of Tatar origin.

The sports achievements of the Tatars also constantly make themselves felt.:
Wrestling - Shazam Safin, champion Olympic Games 1952 in Helsinki in Greco-Roman wrestling.
Rhythmic gymnastics - Olympic champion and multiple world champion Alina Kabaeva, world champions Amina Zaripova and Laysan Utyasheva.
Football - Rinat Dasaev, goalkeeper No. 1 in the world in 1988, goalkeeper of the Spartak team, members of the 2002 World Cup football team, attacking midfielder of the Russian national team Marat Izmailov (Lokomotiv Moscow), winner of the Russian Cup 2000/01; silver medalist of the Russian Championship in 2001, and goalkeeper of the Russian national team, KAMAZ (Naberezhnye Chelny); "Spartak Moscow); Lokomotiv (Moscow); "Verona" (Italy) Ruslan Nigmatullin, Hockey - Irek Gimaev, Sergei Gimaev, Zinetula Bilyaletdinov, Tennis World Champion Marat Safin, and many many others.

Famous Russians come from Tatar families

Many famous noble families of Russia have Tatar roots. Apraksins, Arakcheevs, Dashkovs, Derzhavins, Yermolovs, Sheremetevs, Bulgakovs, Gogols, Golitsyns, Milyukovs, Godunovs, Kochubeys, Stroganovs, Bunins, Kurakins, Saltykovs, Saburovs, Mansurovs, Tarbeevs, Godunovs, Yusupovs - it’s impossible to list them all. By the way, the origin of the Counts Sheremetevs, in addition to the surname, is also confirmed by the family coat of arms, on which there is a silver crescent. The nobles Ermolovs, for example, where General Alexei Petrovich Ermolov came from, the pedigree begins like this: "The ancestor of this family Arslan-Murza-Yermola, and by baptism named John, as shown in the presented pedigree, in 1506 went to Grand Duke Vasily Ivanovich from the Golden Horde ." Rus' was fabulously enriched at the expense of the Tatar people, talents flowed like a river. The princes Kurakins appeared in Rus' under Ivan III, this family comes from Ondrey Kurak, who was the offspring of the Horde Khan Bulgak, the recognized ancestor of the Great Russian princes Kurakins and Golitsyns, as well as the noble family of Bulgakovs. Chancellor Alexander Gorchakov, whose family was descended from the Tatar ambassador Karach-Murza. The nobles of the Dashkovs are also from the Horde. And the Saburovs, Mansurovs, Tarbeevs, Godunovs (from Murza Chet, who left the Horde in 1330), Glinskys (from Mamai), Kolokoltsevs, Talyzins (from Murza Kuchuk Tagaldyzin) ... A separate conversation is desirable about each clan - a lot, a lot they did for Russia. Every Russian patriot has heard about Admiral Ushakov, and only a few know that he is a Turk. This clan comes from the Horde Khan Redeg. The princes of Cherkasy are descended from the khan's family of Inal. “As a sign of allegiance,” it is written in their genealogy, “he sent his son Saltman and daughter Princess Maria to the sovereign, who later was married to Tsar John Vasilyevich, and Saltman was named Mikhail by baptism and was granted a boyar.”

But even by the named surnames it is clear that the Tatar blood greatly influenced the gene pool of the Russian people A. Among the Russian nobility there are more than 120 famous Tatar families. In the sixteenth century, Tatars dominated among the nobles. Even by the end of the nineteenth century in Russia, there were approximately 70 thousand nobles with Tatar roots. This amounted to more than 5 percent of the total number of nobles throughout the Russian Empire.

A lot of Tatar nobility disappeared forever for their people. This is well told by the genealogical books of the Russian nobility: "The General Heraldry of the Noble Clans of the All-Russian Empire", begun in 1797, or "The History of the Clans of the Russian Nobility", or "The Russian Genealogical Book". Historical novels pale before them.

The Yushkovs, Suvorovs, Apraksins (from Salakhmir), Davydovs, Yusupovs, Arakcheevs, Golenishchev-Kutuzovs, Bibikovs, Chirikovs... The Chirikovs, for example, came from the clan of Khan Berke, brother of Batu. Polivanovs, Kochubeys, Kozakovs...

Kopylovs, Aksakovs (aksak means "lame"), Musins-Pushkins, Ogarkovs (the first from the Golden Horde came in 1397, Lev Ogar, "a man of great stature and a brave warrior"). The Baranovs... In their pedigree it is written as follows: "The ancestor of the Baranov family, Murza Zhdan, nicknamed Baran, and named Daniel by baptism, came in 1430 from the Crimea."

Karamzins (from Kara-Murza, a Crimean), Almazovs (from Almazy, named Erifei by baptism, he came from the Horde in 1638), Urusovs, Tukhachevskys (their ancestor in Russia was Indris, a native of the Golden Horde), Kozhevnikovs (coming from Murza Kozhaya, since 1509 in Russia), Bykovs, Ievlevs, Kobyakovs, Shubins, Taneevs, Shuklins, Timiryazevs (there was such Ibragim Timiryazev, who came to Russia in 1408 from the Golden Horde).

Chaadaevs, Tarakanovs... and it will take a long time to continue. Dozens of so-called "Russian clans" were founded by the Tatars.

The Moscow bureaucracy grew. Power was gathering in her hands, Moscow really did not have enough educated people. Is it any wonder that the Tatars also became carriers of more than three hundred simple Russian surnames. In Russia, at least half of the Russians are genetic Tatars.

In the 18th century, the rulers of Russia tailored the current ethnographic map, tailored it in their own way, as they wanted: they recorded entire provinces as "Slavic". So Russia became the one about which the Kipchak from the Tukhum (clan) Turgen said: "Russia is thousands of miles around."

Then, in the XVIII century - only two hundred years ago - the inhabitants of Tambov, Tula, Oryol, Ryazan, Bryansk, Voronezh, Saratov and other regions were called "Tatars". This is the former population of the Golden Horde. That's why ancient cemeteries in Ryazan, Orel or Tula are still called Tatar.

Defenders of the Fatherland

Tatar warriors honestly served Russia. "Be not only the son of your father, but also be the son of your Fatherland" - says the Tatar folk proverb. The fact that Tatars and Russians supposedly always opposed each other religiously is a myth invented by our common enemies. During the war of 1812, 28 Tatar-Bashkir regiments were formed in the Kazan province. It was these regiments under the command of Kutuzov's son-in-law, the Tatar prince Kudashev, an active participant in the Battle of Borodino, that terrified the Napoleonic soldiers. The Tatar regiments, together with the Russian people, liberated the European peoples from the occupation of the Napoleonic troops.

In the army, due to the national and religious characteristics of the Tatars, a number of indulgences were made, based on respect for the religion they professed. The Tatars were not given pork, they were not subjected to corporal punishment, they were not drilled. In the Navy, Russian sailors were given a glass of vodka, and Tatars - for the same amount - tea and sweets. They were not forbidden to bathe several times a day, as is customary among Muslims before each prayer. Their colleagues were strictly forbidden to mock the Tatars and say bad things about Islam.

In his Autobiography, Rudolf Nureyev wrote about his Tatar roots: “My mother was born in the beautiful ancient city of Kazan. We are Muslims. My father was born in a small village near Ufa, the capital of the Republic of Bashkiria. Thus, on both sides, our relatives are Tatars and Bashkirs. I can't define exactly what it means for me to be a Tatar and not a Russian, but I feel this difference in myself. Our Tatar blood flows somehow faster and is always ready to boil. And yet it seems to me that we are more sluggish than Russians, more sensual; we have a certain Asiatic softness and at the same time the ardor of our ancestors, these magnificent thin horsemen. We are a strange mixture of tenderness and rudeness, a combination that is rare among Russians; this is probably why I found such closeness with many of Dostoevsky's characters. Tatars quickly ignite, quickly climb into a fight. They are arrogant, but at the same time passionate, and at times cunning, like foxes. Tatar - good complex animal traits - and this is what I am.

A native of Kazan, Chulpan Khamatova was born on October 1, 1975 in a family of engineers. The actress has studied at a mathematical school and entered the Kazan Financial and Economic Institute. According to Khamatova herself, she did not study there for a day.

“I could not immediately pick up the documents, because I had no guarantees that I would enter this theater school and, in general, whether they were waiting for me there and how they would react. Therefore, when I began to understand that they would take me and that they would accept me, I sent my mother and she took my documents from the financial academy, ”said the actress.

Now it is difficult to imagine that teachers could doubt the abilities of Chulpan Khamatova. The theater school was followed by GITIS, and then roles in theater and cinema. Many viewers discovered her after the role of Rita in Valery Todorovsky's film "Country of the Deaf".

Last year alone, the foundation donated about 2.24 billion rubles for medicines, medical equipment and treatment for Russian children. Khamatova herself has three daughters.

A year ago, the actress was awarded the title of "Honorary Citizen of Kazan". Khamatova arrived at the award ceremony at the Kazan City Hall and received an award from Mayor Ilsur Metshin.

“The image of Chulpan was with me. And when the text was created and when the script was discussed at the film school, finalized, then written. And I have only one answer - I see Chulpan Khamatova in the title role, ”said Guzel Yakhina.

Especially for filming The village of Semruk was built on the banks of the Kama. Khamatova is already posting photos from the filming on social networks, most of which will take place in the Laishevsky district of Tatarstan.

Shamil Khamatov

10 years after the birth of Chulpan, a boy, Shamil, was born in the family of Nail Akhmetovich and Marina Galiullovna Khamatov. Much less is known about his childhood than about the life of his older sister in Kazan. In her footsteps, he went to GITIS, which he graduated in 2005. Immediately after that, Shamil Khamatov was accepted into the troupe of the Sovremennik Theater, where his older sister has been working since 1998. The role of Sevka Goryaev in the play "The Naked Pioneer" based on the novel by Mikhail Kononov was the actor's debut on this stage.

The actor became an honored guest of the IX Kazan International Muslim Film Festival in 2013. Then he then admitted: work in the theater brings him more pleasure than filming a movie.

“Each performance is always different, allowing you to discover yourself in a new way. The play is a living organism. This is a constant search, constant development, a constant process of reflection. In the cinema, everything is simpler: there are no rehearsals, you need to come, turn to the camera in the right direction, pronounce the text. And that's where it often ends. In addition, there are a lot of technical moments in the cinema, which I don’t like, since the person himself is not very organized, ”the actor said.

Three years later he returned to hometown with the first tour of the Sovremennik Theater for Kazan. In the year of its 60th anniversary, the team presented the performances "Three Comrades", where Khamatov plays Robert Lokamp, as well as " The Cherry Orchard”, “Two on a swing” and “Woe from Wit”.

Despite the fact that the theater is closer to Khamatov, he also acts in films. For example, in the 2013 family film The Toy Seller, the actor worked on the same set with Pierre Richard. During his visit to Kazan, he told how the shooting of a good Russian-French film went on and about his relationship with Richard.

“Pierre Richard is an amazing person, the level of his professionalism is amazing. He behaves very modestly, does not require undue attention. He always listens first to what the director says to him, and then carefully begins to make his suggestions. During rehearsals, he improvises so talentedly that the director includes these improvisations in the script without any doubt, ”recalls Khamatov.

According to Shamil, he did not manage to communicate with famous actor, since he does not know French, and Richard does not speak English.

Shamil Khamatov often posts family pictures on his Instagram. For example, he recently posted photos with his older sister Chulpan and her daughter Iya. All of them are captured against the backdrop of autumn landscapes.

Rinal Mukhametov

One of the main roles in the sensational Russian film "Temporary Difficulties" was played by a native of the Tatarstan village of Alekseevskoye Rinal Mukhametov. He studied at the Kazan Theater School and thought he would be a pop clown. But in the second year, teachers advised Rinal to go to Moscow, since Kirill Serebrennikov was gaining a course at the Moscow Art Theater School. The actor recalls that he was afraid to go, because he has been suffering from stuttering since childhood.

“The fact is that on stage or in the frame I stutter less. I can not explain this phenomenon and, unfortunately, it does not always work. At the audition, I turned away, snapped my fingers - and my speech changed, I read without hesitation, ”says Mukhametov.

As a result, he got on the course, from which in 2012 Kirill Serebrennikov created the Seventh Studio theater troupe. Now Rinal Mukhametov serves at the Gogol Center.

The media have repeatedly called Mukhametov the new sex symbol of Russian cinema, and he only confirms this status with his roles in theater and cinema. For example, in the film adaptation of The Three Musketeers by Sergei Zhigunov, he played d'Artagnan, and in the serial historical film"Catherine" - the lover of the future empress. Rinal became a real star after the release of Fyodor Bondarchuk's blockbuster "Attraction" in 2017. Mukhametov played one of the main roles - the alien Hakon, who is trying to understand people.

The heart of this handsome man with a magnetic look is already taken. Rinal is happy in his second marriage with his wife Susanna and is raising their daughter Evia. The actor lives in Moscow, and his relatives remained in Tatarstan.

“I grew up in the working settlement of Alekseevskoye, which is located 100 km from Kazan. People close to me still live and work there. Mom is an accountant at the company. There is a younger sister Angelina, she is 25 years old. She recently moved to Kazan. Alas, it is not often possible to visit places familiar from childhood, but I do not forget my village. Every second inhabitant of Alekseevsky is a relative for me. I know that the neighbors are following my work, and this is a huge support, ”admits Rinal.

Behind this guy are three professional schools- Kazan Theater School, GITIS and the Academy of Cinematographic and Theater Arts by Nikita Mikhalkov. By the way, he became the first student of the academy from Tatarstan.

“I entered the theater school the first time, GITIS - the third attempt, and auditioned for Moscow theaters for seven years! But all this time I believed that I would be an actor, ”admits Sergey.

After the theater school, he worked for four years in the troupe of the Tver Youth Theater, where he played in the play "Tartuffe" by Moliere, in the production of "The Kabbalah of the Saints" by Bulgakov and in the fairy tale "About Ivan the Fool." Bataev calls this theater the most lively theater in the Upper Volga region, ready for experiments, and admits that he was happy to play there, but he wanted to develop and left for Moscow. There he entered GITIS, and then - the Mikhalkov Academy.

This year, the name of Bataev sounded in a new way. At the XIV Kazan International Muslim Film Festival, Sergey presented his debut short film "The Old Warrior". main role it was performed by People's Artist of the USSR Vladimir Etush.

The plot of the film "The Old Warrior" is dedicated to a weak old man who is eager to go to war in order to bring the day of victory closer. But her attempts to escape only interfere with her daughter, who is forced to bear all the hardships of village life alone. After another such attempt, she locks her father at home, where he quietly dies, without waiting for the main message.

The filmed story is a tribute to the memory of the great-grandfather of Sergei Bataev, who did not live to see the victory for several hours. The actor and director were named after him.

“My great-grandfather kept repeating that the main thing for him in life was to live to win ... but this was not destined to come true. And I always felt some kind of duty to him, which I have now fulfilled, ”said Sergey.

Now Bataev continues to play in the theater. The other day, he posted a photo on Instagram with the caption: “The theater season was opened with the performance “Clinical Case” together with @artpartner_theatre. Let my theatrical season be as bright, cheerful and filled with surprises of the desired roles.”

Rosa Khairullina

The tragic actress Roza Khairullina, by her own admission, became in demand at the age of 37. She was born in Norilsk, but from the age of 12 she lived in Zelenodolsk.

Even in elementary school, Rosa thought about the career of an actress and was constantly involved in drama circles. After leaving school, she entered the Kazan Theater School and, as a student, played on the stage of the Kamal Theater. For fifteen years Khairullina worked in the troupe of the Kazan Youth Theater. In 1992, the actress was awarded the State Prize of the Russian Federation for her role in the play "Pogrom" based on the novel by Boris Vasilyev "And there was evening, and there was morning ..." directed by Boris Zeitlin. In 1996, Shakespeare's production of The Tempest won the Golden Mask Award.

“I worked for fifteen years at the Kazan Youth Theater. There I had an apartment, relatives and friends. She lost everything in an instant: her brother was a drug addict, he mortgaged the apartment, then he died - the apartment went for debts. Within six months, my whole family, seven people, died. Father, mother and all the rest. Life was divided into “before” and “after”, I remained in the “before”,” the actress recalls about this difficult period of life.

After a fire at the Youth Theater in 1996, Khairullina left Kazan for Holland, where she worked for a year. Then she moved to Samara - got a job at the SamArt Theater. Rosa was moved to Moscow by the Russian theater director Konstantin Bogomolov, with whom they rehearsed Olesya at SamArt. Now Khairullina is the leading actress of the Oleg Tabakov Theater Studio and the Moscow Art Theater.

Since 2009, she has played several episodic roles in films, and her role in the film "The Horde" directed by Andrei Proshkin brought Khairullina recognition from colleagues and viewers.

Every nation has the right to be proud of the most famous representatives of its nation, and In this regard, the Tatars are no exception! We know, remember and respect famous representatives of the Tatar people!

This article is only the beginning of a long story on our website, and it should be emphasized that many famous people belong not only to Tatar history, but also to the history of Russia, the USSR, Mari El, Bashkortostan and other regions of our vast country.
For the same reason, many of the named personalities are controversial, such as, for example, Mamich Berdei, Kuzma Minin or Alexander Matrosov, because they were recognized by other nationalities, so we ask you not to be offended by Russians, Maris, Mordovians, Bashkirs - if representatives of their nationalities, because we have one country!

the most famous Tatars

Separately, the article provides data on those figures who descended from Tatars by father or mother, or have a distant Tatar origin, despite Russian names and surnames!
There are articles on the Internet about what he himself President Putin - has Tatar roots, allegedly on the maternal side, and this is proved by the structure of his face, the style of government and other points. In particular, Putin often comes to Tatarstan, and especially loves the Sabantuy holiday (by the way, in a skullcap - he is a real Tatar!). The recent return of Crimea to Russia is a process of restoration of the Turkic peoples within the former Russian Empire!
We won’t talk about the President’s connections with the famous Tatar athlete…
Separately, we note that it is under Putin that Tatarstan is developing more dynamically than its neighbors along the Volga and the Urals! In the media, we note separately, there are even several articles on the topic “why Putin loves the Tatars”!

Venera Gimadieva (born May 28, 1984, Kazan) - soloist of the State Academic Bolshoi Theater Russia, laureate of the N. Rimsky-Korsakov International Competition (St. Petersburg, 2008), diploma winner of the International Opera Singers Competition (Dresden, 2009), winner of the 1st prize at the International Chaliapin Competition "Voices over the Reach" (2010), laureate of the Prize of the President of the Russian Federation for young cultural figures in 2011.

From the history of Rus', according to genealogical records, many noble families had Tatar roots. Somehow it doesn’t fit in my head that the Tatars, who plundered Rus' for more than 2 centuries, were quite calmly accepted by the Boyars of Rus' into their ranks without any restrictions on their rights. Moreover, the descendants of these families were considered Russian, and many were close associates of the Russian tsars.
Famous Russians come from Tatar families!

Many famous noble families of Russia have Tatar roots.
Apraksins, Arakcheevs, Dashkovs, Derzhavins, Yermolovs, Sheremetevs, Bulgakovs, Gogols, Golitsyns, Milyukovs, Godunovs, Kochubeys, Stroganovs, Bunins, Kurakins, Saltykovs, Saburovs, Mansurovs, Tarbeevs, Godunovs, Yusupovs - not to list them all.
By the way, the origin of the Counts Sheremetevs, in addition to the surname, is also confirmed by the family coat of arms, on which there is a silver crescent.
The nobles Ermolovs, for example, where General Alexei Petrovich Ermolov came from, the pedigree begins like this: "The ancestor of this family Arslan-Murza-Yermola, and by baptism named John, as shown in the presented pedigree, in 1506 went to Grand Duke Vasily Ivanovich from the Golden Horde ."
The princes Kurakins appeared in Rus' under Ivan III, this family comes from Ondrey Kurak, who was the offspring of the Horde Khan Bulgak, the recognized ancestor of the Great Russian princes Kurakins and Golitsyns, as well as the noble family of Bulgakovs. Chancellor Alexander Gorchakov, whose family was descended from the Tatar ambassador Karach-Murza. The nobles of the Dashkovs are also from the Horde.
And the Saburovs, Mansurovs, Tarbeevs, Godunovs (from Murza Chet, who left the Horde in 1330), Glinskys (from Mamai), Kolokoltsevs, Talyzins (from Murza Kuchuk Tagaldyzin) ... A separate conversation is desirable about each clan - a lot, a lot they did for Russia.
Every Russian patriot has heard about Admiral Ushakov, and only a few know that he is a Turk. This clan comes from the Horde Khan Redeg.
The princes of Cherkasy are descended from the khan's family of Inal. “As a sign of allegiance,” it is written in their genealogy, “he sent his son Saltman and daughter Princess Maria to the sovereign, who later was married to Tsar John Vasilyevich, and Saltman was named Mikhail by baptism and was granted a boyar.”

Among the Russian nobility there are more than 120 famous Tatar families. In the sixteenth century, Tatars dominated among the nobles. Even by the end of the nineteenth century in Russia, there were approximately 70 thousand nobles with Tatar roots. This amounted to more than 5 percent of the total number of nobles throughout the Russian Empire.
The Yushkovs, Suvorovs, Apraksins (from Salakhmir), Davydovs, Yusupovs, Arakcheevs, Golenishchev-Kutuzovs, Bibikovs, Chirikovs... The Chirikovs, for example, came from the clan of Khan Berke, brother of Batu. Polivanovs, Kochubeys, Kozakovs...
Kopylovs, Aksakovs (aksak means "lame"), Musins-Pushkins, Ogarkovs (the first from the Golden Horde came in 1397, Lev Ogar, "a man of great stature and a brave warrior"). The Baranovs... In their pedigree it is written as follows: "The ancestor of the Baranov family, Murza Zhdan, nicknamed Baran, and named Daniel by baptism, came in 1430 from the Crimea."

Karaulovs, Ogarevs, Akhmatovs, Bakaevs, Gogol, Berdyaevs, Turgenevs ... "The ancestor of the Turgenev family, Murza Lev Turgen, and by baptism named John, went to Grand Duke Vasily Ioannovich from the Golden Horde ..." This family belonged to the aristocratic Horde tukhum , as well as the Ogarev family (their Russian ancestor is "Murza with an honest name Kutlamamet, nicknamed Ogar").
Karamzins (from Kara-Murza, a Crimean), Almazovs (from Almazy, named Erifei by baptism, he came from the Horde in 1638), Urusovs, Tukhachevskys (their ancestor in Russia was Indris, a native of the Golden Horde), Kozhevnikovs (coming from Murza Kozhaya, since 1509 in Russia), Bykovs, Ievlevs, Kobyakovs, Shubins, Taneevs, Shuklins, Timiryazevs (there was such Ibragim Timiryazev, who came to Russia in 1408 from the Golden Horde).
Chaadaevs, Tarakanovs... and it will take a long time to continue. Dozens of so-called "Russian clans" were founded by the Tatars.

Gizy Kazykhanovich Zagitov (August 20, 1921 - August 23, 1953) - a veteran of the Great Patriotic War, on April 30, 1945 at 22 hours 40 minutes, as part of an assault group under the command of the guard captain V. N. Makov, one of the first hoisted the Red Banner over the Reichstag building in Berlin. At the same time, Zagitov was wounded in the chest through and through, but continued the fight. Tatar by nationality.
Above the main entrance, the sculptural group "Germany" is visible, on which the Makov assault group hoisted a red flag at 22:40 on April 30, 1945.
Zagitov G.K. was born on August 20, 1921 in the Mishar village of Yanagushevo, Mishkinsky district of the BASSR (USSR), drafted into the Red Army on October 19, 1940. His combat path ran to Berlin, where he fought in the reconnaissance of the 136th Army Cannon Artillery Brigade of the 79th Rifle Corps of the 3rd Shock Army with the rank of sergeant.
On April 27, 1945, assault groups of volunteers were formed as part of the corps to capture the Reichstag and establish the Red Banner. One of them, consisting of 25 people, was headed by Captain V.N. Makov. The group acted jointly with the battalion of Captain S. A. Neustroev. By the evening of April 28, the troops crossed the Spree from the Moabit region along the Moltke bridge (now Willy-Brandt-Straße) and left from the northwest side to the Reichstag. Zagitov, together with senior sergeants M.P. Minin, A.F. Lisimenko, sergeant A.P. Bobrov from the group of V.N. Makov, broke into the Reichstag building. Unnoticed by the enemy, they found a locked door and knocked it out with a log. Climbing up to the attic, through the dormer window they made their way to the roof above the western (front) pediment of the building. They installed a banner in the hole in the crown of the sculpture of the Goddess of Victory.
M. P. Minin recalled:
“Giya Zagitov ran ahead, who prudently took a flashlight with him. It was with them that he illuminated the path along the dilapidated stairs. We threw grenades at all the corridors leading to it and combed it with automatic bursts ...
In front of the attic, I stocked up on the go with a “pole”, tearing a one and a half meter thin-walled tube from the wall.

Having reached the spacious attic, we were faced with the problem of how to get to the roof. And G. Zagitov helped out again by highlighting the cargo winch and two massive chains going somewhere upstairs with a flashlight. Using the links of this chain, through the dormer window, we climbed onto the roof above the western pediment of the building. And here at the tower, barely visible in the darkness, Zagitov and I began to attach the Red Banner. Suddenly, against the backdrop of a fiery glow from a shell exploding on the roof, Lisimenko noticed our daily landmark - a sculptural group: a bronze horse and a huge figure of a woman in a crown. We immediately decided that it would be better to set up a banner there.
The guys put me on the croup of a horse shuddering from the explosions of shells and mines, and I fixed the banner in the crown of a bronze giantess ...
Timed out. It was 10:40 p.m. local time."

For example, when Sabir Akhtyamov, Hero of the Soviet Union, tank destroyer, with his height of 164 cm, the commander decided to remove him from the parade, the hero was indignant:
