Premiere of Alexei Buldakov starring in the video of VALENKI vodka
"I have a special attitude toward the VALENKI vodka..." - Alex Buldakov
We were able to meet the main hero of the film "The New Adventures of foreigners in Russia"– the People's Artist of Russia, the famous character of folklore Alexei Buldakov, on June 10th, in the popular club "Barry White" at the premiere of the video. We asked him more details about our national traditions, slow-witted foreigners beautiful, Russian women in sundresses and kokoshniki, bears and greyhounds, and how does VALENKI vodka fit in.
"I do not drink a lot, but I have a special attitude toward the VALENKI vodka. Soft, fragrant, warm inside is a real, native, Russian one"- so our conversation began.
"And, of course, for foreigners it is difficult to immediately understand why we are in a good mood even in the most severe frosts , are warm at heart, with a house full of fun friends, and work and leisure at the same time. Why we are always hospitable and happy to receive a guest, and our girls are the most beautiful. All this with amazing accuracy was noticed by our irrepressible director and producer Sultan Hazhiroko, known as Sultan-Hurricane, with sparkling humor embodied in this hilarious movie. And without our beloved national product - vodka - we, of course, cannot do - and the world becomes more beautiful and girls are sweeter, and bears are not afraid. And do not freeze, for sure. "
"Yes, it was especially important for us as closely as possible to show in our video the image of a real Russian man, and his character", - joined the President of "Diamond" Holding and also the creator and owner of the brand VALENKI, Zaur Balagov.
"Therefore, every detail in the creation of the video played a huge role - the scenery and costumes, and, of course, the actors. We do not know today another artist, who would so closely match to the image conceived as Alexei Buldakov - unhurried, thoughtful, simple, but with "cunning" - a kind-hearted man. Tough and strong in spirit - a real epic hero! "
Alexei Buldakov:
"And what kind of girls were in the playground! Real Russian beauties! No professional top models were chosen. As soon as I saw them, I knew right away they are ours. Fiery, flamboyant, warm, caring and native. They bring both cheer and regret, and are warm, pour the vodka, and get to bed. "
Zaur Balagov:
"Our native vodka is wanted. As the song, written by Sultan specifically for our video – felt boots warm the feet and the vodka warms the soul! Therefore, the vodka we have is VALENKI vodka. "
Alexei Ivanovich saw the video for the first time at the presentation itself:
"This fascinating story lasts for only 3 minutes - and how many incredible things happened in the frame! As usual on shooting location it was a hard long process, in the frost, in the woods, in outdoor conditions. I even got sick. But the result is great! There is a mass of positive emotions, enthusiasm, , and the little secrets of the true mysterious Russian soul. "
Zaur Balagov:
"Today we represent in the whole Russia on the international market with our brand VALENKI. And our project will be accompanied by this movie. Let everyone know we are the Russians! "
And what did a native of Ghana, the former boxing champion, a famous singer and hitmaker, Inusa Dawuda, do on the shooting location? How did he end up in the same bed as Yulia Tymoshenko and how much did those felt boots need to warm up, you know, by watching the video "The New Adventures of foreigners in Russia "("One Light Studio" Production)
