Alexey Lyutikov passed away in the midst of a legal showdown between comedians

On August 10, the tragic news spread around the participants comedy show"Ural dumplings": 42-year-old team director Alexei LYUTIKOV was found dead in a hotel room in Yekaterinburg. And although no traces of violent death were found on the lifeless body, many fans of "...dumplings" immediately suspected something was wrong. After all, in Lately Lyutikov found himself at the epicenter of a suddenly erupted scandal between the participants of the popular TV show.

News of the director's death Ural dumplings» with a cheerful surname Lyutikov made many think. Indeed, since 2009, this position has been held by Sergei Netievsky, who, along with other participants in the show, has been on stage for more than twenty years to make people laugh. And suddenly, in the fall of 2015, Alexey Lyutikov unexpectedly replaced him in a leadership position. In the past, he was also a well-known cavalry officer and, as a captain, led the "Service Entrance" team.

In October last year, a grandiose conflict arose in the once friendly and close-knit team of comedians. The reason for the disagreement was primarily money, because recently the participants of the Ural Pelmeni even got to the top of the Forbes list in terms of income. And, apparently, they relaxed, because of which the ratings of their TV shows began to fall - according to the results of the last TV season, “... dumplings” sharply lost ground.

The team blamed Netievsky for all the problems. Say, he ceased to cope with the duties of the director: he was engaged in producing other projects, did not sign financial documents on time, missed the deadlines for filing declarations with the tax office. "Ural dumplings" held a secret ballot, as a result of which Sergey lost his bread position. But the demoted chief did not agree with such a verdict and filed a lawsuit against his former comrades.

Netievsky is now a big Moscow producer, he is engaged in a bunch of projects. He became cramped in our team. And for God's sake. We have and Svetlakov at one time he left for the capital. But since Netievsky is not there, we need a person who knows all this cuisine. So we hired Lyutikov, - explained the "dumpling" Sergey Ershov.

Sharpened the corners

They say that the new boss began to add fuel to the fire, forcing the conflict within the team to flare up with renewed vigor.

Lyutikov is originally from Kursk, but lived in Moscow for many years, served as a director and was a personal adviser general producer « comedy club Production,” one of the team members told us, who asked not to be named. - It was he who drew the attention of the guys to the fact that the fee from their performances is supposedly distributed unfairly. In fact, "... dumplings" receive money based on their share - each owned ten percent in the company. Only earn more Slava Myasnikov, because he, among other things, is also a songwriter for the show. Well, and Netievsky. Previously, this fact did not bother anyone, but when the popularity of "...dumplings" began to fall, which means that incomes also decreased, the people rebelled. In addition, Lyutikov found some more documents, where it was stated that the Ural Pelmeni brand belongs to Netievsky's company. In general, Alexei aggravated the situation so much that in the end he finally quarreled everyone.

Meanwhile, a month ago, the fans of "...dumplings" discussed the new director of the team on one of the forums on the Internet. Many were seriously agitated by rumors of financial scandals in which Lyutikov was allegedly involved.

In his historical homeland (in Kursk), Alexei threw a lot of people for money, - someone wrote under the nickname Safron(author's spelling and punctuation preserved. - A. B. ). - They even wanted to go to Moscow to look for him. And now there he is - great and ... continues to throw. I know that people who wrote that Lyutikov was a crystal-clearly honest person repaid debts for him.

Be that as it may, a couple of weeks ago, a court in Yekaterinburg invalidated the vote of the comedian team and returned Netievsky to the post of director. Dumplings, led by Lyutikov, did not agree with this decision and decided to appeal it. The next hearing is scheduled for October. And then suddenly Lyutikov dies ...

The body of Alexei was found by the maid of the hotel, where he settled on August 2. He arrived in Yekaterinburg with the team after a tour in Sochi. And, having dealt with current affairs, instead of going to Moscow to his wife and two daughters, he bought alcohol and locked himself in the room.

Arriving at the scene, the police found a dozen empty bottles of alcohol in the room, as well as medications for high blood pressure. The cause of Lyutikov's death was named "dilated cardiomyopathy". In other words, my heart failed. It turned out that interruptions with the “motor” of Alexei had been observed for a long time. Some time ago, he suffered a heart attack and became a frequent visitor to the cardiologist's office. Surely health problems were added by litigation. Surprisingly, none of current members humorous show did not want to talk about the untimely departure of his friend. Only Netievsky was able to squeeze out a few words:

It’s very hard for me now, - Sergey admitted. - Despite all these troubles, Alexei was our friend. This is a huge tragedy - my heart is breaking. It's hard to comment at this moment, sorry.

According to the information provided in open sources, the man lived in the hotel since August 2 and practically did not leave the room. The body was found by a maid with a "do not disturb" sign on the door. An investigative-operational group and representatives of the ICR went to the place. Numerous bottles of alcohol were found in the room. In turn, the searched-out widow of the deceased told investigators that her husband complained of heart problems.

The actress of the show "Ural dumplings", singer Ilana Yuryeva told "MK" that she herself learned about the incident from correspondents. They had little contact with Alexei at work, since he dealt with financial issues, and not creative process. Even when asked if Lyutikov had children, Ilana could not answer.

Another former employee The team noticed in a conversation with MK that Lyutikov was “very industrious and industrious”, put a lot of effort into a common cause, but there were no close relations with him either.

The founder of the Ural dumplings team, actor Dmitry Sokolov, refused any personal memories of the deceased, citing the fact that he was uncomfortable talking. Did not want to talk about a colleague and the author of the show Danila Pyatkov.

Meanwhile, people who follow the work of the team, just a month ago, asked themselves in social networks the question of the personality of Alexei Lyutikov. They remembered that he graduated from the Kursk Pedagogical Institute with a specialization " social Psychology”, and in the early 90s he became the captain of the KVN team “Service Entrance”, in which he reached the semifinals of the game. “The Service Entrance team was cool. Lyutikov fronted, ”recalled a user under the nickname IgorVC. “If you don’t know who Lyutikov is, you don’t know anything about KVN!” - emotionally declared another user Kaziborda. However, some were more worried about rumors of financial scandals, where the name of the now deceased was allegedly involved. In particular, it was stated that KVNshchik had accumulated debts in Kursk, and the lenders were even going to look for him in Moscow, but other people returned all the money, who at the same time vouched for the honesty and commitment of the man. In addition, fans of the show recall an article in the regional Yekaterinburg media. There, one of the “who wished to remain anonymous” friends of the former director of Ural Pelmeni, Sergei Netievsky, who was removed from the leadership with a conflict, states that Lyutikov was the reason for Netievsky’s departure in many respects (later Netievsky was reinstated by court order).
