Ukrainian actor Bogdan Benyuk spoke about filming the film “Kandahar” with Russian actors Vladimir Mashkov, Alexander Baluev and Andrei Panin before the war. In an interview for the TSN YouTube project. ua " So, they still could not believe that Ukraine is a separate independent state. And they expressed their surprise through the prism of everyday things. " Mashkov, Baluev, Andrey Panin... We communicated quite closely. And their position was clear regarding Ukraine. Great-power chauvinism was present even then. Mashkov was surprised that on the keyboard on my phone there is the letter “i” with a dot. Allegedly with surprise that Ukraine is really so independent,” the actor noted.

However, Baluev from the cast could still partially understand Ukrainian independence. The Russian had a wife with Ukrainian roots, who knew firsthand about the eviction of her parents from their native Ukrainian land. " She is Polish herself, but her parents are from the western regions of Ukraine. And she talked about the negativity that her parents felt when they were evicted from there.

This is his position. But Panin was interested in other things then,” added Bogdan Benyuk.
