Who is the leader of the Ural dumplings. Death of Lyutikov

According to information that appeared 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 TFR left for the scene. Numerous bottles of alcohol were found in the room. In turn, the wanted widow of the deceased told investigators that her husband had complained of heart problems.

The actress of the show "Ural dumplings", singer Ilana Yurieva told MK that she herself learned about the incident from the correspondents. With Alexei, they did not intersect much at work, since he was engaged in financial issues, and not in the creative process. Even to the question of whether Lyutikov had children, Ilana could not answer.

Another former employee of the team noted in an interview with MK that Lyutikov was “very hardworking and hard-working,” he put a lot of effort into the common cause, but there was no close relationship with him either.

The founder of the Uralskiye Pelmeni team, actor Dmitry Sokolov, refused any personal memories of the deceased, citing the fact that he was uncomfortable talking. Danila Pyatkov, the author of the show, did not want to talk about his colleague.

Meanwhile, people who follow the work of the collective just a month ago asked themselves on social networks about the personality of Alexei Lyutikov. They recalled that he graduated from the Kursk Pedagogical Institute majoring in "social psychology", and in the early 90s became the captain of the KVN team "Service Entrance", in which he reached the semifinals of the game. “The Service Entrance command was cool. Lyutikov is the front man, ”recalled a user under the nickname IgorVC. “If you don’t know who Buttercup is, you don’t know anything about KVN!” another Kaziborda user said emotionally. However, some were more worried about rumors about financial scandals, where the name of the deceased was allegedly involved. In particular, it was stated that KVNschik had collected debts in Kursk, and the creditors were even going to look for him in Moscow, but all the money was returned by other people, 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 friends of the former director of Uralskiye Dumplings, Sergei Netievsky, who was dismissed from the leadership in a conflict, said that Lyutikov was the reason for Netievsky's departure in many respects (later Netievsky was reinstated in office by court order).

It is Lyutikov who is credited with aggravating the conflict in the team. Allegedly, he found some documents confirming the big difference in the fees of the team members.

In 2006-2011. Lyutikov also held one of the leading positions in Comedy Club Production, and since 2013 has been the director of own production at Novy Channel.

Pathologists have established the cause of death of the 42-year-old director of Uralskiye dumplings. It turned out that he died of cardiac arrest and suffered from dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). In recent years, Lyutikov was diagnosed with a type of myocardial disease, characterized by stretching of the heart cavity, and then he developed progressive heart failure and heart rhythm disturbances.

The result was thromboembolism (acute blockage of a blood vessel by a thrombus), which ultimately led to death.

The body of the director of "Uralskiye dumplings" on the eve, on August 10, was found by the maid in the room of the "Angelo" hotel. It is known that the man had been staying at the hotel since August 2 and practically did not leave his room; there was a “Do not disturb” sign on his door. Alcohol bottles and various medicines were found at the scene. The official representative for the Sverdlovsk region, Alexander said "URA.Ru" that the initial task of criminologists was to find out if the death was of a criminal nature. “The final results of histological examinations, on the basis of which it will be possible to put an end to the pre-investigation check, will be available only in 1.5 months. Polls continue, ”added Shulga.

The death of Lyutikov became the subject of discussion on social networks. “Alexey went through a difficult but interesting life path. He was both a successful captain of the KVN team, and a top manager of large production facilities, and a talented leader in the television industry, - says in message, published in the official public "Pelmeni" in "VKontakte" - Alexey did a lot for the project "Ural dumplings".

He put all his skill and accumulated experience into the show, brought it to a new level, and thanks to his efforts, the project had the opportunity to develop freely and independently, got a second wind, a second life. "

As noted in the statement, huge emotional stress, flights, various problems and disputes, as in any business, and an almost round-the-clock work schedule - all this could not but affect Alexey's health. The post ends with words of condolences: “A talented person, a good friend, a loving and beloved father and husband, has passed away. The Uralskiye Dumplings collective expresses sincere condolences to the family and close relatives of Alexei Lyutikov. Alexey, we will always remember you and continue all your endeavors! "

It is known from open sources that Lyutikov graduated from the Kursk Pedagogical Institute with a degree in social psychology. In the early 90s, he became the captain of the KVN team "Service Entrance", in which he reached the semifinals of the game. In 2006-2011, Lyutikov also held one of the leading positions in Comedy Club Production, and since 2013 he has been the director of his own production at Novy Channel.

According to the Kartoteka.Ru database, Lyutikov was the general director of Uralskiye Pelmeni Production LLC (registered as a micro-enterprise), a similar position is indicated on the Pelmeni's official website. The founders of the company are, in fact, the whole team - Maxim Yaritsa and other stars, with the exception of Sergei Netievsky. At the same time, there is another LLC Creative Association Uralskiye Pelmeni, whose founders are also the entire creative team. Now, in relation to this company, litigation is underway - the fact is that Netievsky was previously its director, but later the meeting of founders deprived him of this position, and headed the company.

Now Netievsky is appealing against this decision, in July his claim was satisfied by the court.

The aggravation of relations in the "Ural dumplings" happened, as they say, because of Lyutikov: according to the Ural media, he allegedly found some documents confirming a big difference in the fees of the team members. One of Netievsky's friends, who was removed from the leadership with a scandal, said that in many respects the reason for his departure was precisely the conflict with Lyutikov. In addition, after the departure of Netievsky, Lyutikov stated that he had arrogated to himself the exclusive rights to the verbal trademark “Uralskie dumplings”. According to the deceased ex-director of Pelmeny, the brand should belong to all members of the team. The court hearing in this case with the participation of Lyutikov was supposed to take place in October 2016.

Former captain of KVN "Service Entrance" Alexey Lyutikov was wounded before his death, and medical supplies were found in his rooms, according to the media.

The death of the director of "Ural dumplings" Alexey Lyutikov on August 10, 2016: the death of the former KVN player was hidden until the last moment

Director of "Ural dumplings" Alexey Lyutikov was found dead in the midst of a corporate conflict in the team. URA.Ru journalists were the first to go to the scene, to the Angelo hotel, and collected all the available information.

Information about the death of the director of the "Ural dumplings" Alexei Lyutikov came as an insider from the readers. The body of a 42-year-old man was found without signs of violent death in a room at the Angelo Hotel. In spite of intkbbee the statements of the security officials, the staff of the hotel complex categorically denied the fact of the death of the guest and did it very professionally.

Most of the hotel guests interviewed did not see the police, much less how the body was taken out. According to informed sources in the ambulance service, Lyutikov was last seen alive at the hotel on the night of August 10, about 2.20 minutes.

The man caught the eye of the attendants, and his corpse was found by the maid the next day. According to one of the versions, Buttercups on this day, at about noon, could be evicted from Angelo, where he had lived since August 2.

The creative team did not know about the stay in Yekaterinburg of the director of "Uralskiye dumplings", a Muscovite. Moreover, no one knew about his stay at the hotel.

The ambulance doctors, who arrived as quickly as possible, had only to record "biological death for an unknown reason" - this is the official wording in the document. They also confirm the information from the investigating authorities (the investigation of the death is being conducted by the investigative department of the Sverdlovsk Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation in the Oktyabrsky District) that the room was filled with bottles of expensive alcohol.

The autopsy, which will take place on Thursday, August 11, will show what caused the death of Alexei Lyutikov. This will at least exclude the version of clonidine poisoning, which has been practiced by prostitutes at all times. The hotel security service categorically denies even the likelihood of such an emergency. Forensic scientists must determine the level of alcohol in the body, as well as whether pure ethanol could lead to death.

Versions of the death of the director of "Ural dumplings" Lyutikov

It is known that members of the Creative Association Uralskie Pelmeni LLC (and this is almost the entire famous team of the Sverdlovsk KVN) are in a corporate dispute with their longtime director Sergei Netievsky. About a year ago, he was fired from his post due to financial disagreements between the team members: it is believed that Netievsky was hiding the amount of the show's profits from the actors. This information is said to have been disclosed and made public by Mr. Lyutikov, who was Netievsky's assistant.

Litigation between the former comrades continues: the first court was won by Netievsky, but a couple of days before Lyutikov's death, his side filed a lawsuit with the court of appeal.

The publication notes that the director of the "Ural dumplings" Alexey Lyutikov was wounded before his death. On condition of anonymity, the experts told the details and circumstances of the showman's death. A suspicious chest wound was found in the region of the heart. Death occurred in the morning, around 10 am on August 10.

However, later in the UK they denied this information.

“We do not confirm the information about the injury. There are no signs of a criminal death. An autopsy will be performed today, ”said Alexander Shulga, senior assistant to the head of the Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation in the Sverdlovsk Region, in response to a request from RIA Novosti.

“Emergency call at about 15:00. The ambulance arrived promptly - within a few minutes. We found the corpse of a man lying at the door of the room on his stomach in only his underpants, his head on the threshold to the bathroom. The room was a big mess, the bottles were everywhere - somewhere whole, somewhere broken. There were traces of vomiting in places. On examination, a chain, a cross and some kind of pendant were found on the neck - all items made of yellow metal, ”the interlocutor quotes URA.ru. According to him, the man had a ring on his finger, which meant that no one had robbed him.

By all indications, in particular by the way the corpse was lying, death could have occurred from thromboembolism or as a result of a massive heart attack.

Medical preparations were found in the room of the director of "Uralskiye dumplings"

Drugs for lowering pressure were found in the room of the Yekaterinburg hotel, where the body of the director of "Ural dumplings" Alexei Lyutikov was found, Valery Gorelykh, head of the press service of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Sverdlovsk Region, told RIA Novosti.

"The information that some narcotic pills were found in the room does not correspond to reality. Drugs were found there to reduce blood pressure. They, along with other material evidence, were added to the materials of the check. It was also established that the citizen had lived in this room alone since August 2," - said Gorelykh.

The death of Alexey Lyutikov is a shock for "Ural dumplings" and their fans

One of the founders of the Uralskiye Pelmeni team, Sergei Netievsky, told a TASS correspondent by phone that he was shocked by the death of the team's general director.

"It's just a shock for me. I can't even say anything about this. I still can't believe that all this happened, is it really so. I can't comment on anything, because I am in Moscow and do not know everything," - said Netievsky.

Other members of the show are not yet available for comment.

The head of the press service of the Sverdlovsk police, Valery Gorelykh, noted that Lyutikov's death came as a shock to all fans of Uralskiye dumplings. “I myself am a fan of this team. I would like to personally express my condolences to the relatives of Alexei Lyutikov. This is an irreparable loss for the team,” Gorelykh said.

As previously reported, the body of the director of the show "Uralskie dumplings" without external signs of violence was found in the Angelo hotel, which is located near the airport in Yekaterinburg. In addition to the version about excessive consumption of alcohol, another probable cause of death of Alexei Lyutikov could be heart problems.

Members of the creative association "Uralskie dumplings" became famous back in the 90s, when they performed in KVN. Following the victory in the 2000 season finale, money came for fame: Yekaterinburg residents became the stars of the STS TV channel and began to travel with their shows throughout the country. In the wake of popularity, the team twice - in 2013 and 2015 - was included in the ranking of the richest showbiz artists, earning $ 2.8 million and $ 800 thousand, respectively.

The price of tickets for the concerts of the "Ural dumplings" reached tens of thousands of rubles, and the new program was broadcast in the prime time of the federal air about once every two months. The quarrel looked all the more unexpected from the outside.

How is it that former friends only talk to each other through their representatives in the courtrooms?

On October 21, 2015, information appeared that Sergei Netievsky left the position of the show director. At first, the former KVA members did not speak about the reasons for such a decision, which only contributed to the spread of rumors: "the guys expressed distrust in him", "financial conflict", "Netievsky has many projects on the side."

Later on the same day, the general director of Uralskiye Pelmeni Production (produces the show) Alexey Lyutikov expressed the team's official position. As usual: "The decision to change the director was a simple management move that will increase efficiency." The problem was Netievsky's residence in Moscow, at some point this caused discomfort among his colleagues.

- There were many rumors, including that the reason for the resignation was a financial conflict. What happened?

Sergei felt cramped in Yekaterinburg. He himself said more than once in an interview that he had become a Muscovite, that he was much more comfortable in the capital. In other words, Sergei has ceased to be a "dumpling in a pan" and has become a "fish in water".

As for rumors about political or financial disputes, we do not even comment on this. We do not want to make excuses to anyone. We are honest with each other. We have no behind-the-scenes games, kitchen secrets. We find it funny to read about this in the media.

- Will Netievsky remain in the team?

No one is kicked out, no one is fired. Now Sergey will be working on his projects in Moscow, and we wish him success in this. If Sergei Netievsky wants to continue working as a team, then we will sit down with him and discuss everything.

Next year is the anniversary of KVN, followed by the anniversary of Alexander Vasilyevich Maslyakov. We will be happy to invite both Sergei Svetlakov and Sergei Netievsky.

- Have you and the other team members managed to maintain friendly relations with him?

Of course. I think that this is such a feature of the Urals people - we are kind, reasonable people. Normal, friendly relations are important for us, because it is easier to live this way. The main value is decency and kind attitude towards each other, which we will always keep in the team.

At the same time, Sergei Netievsky tried to launch an entertainment project "Show from Air". The co-author was Alexander Pushnoy, known for his scientific and entertainment program Galileo. It was planned that the program will go to STS.

In February 2016, he was the unofficial leader of the Ural dumplings. “Netievsky went his own way ... I will not wash dirty linen in public. The situation is too complicated. It has not been fully resolved yet, therefore ... ”- he said.

In the spring, two participants announced their interests outside the show: Vyacheslav Myasnikov collected his good songs into an album, and Yulia Mikhalkova wanted to go to the State Duma and. “I didn’t act naked. I had a photo session in an information magazine, ”- this is how the prima of“ Ural dumplings ”reacted to the question about filming in Maxim.

As it turned out, many of the team's legal issues were tied to Netievsky. To move away from the past life, Sergey Isaev came up with a branding update. The winner of the competition for the best logo was promised money.

As it turned out, Sergei Netievsky himself was against changing the status quo and did not agree with his dismissal. The showman felt that he had been inappropriately notified. On June 1, the arbitration court began to investigate labor relations and the form of their termination.

A month later, the court sided with the ex-director. During that meeting, Olga Yuryeva, a lawyer for Uralskiye Dumplings, suggested that in fact Netievsky did not need a chair: “This process is a way to block and slow down the process that is now underway in the Moscow Arbitration. The essence of the matter is that we are challenging the transfer of a trademark from one firm, where Netievsky owned 10%, to another, where he owns 100%. "

At the same time, Uralskiye Pelmeni filed a lawsuit to invalidate the decision to alienate Netievsky's company of exclusive rights to a verbal trademark worth 400 million rubles.

August 10 in the hotel room Angelo. The team went underground for a month and did not speak to reporters.

In October, the 17th Arbitration Court of Appeal upheld the decision of the lower instance, confirming that the director of the creative association is Sergei Netievsky.

By December, the opposing sides seem to be. In theory, such an outcome suited everyone. Netievsky, though de jure, was reinstated in his post, but he had no real influence on the team, and the participants of the "Ural dumplings" did not need a formal, but a leading superstructure.

In the last week of 2016, the comedians at their meeting elected a new director:.

In May 2017, Uralskiye Pelmeni lost the trademark appeal. Lawyer Evgeny Dedkov said that the right to the brand was already on the balance sheet of the plaintiff, his client Sergei Netievsky issued a sign for the group when he was in the status of director of "pelmeni". And for some reason, comedians still continue to sue.

By the summer, a new litigation began between Netievsky and Uralskiye dumplings. Lyutikov's successor as CEO, Yevgeny Orlov, said that from the sale of the show on STS and touring activities. To do this, he organized the Idea Fix Media company, which, in fact, became the owner of all Pelmeni programs.

“In general, there have always been hints that something is unclean. He considers his actions to be legitimate. Nine people are wrong and he is right! He said, “This is business. In Moscow, all producers do this. " That is, for some reason he imagines himself to be our producer. Although everyone in our team has an equal contribution to the common cause, and incomes should also be equal, ”Dmitry Sokolov said at the time.

Sergei Netievsky, commenting on the accusations, expressed regret that his former comrades fell under the bad influence. “A television product is created not only by actors and authors, it is created and promoted by the work of a well-coordinated production company team led by producers. I did a great job as a producer and really made a popular television show out of the Uralskiye Pelmeni KVN team! Launching a TV project is a different, compared to actors and authors, a higher level of responsibility, risk and, accordingly, it is a different payment, ”the producer explained his point of view.

On July 17, the court again sided with Netievsky - that time the claims of Uralskiye Dumplings were that the ex-director sold the rights to the anniversary concert “We are 16 years old. Because gladiolus! ”Without warning the team about it. Sergei took the money from the deal for himself, according to the Uralskiye Dumplings.

A new round of litigation started in the fall. Firstly, in the Moscow Arbitration Court, a trial was held against Dmitry Sokolov, Sergey Kalugin, Vyacheslav Myasnikov. Sergey Netievsky's company - Fest Hand Media LLC- asks to cancel under contracts with its subsidiary. The court dismissed the claim.

Secondly, other claims from Fest Hand Media LLC to Uralskiye Pelmeny Production, where the plaintiff claims that Evgeny Orlov, as CEO of Idea Fix Media, caused damage to the company. He allegedly sold 73 archival concerts to Uralskiye Pelmeni Production for 861 thousand rubles, after which Uralskiye Pelmeni Production transferred the recordings to STS for 231.3 million rubles. The first instance rejected the claim, after which Fest Hand Media filed an appeal.

And the other day the Sverdlovsk Arbitration Court started considering the next application of the "Ural dumplings". The lawyers want, which he allegedly appropriated for himself while he served as director of the UP. Netievsky spent these funds through his own individual entrepreneur, although there was no need for this, the representative of Pelmeny said, the plaintiff believes.

On February 28, the director of one of the legal entities - LLC Creative Association Uralskiye Pelmeni- became Natalia Tkacheva, replacing Andrei Rozhkov. She was previously responsible for media communications.

To be continued.

Alexey Lyutikov, whose biography is presented in the article, was one of the brightest participants in the game in KVN. Having left the team "Service Entrance" in 1997, he disappeared from the screens. His fate was little known to the layman, until in August 2016 the media reported about his death in a hotel in Yekaterinburg.

Way to KVN

A native of the small town of Fatezh (Kursk region), Alexey Lyutikov was born on 2.06.1974. He was born with a cleft lip and was ridiculed and bullied by his peers. Even then, there were heart problems, because the boy could not help but worry about childish cruelty. Salvation was the school KVN, on the stage of which he caused deafening laughter in the audience. But it was a different laugh - a reaction to witty jokes without teasing his appearance. An exciting game became his destiny.

The young man underwent five most difficult facial surgeries, but the consequences of the congenital anomaly remained noticeable until the end of his days. Having developed for himself the principle that you can only rely on yourself in life, Alexey Lyutikov, for whom KVN became a vocation, entered the pedagogical institute of the city of Kursk. Having received the profession of a social psychologist, in 1993, the young man became a member of the Kurian team “Service Entrance”.

Frontman of the KVN team

The young men did not go to their success for long. Already in 1997, they brilliantly reached the semifinals, beating the popular Uralskiye Pelmeni team in the 1/8 finals in a face-to-face meeting. Among them, the captain, Aleksey Lyutikov, stood out, making jokes with an absolutely serious expression on his face. He was followed with interest, he was quoted as saying:

• "This is the country behind the Jews, and behind us is the stop."
• "We work out sponsorship bread with our ass."
• "KVN heals calluses!"

After the team did not pass the semi-final stage, the frontman left the team due to disagreements with the guys. They were considered the leaders of the 1998 season, but without their captain they were eliminated at an early stage, unable to move further to the professional level.

Follow-up, personal life

Lyutikov managed to catch on in Moscow, but he never appeared on the stage. He started a family early, so he needed to get on his feet. Since 2006, Alexey Lyutikov began to cooperate with the Comedy Club, heading the direction of regional development. His responsibilities included the creation of local branches of the stand-up club. Since 2013, he began cooperation with Novy Kanal, and in 2014 he was appointed executive producer of First Hand Media, led by Sergei Netievsky. He headed the humorous show "Ural dumplings" created in 2009.

By this time, Lyutikov already had two children: a son, born when Alexei was only 20, and a daughter, who was successfully engaged in rhythmic gymnastics. A little later, she will enter the youth team. Never missing her important starts, in August 2016, for some reason, Alexey Lyutikov broke this tradition.

"Ural dumplings" - the last project of the showman

"Ural dumplings" needed a professional who would know firsthand Moscow show business. In the summer of 2015, the team had a conflict with the head of Netievsky, whose firm owned the trademark of the creative team. Despite the fact that he brought the guys to STS and did a lot for the team, disagreements arose about the further development of the project. He took over the leadership and there was no one to do business in Moscow. This is how Alexey Lyutikov appeared in Uralskiye Dumplings.

He is blamed for stirring up the conflict and litigation, as a result of which Sergei Netievsky regained his position as head of the show. There was a process to return the trademark to the founders. Being engaged in financial matters, Lyutikov presented the children with documents, from which it followed that the manager's income was significantly different from the artists' fees. Be that as it may, he himself went into work headlong, concluding an unprecedented contract for the team - 12 performances in Sochi in the summer of 2016. Upon returning from the tour on 08/08/2016, he was supposed to fly to his family in Moscow, but for some reason returned from the airport to the Angelo hotel.

Causes of death

His corpse was discovered on August 10 by the hotel maid. He spent the whole week in his room alone, emptying the minibar, and then ordering cognac from the restaurant. Suffering from heart failure, the body could not cope with the abundance of alcohol. Presumably, the showman died from thromboembolism, having fallen with his head unconscious on the table. As a result, the face was injured by shards of glass from a glass, so the version of a violent death was initially put forward. The artist's family refused to initiate a criminal case, recognizing the fact of death from natural causes.

It remains a mystery why the showman did not fly to Moscow. These days, his daughter took part in demonstration performances, and for the first time his father was not in the hall. What did Alexey Lyutikov think about in the last hours? "Uralskie dumplings" in an official appeal acknowledged his contribution to the development of the creative team and expressed condolences to his family and loved ones. And in the press rumors spread about the possible debts of Lyutikov and the alleged termination of the contract with him.

True fans of KVN are really sorry that the once talented captain Kuryan decided to leave the stage.
