On August 27, it was announced that Daria Melnikova, who previously played Zhenya Vasnetsova, will also return to the project. Her character remains part of the storyline, continuing the arc of a competitive athlete whose drive for new records eventually brings health-related challenges, resulting in a hospital visit for the character.
Earlier, Anna Khilkevich discussed what drew her to the storyline and why she formed a connection with Mamaev while filming in Dubai, offering fans a glimpse into the series’ cast chemistry and production backdrop.
As the series progresses, audiences can expect a blend of heartfelt family moments, comedic twists, and the ongoing tension of balancing responsibilities with personal ambitions.
