Vlad Sokolovsky encouraged viewers to keep watching the Russian adaptation of the Turkish series Knock on My Door, suggesting that the forthcoming episodes will draw in a wider audience. His remarks were shared on Channel Five.
According to the artist, the main characters already stirred strong responses from viewers after the initial episodes of the original series, which sparked a wave of heated reactions. As those emotions intensified, more viewers began to be affected by the unfolding story and its themes.
He also praised the casting process, noting that the team behind the Russian production made a smart choice in selecting Nikita Volkov, known for his work in Difficult Teens, for the lead role. Sokolovsky pointed out that more than 50 actors auditioned for this part, and the final decision was not accidental, underscoring the competitive nature of the search for the suited expressivity and presence required by the character.
The first episode of the Russian adaptation aired in February, presenting the tale of Sasha Gordeeva, a standout student portrayed by Liana Grib. Gordeeva dreams of becoming a landscape designer but withdraws from university after a personal scholarship is canceled by Sergei Gradsky, a businessman played by Nikita Volkov. The narrative follows her journey as she navigates setbacks and ambitions against a backdrop of shifting relationships and opportunities.
