Actress and singer Nastasya Samburskaya talked about her income in the new episode of the podcast “Nothing Holy” from HiFi streaming Sound. The artist admitted how much money she needs to be happy and explained why until recently she had to strictly save.
According to the star, to feel comfortable she needs to earn 5 million rubles a month.
“Not to worry at all: 5 million. In fact, I saved a lot until this month because I rented an apartment in installments. Not with a mortgage, but in installments. Somewhere inside the third transport. The apartment is not too big, but it is about 100 meters,” Samburskaya said.
The host of the show, Mark Anderson, recalled that Nastasya once admitted: she became an actress out of envy of Sergei Bezrukov’s earnings.
“In fact, this is not out of envy,” Samburskaya clarified. – I just wanted to get the same amount. Today my shooting day is like Bezrukov’s. The funny thing is that this year I reached this pace. Now I have even a little more. I didn’t know it would take so many years. It turns out that it took me 20 years to catch up with Bezrukov. But now he has surpassed me.”
For comparison, one day of shooting Sergei Bezrukov costs between 1 million 200 thousand rubles and 1 million 500 thousand rubles, depending on the project. But the artistic director of the Moscow Provincial Theater can act for a smaller amount if the script interests him, but the film does not have a big budget.

Nastasya not only acts in films and television series, but also regularly performs on stage – she performs chanson. Samburskaya says she feels very organic in this genre. Plus, voice allows you to do what you love and make decent money at corporate events.
“Why exactly song? It’s inexplicable. It comes from me. I can give rock, I can give a little pop, but it’s not the same. Chanson suits me better. This is my nature. I can’t do anything about it. Nobody recommended this genre to me. Even when I was studying at the institute, I spoke with Vernik on the radio (Vadim Vernik, radio and television presenter), and then he had the program “Piano in the Bush”. And I sang the song “Alyosha-sha”, with which the ascent to this Olympus of singing began. I still sing it at concerts… And at corporate events I perform for a lot of money,” the artist boasted.
Nastasya is not at all ashamed that during corporate concerts she has to sing for people who chew and drink. On the contrary, he believes that in those moments the public relaxes and becomes more receptive.
“I love it when drunk people eat. I like it when people eat, drink and feel happy. You can joke with them. I like to do some light stand-up. There’s always someone drunk, they’ll let something slip and you and them will hang on word for word. It’s fun. And in the lobby people are more reserved,” says Samburskaya.
