PanARMENIAN.Net - Office of TV3V Sochi TV company hosted a meeting of TV company head Valery Torosyan with Arif Javadov, a candidate for Azerbaijani hero’s role in ”Interrupted Song” film.

The meeting was organized at the request of Ashot Poghosyan, the film producer, who is currently in Nagorno Karabakh, Yerkramas newspaper reported.

The artist’s contract and his safety guarantees were in the focus of the meeting. Javadov, if he is selected to perform in the film, is going to change his appearance and leave for a European country for permanent residence when the film is finished, what is rather understandable, taking into consideration the threats voiced from Azerbaijan with respect to possible Azerbaijani participants in the film.

We would like to recall that the film features a psychological drama of two men, an Armenian and Azerbaijani, who find themselves in a pit. Both hate each other, but several hours later they start a conversation on the matters they are concerned about. Arik Manukyan is the film director, while Ashot Poghosyan – producer.

Karen Martirosyan will play the role of the Armenian hero, while an Azerbaijani actor will perform the other hero’s role.

However, recently an Azerbaijani actor strictly rejected his participation in the film, explaining it by the fact that he is under apprehension of his family’s life, which resides in Baku.
