The Kemerovo State University, which the well-known Russian stage and film actor Andrei Panin once graduated from, will house his museum and a classroom named after him.

      Presently the issue of financing of this project is being considered and sponsors and patrons for the project are being searched. The Kemerovo State Culture and Art University has already addressed the administration for assistance.

      Let's note that the director Bakhtyar Khudojnazarov’s movie Heteras of Major Sokolov, in which the illustrious actor Andrei Panin played his last role, will be released with a live voice of the lost actor. At the moment the movie is not ready yet, several scenes will be shot soon, and in those episodes where Andrei Panin had to play, his role will be performed by a backup actor.

      It is a reminder that the actor Andrei Panin was found dead in his apartment on March 7. For four days before that his relatives had found it impossible to contact the actor, and on Thursday his friend arrived in his home and found the actor’s dead body. The actor most probably died of an accident. There is no discernible criminal version of his death.
