In today’s article I would like to talk about the showman and comedian, actor and producer – Mikhail Sergeevich Galustyan. Which the viewer remembers from 2000, when he played in KVN as the captain of the Burnt by the Sun team from the city of Sochi.
A person who acts in films, embodying images that enter our lives as household names, and the phrases of his characters become catchphrases and recognizable.
But what is he, Mikhail Galustyan, like in life? Let’s try to figure out what he really breathes and what he dreams about in this article.
Height, weight, age. How old is Mikhail Galustyan
His first appearances on the KVN stage were received with a bang by the public, the audience laughed at his images that he showed. And literally in just a few of these numbers, he became famous.
Fans appeared who were in a hurry to see his next issue, and more and more information about him began to appear in newspapers and on websites.
The most asked questions were: what is Mikhail Galustyan’s height, weight, age, and age. There were many answers, or rather assumptions. But let’s use a proven source, that is, let’s see what the showman himself says about this.
As he claims, he was born in the fall of 1979, which means that he is only 37 years old, of which 35 years have been experience in humor, because he started making people laugh in kindergarten.
Outwardly, he resembles Carlson, since his height is 163 cm, but this, in his words, is not a complex, but an opportunity to constantly grow above his shortcomings, and his weight is 68 kg. This does not spoil him at all, but on the contrary makes him an original person. And if you add his sparkling humor to this, then you get a killer mixture.

Ariela, Dzhigan’s eldest daughter, is smart and beautiful. She does gymnastics and dancing, participates in her mother’s photo shoots, and is a good student. Oh yes, and she looks like her dad (although she inherited her beauty from her mom).
Biography and personal life of Mikhail Galustyan
At the end of October 1979, in the city of Sochi, in an ordinary Soviet family of a doctor’s mother and a cook’s father, the first-born boy was born and his parents named him Nshan (the name given to Misha when he was born).
Since childhood, Galustyan stood out among other children. When he was sent to kindergarten, the teachers could not get enough of him - he constantly sang, danced, recited poems, which they used, giving him roles at children's matinees.
But the time of the kindergarten passed, and its place was taken by secondary school No. 2, which was successfully combined with classes in the studio at the puppet theater and the martial arts section at the Sochi Palace of Pioneers.
At school, Misha studied well and the teachers set an example for other children. This ended when he entered 5th grade. Bad marks began to appear in the diary, and his mother transferred him to the gymnasium, where Galustyan’s talent was seen by the world. This happened on the local stage, when the future actor played his first role as Winnie the Pooh, for which he wrote the story himself.
Even this small performance aroused in the boy’s soul the confidence that he had the talent to make people laugh, which he took advantage of in the future. His school KVN team, where he was captain, after long competitions and crushing victories, beats almost all the teams in the Krasnodar region.
In 1996, Galustyan graduated from school and applied to a medical school to major in paramedic-obstetrician. After training, he did not work even a day in his specialty, explaining this by the fact that once he was careless in assisting in childbirth, and he would not endure such a shock again in his life. Even when his beloved wife gives birth.
Realizing that he would not make a doctor, in 1998 he entered the Institute of Tourism to study, hoping in the future to become a teacher of legal history.
In his free time from studying, he does his favorite thing - plays KVN from the institute.
Several times his team “Burnt by the Sun” competed at regional competitions, but they failed to advance beyond the semifinals.
At one of the performances she was noticed by Maslyakov. He liked their game so much that he offered to try their hand at the Major League.

The girl loves to wear high-heeled shoes, but either this is the photographer’s merit, or the secret lies in Misha’s shoes, but in many photographs they are almost equal in height.
