Karachentsov's condition has sharply deteriorated

A few days ago, the famous actor Nikolai Karachentsov was admitted to Sklifosovsky Institute. According to relatives of the 72-year-old star, it was a scheduled brain examination.

However, the actor's close ones are actually being somewhat evasive; the situation is far more serious than they previously stated.

It has emerged today that Karachentsov has been urgently transferred to the intensive care unit. According to medical staff, the actor's condition is critical.

The artist's son, Andrey, told journalists that there is actually no reason for panic. Nikolai was moved to ICU at the insistence of relatives, who allegedly feel more at ease there, as the unit provides round-the-clock monitoring of patients.

What is actually happening with Nikolai Karachentsov remains a matter of speculation.
