The address reads:

“Dear Mr Jigarkhanyan, I congratulate you on the occasion of your birthday.

Jigarkhanyan’s art is lasting and impressive not only by its high performing mastery, but also by special serving of speech and the quotations which has become already popular. Your embodied roles are natural, their portrayal are convincing, the relation with the spectator is sincere. In this integrity you have created your period of cinema and theatre and in the art lover’s field of memory fixed your kind of Jigarkhanyan as actor and director, which is popular and long lasting, remembering and reminding, living and making to live.

That kind continues with your leadership in Moscow Drama Theatre functioning already for about 20 years, where is Jigarkhanyan’s atmosphere, Jigarkhanyan’s environment, where the actors get Jigarkhanyan’s master classes, and the audience enjoys the fruit of that mastery.

And once again congratulating you on the occasion of the 80^th birthday jubilee, I wish you health, optimism and welfare.”
