MOSCOW, September 19. Journalist and music critic Otar Kushanashvili posted a review of the latest news on his YouTube channel, in which he called for prayers for Igor Nikolaev amid rumors about the composer’s serious condition.
“
"Since the program will be released when (heaven, show your favor!) Igor Nikolaev recovers, I will at least feel that I did everything I could: with the power of words, the power of thought, the power of prayer. If you are devout, pray for my friend Igor Nikolaev, your favorite,” Kushanashvili addressed the public.
Last Friday, information appeared in a number of media outlets that the 63-year-old composer was urgently hospitalized with a massive heart attack . Later it became known that Nikolaev underwent a complex operation — coronary bypass surgery.
The musician himself and his close circle have not yet commented on this information.
At the end of January, the media also wrote that Igor Nikolaev was hospitalized with a suspected heart attack.
After a while the composer contacted fans and denied the news about his “critical” condition. The singer admitted that he was undergoing examination. But he did not disclose the reason why he went to the hospital.
