Andrey Da! actor and casting director, was born February 14, on Valentine’s Day in Soviet Union. He is Aquarius according to the zodiac sign. And as is inherent to most Aquariuses, Andrey is always surrounded by a light aura of mystery and breathes of an elusive charm. To perform under the pseudonym, actor was inspired by two factors: one was the character of Richard Kelly’s fantastic comedy ‘Southland Tales’ with ‘The Rock’ Dwayne Johnson and other factor was much more trivial – most people can’t pronounce his surname correctly and he decided 'to make it easier for people to work' and left only the first two letters, cutting all the excess with an exclamation mark underlining the positive message of his personal brand name. (In Russian ‘Da!’ means ‘Yes!’). But according to the actor, 'that didn't save the day and everyone is still asking again several times at each casting'.

Andrey’s aunt was working at the 'Russian Academic Youth Theatre' (RAMT). One оf his great uncles sang in the church choir. Another was a musician, composer and curator of the unique musical instrument ANS at the Glinka National Museum of Music. Actors’ third great uncle was working in philharmonic, and taught him juggling in deep childhood. He started to teach young Andrey card tricks, but unfortunately he died before. Andrey Da!'s grandmother was a choreographer at the 'Tiflis Imperial Theater' (now Tbilisi Opera and Ballet State Theatre). By advice of his beloved grandmother, young actor together with his sibling sister, attended the ballroom dance school of the famous ballet-master of those days Georgiy Sanadze, from a deep childhood. His sister to this day dances at the Sydney Dance School of the famous movie director Baz Luhrmann, best known for such films as ‘Romeo + Juliet’ with Leonardo DiCaprio, ‘Australia’ with Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman, ‘The Great Gatsby’ with DiCaprio  and Tobey Maguire and of caurse, Oscar-nominated film ‘Moulin Rouge!’ with Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor.
