Sogdiana was born February 17, 1984 year in Tashkent. Her parents had nothing to do with music: her mother Larisa Fedorinskaya by education - medical worker, and dad - Vladimir Nechitailo- engineer. Only my grandmother once sang in the church choir. 
But, despite this, young Sogdiana’s love for music manifested itself quite early. She grew up creative child: Since childhood, I painted, sang, danced and organized mini-concerts for relatives and guests. 
Parents noticed their daughter’s talent in time and sent her to a special music school, where she studied piano for 11 years. A great future was predicted for the young pianist, but she herself felt that she wanted something more. Even the most virtuoso performance of etudes by famous composers cannot replace one’s own creativity. Therefore, in addition to the piano, she began to study vocals from the 8th grade. Now the girl knew exactly what her heart was striving for... from that moment the story of the rising pop star Sogdiana began. Sogdiana took part in many International and Republican competitions ("Sado 99" - Uzbekistan, "Aziz Ona-Yurtim navolari" - Uzbekistan, "Path to the Stars" - St. Petersburg, "Discovery" - Bulgaria, "Canconi dal mondo" - Italy and many others) and was invariably among the laureates. But real singer cannot live on competitions and honorary diplomas alone, so Sogdiana began working on recording her own compositions, slowly but surely, selecting material for her debut album. The disc "Mening kunglim" ("My soul") was released in 2001
year. Soon she entered the State Conservatory of Uzbekistan at the faculty pop vocals. Sogdiana is sure that every job should be done by a professional. And this attitude in life attracts many to her. As the MK-Sunday correspondent will later write. Ulyana Kalashnikova: “They say that you can’t be smart and beautiful at the same time. For a graduate "Star Factories-6" This saying does not seem to apply to Sogdiana. The long-legged brunette managed to get a higher education before getting into the project music education, which is rare in modern show business."
IN 2003
Sogdiana was awarded the highest youth award in Uzbekistan - the State Prize "Nihol", which means "Rostock". This was already a real recognition! This means that it opened the way for this singer’s talent to reach millions of listeners. It was this year that she participated in the festival "Path to the Stars", held in St. Petersburg and returned as a prize winner. The singer's career is rapidly gaining momentum - video clips are being filmed, a second, much more successful album, "Mening Shahzodam... Baribir Kelar!" is being released.

Sogdiana is young and talented singer, an actress originally from sunny Uzbekistan, was born on February 17, 1984 in Tashkent.
Childhood
You should not try to look for Uzbek features in the singer’s face - they are not there and cannot be. There are no eastern roots in her family. And fate brought them to Uzbekistan by chance - after all, grandfather was a career officer, and he was simply sent there with his family. But fate so happened that they decided to stay there forever.
And the girl’s exotic name is just stage name. According to her passport, she is Oksana, and that’s what her relatives call her. Oksana’s parents have nothing to do with art, but her grandmother could easily have passed it on to her granddaughter. musical abilities- she had beautiful voice and was a soloist in the church choir.
The grandmother was the first to notice that the girl had excellent hearing and good vocal abilities and insisted on developing her in this direction. The parents did not argue, believing that any creativity is good for a child, and sent the baby to a music school. At the audition, it turned out that the grandmother was not mistaken - the girl was immediately accepted.
She received her secondary education at a special school at the conservatory, where all conditions were created for the development of gifted children. In addition, the girl herself insisted that she also wanted to take up dancing. She had to involve her older brother in the educational process, who took her to a choreographic studio.
Start of a career
By the time she graduated from school, no one in the family had any doubt that Oksana would continue to develop in the direction she had chosen since childhood. She entered the conservatory to study in the pop vocal department and dreamed of becoming famous singer, tour a lot and see the whole world.
But since there are no connections in musical world her family didn't have it, and big money, necessary for quick promotion, too, the girl herself did everything possible to become at least recognizable. She took an active part in all city cultural events and even organized entire concerts completely free of charge.
Such efforts were not in vain - soon people started talking about Oksana not only in Tashkent. She began to be invited to outdoor performances, which her father, who voluntarily took on the duties of an administrator, tried to organize. This is how the first money began to be earned, which was immediately spent on stage costumes and further promotion of the singer - she did not have a professional producer.
At the same time, Oksana constantly went to various competitions and festivals, where she often received different levels awards. The girl won her first Grand Prix in her native Tashkent at a television festival of professional pop performers.
And two years later she finally managed to record her debut song disc, which included several best compositions. Moreover, the girl sang songs in three languages.
The album brought her popularity in Uzbekistan and allowed her to expand her touring geography. Moreover, the girl’s appearance did not leave filmmakers indifferent, and she was invited to star in a film about Khoja Nasreddin.
The well-played role of the oriental beauty only added to her popularity. In 2005, Oksana released her second song album and took the eastern stage name Sogdiana.
Star Factory
Having decided that she already has enough professional experience to adequately compete in the most difficult competitions, Sogdiana decides to go to the casting of the next season of “Star Factory”. Moreover, fully aware that only good vocals will not be enough to conquer star jury, she relies on oriental charm and is not mistaken.
Sogdiana easily passes all the preliminary rounds and gets into the main lineup of participants who will compete for a place in the finals. Sogdiana did not win the competition and did not even reach the finals. But brilliantly performed in live the song “Heart Magnet” instantly made her famous throughout the country. Moreover, the composition brought her one of the most prestigious Russian music awards- “Golden Gramophone.”
After the end of the manufacturer’s tour, stipulated by the contract, Sogdiana records another disc and continues solo career. She is becoming again now the main character movie where own name tells about the fate of a Tajik girl who came to conquer Moscow. To date, the singer’s discography includes four albums.
Personal life
The singer’s personal life is not as successful as her stage career. Her first marriage, to Indian-born businessman Ram Govind, ended in failure soon after the birth of her son. Although at the time the union was concluded, Sogdiana was already quite popular, and her husband naturally knew about this, he categorically demanded that she stop performing and sit at home.
With children
After Sogdiana flatly refused to comply with her husband’s demands, he filed for divorce and took his son to India without her consent. Sogdiana was in severe depression for about three years and practically did not perform. She came to her senses only when her ex-husband returned to Tashkent and she was able to see her son again.
Soon she decided on a second marriage with the president of the hockey club. Her husband, Bashir Kushtov, initially strongly supported Sogdiana’s work, but after the birth of their joint son, just like her first husband, he began to insist on ending her career. And again the divorce followed. True, in this case the child was not harmed and continues to see his father. Currently, the singer's heart is free.
Singer Sogdiana is one of the brightest graduates of the popular musical television project “Star Factory”. A native of Uzbekistan skillfully dances and performs compositions in oriental style. Few people know that the singer’s real name is Oksana Nechitailo. The artist managed to be married twice and give birth to two sons. At one time, the press was stirred up by the story of the secret abduction of one of her boys - the first husband then took the child to India.
Where is Sogdiana's son from his first marriage now? Who forced the artist to change her faith? Did she manage to improve relationships with her ex-husbands? And does the singer want to get married again? The singer answered these and other questions to the host of the “Oh Mommy” program, Angelica Raj.
Sogdiana, I know that you are from Tashkent, and many people think that you are Uzbek by nationality. Your fans are starting heated discussions on the Internet about your origin. Let's satisfy the public's curiosity, so who are you really?
I have never hidden this. Indeed, I was born in Uzbekistan, in the city of Tashkent. My parents are Ukrainians. My grandfather was a military man, a colonel Soviet Army. And for his great merits he was given the opportunity to purchase an apartment in any city Soviet Union. My grandmother asked it to be Tashkent: it’s warm, delicious...
But at the same time you perform music in an oriental style. Your stage image is that of an oriental beauty. Why did you rely on the East in your work?
Since childhood I have absorbed this musical culture and this mentality. So I know how to do it.
Sogdiana, your personal life is simply an action-packed drama worthy of film adaptation. You said that you perceived your divorces as a huge tragedy. Why is this so?
Then yes. But now I take it as a lesson. Well, why should I continue to grieve and shed tears now? Of course, I didn't want this to happen. My mom and dad lived together for 45 years, and there were no other options for me.
Your first husband is Indian, your second is Ingush. This is the East and the Caucasus. And you call the reason for your divorces the pathological jealousy of your husbands. But you cannot help but know that the East and Caucasus have their own idea of family values. Why couldn't you fit into their framework?
I always wanted to be married. And yet there are always two people to blame. That's all I can say.
The press calls your first husband an Indian millionaire, your second - a Dagestan oligarch. Where did your paths cross?
I met the father of my first child when I performed at his birthday party. He saw me on stage. Then it was very difficult for me to hide from him. He overtook me everywhere, acted assertively, and didn’t even ask me. That's what he decided and that's it.
And with the second - Bashir - there was a whole detective story. He helped me a lot during the divorce process. That's how it all started.
- Was he as persistent as his first husband? It turns out that you are chosen, and not you choose?
Yes, I probably agree here.
- I know that when your first husband secretly took away your son, you did not see each other for several years. Is your son Arjun with you now?
Now it’s like this: when dad comes, he’s with dad. When dad leaves, he is with us. Now he doesn’t even remember the time when he lived separately, and I really don’t want to remind him of this. Of course, it was very difficult, there were very long negotiations.
- What persuaded his father to allow you to meet his son and communicate with him?
I think that first of all, the child himself. Because when the emotions subsided, the baby came to the fore, who, of course, needed a mother, and not a nanny. For him, dad is an unconditional authority, but he soon realized that the child was missing something. No matter how many different toys he has, everything he wants, his mother is his mother. Now we are communicating with his father. For me, a bad peace is better than a good war. The fact that I even told this story about the kidnapping was a step of desperation, I thought that I would somehow protect myself with this. But in the end, no, she didn’t protect her, and even made her angry.
Your first husband Ram is a Buddhist, your second husband Bashir is a Muslim, and you are Orthodox. Have there been times when your husbands persuaded you to accept their faith?
Yes it was, but it is very important for me to be accepted for who I am. Part of my life is creativity. How I dress or how I address God are personal issues, and the person next to me needs to initially accept them.
I did it international family. I grew up in Uzbekistan, and I myself am Ukrainian. And in general, I don’t divide people by nationality and faith. Yes, I have different faiths, but it’s all about one thing, albeit on different languages. We talk to our sons before going to bed, and the youngest, Mikail, says: “I’ll say a prayer now.” And reads a Muslim prayer. I say: “Well done, son!” And the second one - Arjun - lies and does not know what to do. I say: “You pray as dad teaches you.” And he read his very beautiful prayer. And I read mine, the Orthodox one. And I say: “You see, we are a family, we are one whole, you just expressed your gratitude to God in your own way, and you said the same thing in another language. But the meaning is the same.”
- The eldest son is a Buddhist, the youngest is a Muslim, doesn’t this create difficulties in communication?
No, there are absolutely no difficulties. The only thing our dads asked me was that the children should not eat beef, since Hindus do not eat it, and pork, since Muslims do not eat it. That's why we eat turkey, rabbit, chicken, and fish.
- Do you admit that you will marry again to a person of a different faith and different views?
Another faith - yes, it doesn’t matter. But other views are unlikely. I have absolutely normal values. I just want a family, and I have one. I have wonderful children and a mother. I work and go home. There is no such thing as me dancing somewhere until the morning, forgetting about home or my responsibilities. I just want my loved ones to understand my work. Some people work from 9:00 to 18:00, while others have a different schedule. It is necessary that close people treat this with understanding. If I stand on stage and people look at me, this does not mean that I am an approachable person.
- There was probably work main reason your divorces? Jealousy for work, for the stage, for fans...
Someday I'll tell you about it. Why don't I finish saying something?.. In any family life a lot of things happen, and it’s better not to tell anyone about it at all. I am so grateful to my husbands that my children are with me now. Yes, there were difficulties, but I am glad that now we are friends with my ex-husbands. We agree on everything normally and see each other. These are the people I can always count on. This is important.
- Do you want to get married again?
In general, yes! The main thing is that this time everything works out.

The temporary disappearance of the singer Sogdiana from view over the past four years has raised a lot of questions. It turned out that the girl did not disappear at all, but was raising her sons, going through a divorce from her second husband and saving strength to return to the stage. The singer’s divorce from the president of the Lynx hockey club, Bashir Kushtov, became known in April of this year. True, then the girl limited herself to confirming the fact of separation and a lengthy comment on the fact that ex-spouses managed to save good relationship. Now Sogdiana decided to openly talk about true reasons what happened.
“Bashir assigned two guards to me, who followed me on my heels,” Sogdiana tells the Teleprogram publication. - It’s no secret that in show business artists kiss each other on the cheek when they meet. There is nothing intimate about this, this is not flirting. But the guards immediately reported everything to Bashir. I couldn’t explain to all my friends: “Guys, don’t kiss me when you meet. Then I’ll have trouble at home.” Colleagues simply did not understand this. I thought: okay, I won’t kiss anyone and that’s it. It got to the point that I started hiding from my friends at events. I pretended that my phone had fallen and dived under the table when people passed by. There are four eyes and four ears nearby, watching me. I began to develop neurosis. I realized that because of the tension that I constantly experience, I no longer want to go anywhere. Once I went to the Golden Gramophone award in St. Petersburg. I'm standing in front of the stage, leaving soon. Near me, as usual, there are two “closets”. I catch myself thinking that I’m not thinking about the performance, but looking around - what if someone I know is coming? A guy I know, a rapper, is approaching me. He says: “Oh, Sogdian, hello!” And then I practically do a triple somersault, jumping to the side so that he doesn’t touch me. He widened his eyes and stood there, not understanding what was happening. They call me on stage, I run away. I sing with difficulty. Eyes are wet. I realized that I couldn’t do this anymore. At home I talked with my husband and, in the end, we decided to leave.”
Sogdiana admits that she is now completely self-sufficient. Her ex-husbands pay alimony, but her main income still comes from concert activities. “I want to develop myself, achieve goals - big and small. Sitting on the sofa is easiest, but then life will pass by. And I would like to fulfill my dream - to sing, sing and sing again!” - says the artist. Sogdiana collaborates with various composers, including Ravil Gimazutdinov, who wrote for her the songs “Heart is a Magnet”, “Blue Sky”, “Catch the Wind”, “East of Eden”, “Just Don’t Be Silent”. Their new creation, “Angels,” will be released soon. “I really hope that listeners will love it, because it was written and sung from the heart,” says the singer.
Let us remember that for the first time the singer Sogdiana married an Indian Rama, from whom she gave birth to a son, Arjun. The divorce of the spouses took place with great scandal. Ex-husband took Sogdiana’s son to India, and then transported him to Tashkent. The singer did not see her son for two years. Soon the girl tied the knot again, but this time the singer’s chosen one was the Ingush Bashir Kushtov. Married to a businessman, Sogdiana had a son, Mikail.
