Bells on the Acacia's tunes surface in TNT's series portraying Kuban town from Krasnodar

In the world of Russian entertainment, the comedy series "Znakhar" has made a notable addition to its soundtrack, featuring songs by the popular group Belki na Akatsii. The series, which premiered on the TНT channel on August 11, is set in a Kuban stanitsa and follows the story of Moscow native Kostya, who poses as a doctor despite having no medical knowledge.

Belki na Akatsii, founded by Alexander Trufman (vocals) and Igor Arefeyev (guitar and vocals) at the end of December 2004, is no stranger to the small screen. Their music has been featured in various Russian series, including "Kak druz'ia Zakhara zhini," "Univer: novaia obshchaga," and "Vol'shebnyi uchastok." The inclusion of their songs in "Znakhar" was announced on their Telegram channel on August 27.

Two of Belki na Akatsii's tracks, "Though Kому Я" and "Svad'ba v stile hippi," can be heard in the series. "Svad'ba v stile hippi" is from the 2010 album "Zapis' dublya," and "Though Kому Я" was released in 2011 and is part of the album "Porokopop."

It's important to note that "Znakhar" is a separate production from another series featuring Belki na Akatsii's music, "My Beautiful Nanny." The premiere date for the remake of "My Beautiful Nanny" has not been specified in this article.

As Belki na Akatsii prepares to celebrate their 20th anniversary in 2026, their music continues to resonate with audiences across Russia. The group's unique blend of humour and catchy tunes adds a delightful touch to the comedy series "Znakhar," making it a must-watch for fans of both the group and the genre.

In a separate development, an astrologer and comedian from the Krasnodar region will star in the remake of "My Beautiful Nanny," as reported by Юга.ру. More details about this exciting project are expected to be revealed in the coming months.
