Opera Star Nino Surguladze to Shine in Belgium, Italy, Spain and Georgia✨

Georgia’s acclaimed mezzo-soprano Nino Surguladze is set to grace prestigious stages in Belgium, Italy, Spain and Georgia in the coming months, captivating audiences with her powerful vocals and dramatic flair, as revealed in her exclusive interview with Glamour Magazine.

Surguladze is known as one of Georgia's internationally recognised opera singers who has performed various dream roles with the biggest stars of the international opera scene. She has taken part in famous global festivals and graced the stages of the world's foremost opera houses, including over 100 shows at La Scala.

The mezzo-soprano has received numerous awards, including a top international award regarded as the 'Oscar of Opera'.

Since 2014, Surguladze has been leading the Natvris Khe charity foundation, which has saved the lives of hundreds of children. The foundation's charity concerts in Georgia have seen honored guests such as Sophia Loren, Carlo Ponti, Carmen Giannatazio, Daniela Dess, Barbara Frittoli, and others.

Q. Nino, please tell us about the new roles that you are currently working on and upcoming concerts.
A. I recently performed in Belgium with Jezibaba in Dvorak's opera Rusalka and will be returning to the same theater to perform in the amazing and complex opera Katya Kabanova by the composer Leoš Janáček.

Currently, I am in Sicily where we are preparing for the world premiere of two operas, where I will play two completely different characters. Both require powerful vocals and strong dramatic acting, and the premiere is notable for being staged by the fantastic Italian director Davide Livermore.

One of the operas is called La Lupa, which was originally performed by Anna Magnani. After her performance, it has become a difficult challenge for me to present my own version of this role.

The second opera is a tragicomedy, and the responsibility and honor of its first performance fell to me and my colleagues. The performance will be conducted by the Italian maestro with great experience, Fabrizio Carminati, who is the musical director of the Teatro Massimo Bellini in Catania, Sicily.

After Sicily, I will be performing in Madrid, and in the spring, I am excited to sing for my beloved Georgians in Tbilisi.

Q. In order to achieve worldwide fame from a small country like Georgia, what qualities besides talent are necessary?
A. It's a difficult question to answer. I don't have an exact recipe for success. I believe that personal growth is a daily process and one should never think that they have achieved everything, even if they have a long list of accomplishments. I feel fortunate, and I think it's because I always carry love, Georgia, and poetry in my heart. The rest requires constant effort and dedication towards your work.

I never give up, I always get back up and continue to chase my dreams alongside those I love. My journey may not have had a clear destination, but I remained persistent and everything happened gradually.

I put a lot of love and hard work into every role I play. Memories of beautiful moments connect me with all of my past performances. As a singer, I believe that we can convey the full spectrum of human emotions - from pain to joy and everything in between - which allows us to create truly powerful and moving performances.

Q. You are a successful woman who has introduced Georgia to the world. Have you considered the impact of you as an artist on the entire country?
A. Of course I understand that due to my work abroad I am often in the spotlight and have the potential to showcase our country in the best possible light. This responsibility is not a burden as Georgia is truly an extraordinary country. We must strive to send positive messages that benefit our country. In fact, I believe that all Georgians have a role to play in promoting our country to the world.

“Women for Future” – Nina Kobakhidze

Women’s role has become more intensive in the modern world. Women are often observed in politics and business and the age of a successful woman has become younger. GLAMOUR hosts Nina Kobakhidze, the chairperson of the supervisory board of the Women for Future business federation, founder of the Benefit insurance company and chairperson of the supervisory board of the Geo Hospitals network.

1.⁠ First, how would you characterize yourself?

I have a high sense of responsibility. Besides, I am purposeful. I think these two features define my personality. Both of the features significantly help me conduct my business and non-business affairs. I appreciate the people who also have these qualities. I frequently choose my business partners based on them – if a person is not full of responsibility and does not aspire to reach his/her goal, it means that our views do not coincide and we should say good bye to each other.

2.⁠ What features are required for a leader?

An ability to carry out the teamwork and make a decision. Generally, society has scarce information about leadership. Everybody thinks it is easy. When we see others’ mistakes, probably, each of us think that we would never commit this or that mistake, but in practice it is not so easy, but difficult. I think that a leader’s function is to define the value of a company/organization and gather proper people around. Besides, the leader should show an individual approach to the employees as each of us needs different reasons for being motivated. As for decision-making, it is often much more difficult than we can imagine, but it is necessary – it helps a leader truly lead a team and be respected by the team members.

3.⁠ What does the concept “strong woman” mean for you?

It is hard for me to explain this concept using only one word. For me, every woman who left the homeland and went abroad in 1990s to save their families, is strong. For me, every woman who deviated from the stereotypes and chose a “manly profession,” is strong. I think that every mother, who works and is a housewife at the same time, is strong. Probably, the courage and skill of coping with challenges unify these people.

4. Who are better managers, women or men?

I am 100% sure that women are better managers. This is not only me confirming this, but a number of international studies show that women are more flexible, diplomatic and emphatic. These are very important manager features.

5.⁠ Can you recall any particular challenge you coped with successfully?

In general, I perceive critical situations as challenges. I have faced similar situations many times due to my career. It is the main thing to maintain self-confidence in this case. Challenges only help us become stronger.

6.⁠ Is it difficult to be a successful woman and have a normal, adequate family at the same time?

Of course, it is difficult – especially in Georgia. Sometimes I joke that I am a woman conducting several types of business. Someone may think it is easy but it is truly very difficult, as all this means stress and severe external factors. It is not a surprise in the patriarchal world, but we aim to change such approaches. Nobody should be surprised with a woman managing a business.

7.⁠ Your piece of advice for women is…

Believe in your capabilities and never stop learning – be competitive and nobody will be able to refuse hiring you only for being a woman.

The Truthful Answer To: ‘What Women Want?’
Dr. Zura Shanava Talks About Transformative Power of Plastic Surgery💫

Zura Shanava, a highly skilled plastic and reconstructive surgeon, was always committed to delivering the best results for his patients. He was constantly looking for innovative technologies and techniques to improve his practice and achieve better outcomes. This is why today he is well-known for delivering tasteful plastic surgery and natural-looking results.

In this interview with the Glamour Magazine, Shanava shares his passion for the transformative power of plastic surgery and answers probably the “most” complex question - ‘What Women Want’ from the American romantic fantasy comedy film.

Q. Plastic surgery is a popular field of medicine these days. But years ago, what led you to choose this profession?
A. From the very beginning, I knew that I wanted to become a surgeon. However, I wasn't sure which field of surgery I wanted to specialize in. When I was about to graduate from university, I had to make a decision about which direction to take. Since plastic surgery was the closest to my personality, skills, and desires, I chose to pursue it. At that time (2012), plastic surgery was considered an unpopular and closed field, so everyone around me, including my family, was fearful and didn't see much potential in my decision. Despite this, I worked tirelessly and remained determined, eventually overcoming the challenges and stigma associated with the field. As you can see, my hard work paid off, and I was able to achieve the success I had always hoped for.

Q. What do you personally like most about your profession?
A. I enjoy my profession in every way. However, I find it particularly rewarding when patients express their happiness with the results of their surgery. It's fulfilling to hear they love themselves more and they feel more satisfied both personally and professionally. Furthermore, it's gratifying to know the surgery has helped them overcome any insecurities that were previously hindering their quality of life. When I reflect upon these positive outcomes, I am reminded of what I appreciate most about my profession.

Q. You are a multidisciplinary plastic surgeon who is not limited to a specific area. Can you identify your "signature" in plastic surgery?
A. I may be better known for achieving natural-looking results, as most patients who come for follow-up visits months or years after their surgery, report the change looks very natural - sometimes even to the point where friends and family don't notice until the patient mentions it themselves.

Q. What would be your advice to aspiring surgeons?
A. Selfless work, constant development, overcoming difficulties, orientation to the future, patience - this is what will give the foundation to stand on the right path; Many sleepless nights, mixed emotions, nervousness - this is what they should expect and should not be afraid of; More happy days, satisfied patients and overall - this is what awaits them in the future.

Q. You have a profession that requires a lot of time and energy from you. How do you balance your career and family?
A. As healthcare professionals, we take our responsibility towards our patients and their well-being very seriously. We are available to assist them 24 hours a day, which can sometimes take a toll on our personal lives. I may have less time to socialize or pursue hobbies, but prioritize my family whenever possible. Fortunately, my wife is also a plastic surgery resident, so we get to work together and spend time together. Recently, we welcomed our daughter Annamaria into the world, which has been both a challenge and a great joy. As we navigate parenthood, we both strive to balance our work and family responsibilities.

Q. And lastly - What Women Want?
A. Women desire unconditional love, equality, self-sufficiency, a contented and comfortable family environment, and, of course, beauty. If a woman possesses these qualities in abundance, perhaps our participation as men will become significant. Therefore, I hope every woman finds a deserving and compatible partner, with whom she can achieve great things, because every woman deserves happiness
