Dear Meruert Karataykyzy,
We sincerely congratulate you on your birthday!
Your name — the legendary “Kazakh Kyz-Zhibek” — will forever remain in the golden treasury of Kazakh cinema. Your role in the film “Kyz-Zhibek,” released in 1970, became not just a character portrayal, but a symbol of the people’s love, beauty, tenderness, and noble spirit.
Through that graceful image, you became a shining star of our cultural heritage, passed down from generation to generation.
By embodying the main heroine of the epic preserved for centuries and conveying her through your heart, you have made an immeasurable contribution to the development of Kazakhstan’s cultural heritage. Your performances as Karagoz and Enlik on the stage of the M. Auezov Theater, along with many other roles, have become precious gems of Kazakh art.
On behalf of the “Madeni Mura” Foundation, we wish you strong health, long life, and prosperity to your family.
May your heart always be filled with love and creative inspiration.
The Kazakh people will always remember you with affection and pride.
Respectfully,
Elbrus Imamabayev
Impresario of the “Madeni Mura” Foundation
