Comedy Club resident and the star of last season's The Bachelor, Timur Batrudinov, decided to voluntarily leave the Dancing with the Stars project. The reason is simple – a catastrophic lack of time for rehearsals.

«Обстоятельства сложились таким образом, что времени на репетиции танцев не было ни у меня, ни у моей партнёрши. Мы вынуждены были взять самоотвод, чтобы не подводить вас и друг друга неотрепетированными номерами. Нам было грустно расставаться, но поверьте - мера вынужденная» (The circumstances were such that neither I nor my partner had any time to rehearse the dances. We were forced to withdraw so as not to let you down or each other with un-rehearsed numbers. It was sad to part, but believe me – it was a forced measure), - said Timur Batrudinov. 

Fans accepted the artist's decision with understanding.
