Stavros Zalmas was mentioned in one of the most difficult periods of his life, when his personal and professional life were affected due to a false publication.
THE Stavros Zalmas was invited to The 2Night Show on Monday night (11/03) and, among other things, talked about journalistic vagrancywhich he fell victim to years ago.
The well-known actor referred to the period when the press of the time wrote about him and the AIDSdue to his demise Alexis Bistika in 1995, of a man who was a turning point in his life.
Thus, Stavros Zalmas found himself having to explain what was happening due to the fact that they lived together.
“Journalism has a lot of vagrancy in it. When you draw the lights or are in the public eye it will ‘turn’ on you and if you fall into the hands of some bums, they will write bums. Then I didn’t react because I was in over my head. Now I would have filed a lawsuit against them and I would have received a lot of money”, initially said Stavros Zalmas, explaining that it was one of the cases that was worth dealing with as his whole life was affected.
“It is worth dealing with when suddenly the quality of your life, because some people wrote lies about you, it changes radically. That was the beginning of this disease and AIDS was a social plague. My life changed radically, there was damage to both my personal and professional life”, he commented.

He then talked about what it was like to live with an HIV-positive person, with Stavros Zalmas explaining: “I had a big house and Alexis rented a room in it for the periods when he returned from England, where he was studying, for a couple of months. This was cohabitation. At some point there was a knock on the door, I saw him in front of me and I said: ‘something very bad is happening here’. This child, if he lived, would reach very high, he had enormous talent and versatility. We got together as friends and discussed this case and took him to the doctors where he was diagnosed because he himself was negative. He was a man who did not want to make art for the few, but for the many”.
