Do You Remember Him? He Was a Star of Domestic Soap Operas, and Today He Has Changed His Name and Profession

Marko Čabov, a former actor and model recognized for his roles in popular Croatian television series, has undergone a significant personal and professional transformation. Now known as Atam Puri, he has shifted his career focus to teaching yoga and holds a directorial position at a private firm.

Čabov, who was once a familiar face on screen, particularly for his part as Nikola in the series "Zabranjena ljubav" (Forbidden Love), has embraced a new identity. His LinkedIn profile indicates his current roles, marking a departure from his acting career. This change comes after a period where he openly discussed the challenges of sustaining a career in acting and modeling.

In a 2011 interview, Čabov shared his experiences working in construction, emphasizing his pragmatic approach to life and work. He stated that he was not someone who would persistently seek roles, preferring to adapt to life's opportunities. At the time, he mentioned working construction jobs for 20 kuna per hour, feeling more useful than an actor without a role.

His acting career included appearances in "Zabranjena ljubav," where his character was involved in a storyline with Tina Bauer, played by singer Antonija Šola. He also featured in the RTL series "Ruža vjetrova." Despite his past television success, Čabov has remained largely out of the public spotlight in recent years, with his current endeavors as Atam Puri representing a new chapter.

Bauštela nikada nije bila daleko od mene. Čak sam i u seriju 'Zabranjena ljubav' otišao ravno s gradilišta na kojem sam čistio zgradu od ulja. No tako je to. Kad bih mogao živjeti od manekenstva i glume, bio bih itekako sretan. Kako ne mogu, tj. nisam čovjek koji vuče ljude za rukav i pristaje na štetne kompromise, tako nastojim pratiti životne smjerove kako dođu i bez plana uskočiti u njih.
