Druschnikow, who came from an orderly background, attended the 53rd Moscow Middle School and, after graduating, joined the Central Children's Theater , where he stayed until 1943 and played numerous leading roles. Due to the war , the theater company was evacuated to Siberia, but returned in 1943. On October 20 of this year, the drama school of the theater opened, where Druzhnikov then studied. From 1945 he appeared at the Moscow State Theater of Film Actors . In the same year Druzhnikov made his film debut as a supporting supporting character Grigory Nesnamow in Guilty Without Guilt and therefore ended his education without a degree. Director Vladimir Petrov III was actually looking for a leading actor for his work at the Central Children's Theater and discovered the young Muscovite by chance.

Druzhnikov's third engagement, the award-winning fairy tale film The Stone Flower , brought him the first leading role. He appeared in numerous period films , including as the poet and revolutionary Kondrati Rylejew in Глинка (1946), as partisan Konstantin Saslonow in the film of the same name by the studio Беларусьфильм and in Костёр бессмертия (1955) in the role of Bruno Giord . He was also involved in the Chekhov films The Cricket and The Duel , in the latter in the lead role. Druzhnikov's last appearance as the leading actor was in The Mysterious Monk in 1967 . He has also been a regular voice actor and has voiced roles in Russian language versions of many international films. The actors he has spoken include Yul Brynner in The Magnificent Seven , Laurence Olivier in Spartacus , Fred MacMurray in The Apartment , Rex Harrison in Cleopatra , Jean Marais in the Fantomas trilogy, Gojko Mitić in several films, Orson Welles in The Battle for Rome , Burt Lancaster in Violence and Passion and Jason Robards in Hurricane . He was also involved in the animated film The Secret of the Third Planet .

Druzhnikov was active until shortly before his death and worked as an actor in over 50 films and as a voice actor in around 90 others. He died in Moscow at the age of 71; his urn was buried in the Trojekurowo cemetery.
