MBP chimes but won't boot. Blank grey screen + unresponsive keys.
Yesterday I have bought a MiniDP-to-HDMI adapter for my MBP and decided to try it on my FullHD TV. I connected a mouse and a keyboard and closed the lid of the laptop so the screen was displayed only on the TV. After working for an hour, I decided to restart the laptop (with closed lid). After that, the laptop no longer boots.
At the moment, when I press the power button, it chimes and shows a blank gray screen. The hard drive and fan are spinning, CPU getting warm.
I can't reset SMC, PRAM, enter safe mode or anything else, as the keyboard is not responding. I determined this when I tried to press Caps Lock - indicator doesn't work. The external keyboard doesn't work either.
Also I tried to disconnect battery, HDD and RAM, but it didn’t help.
Thanks for any help and advice!
P.S. I apologize for any grammatical errors, English is not my first language.

Have you already tried booting with Mac plugged to your TV ?

Yes, but it doesn't work anyway.

UPD
When I close the lid immediately after pressing the button, the gray screen is displayed on the TV, and the laptop screen remains off.
