Renowned poet, lyricist, and public intellectual Javed Akhtar has been honoured with the Dostoevsky Star Award by the Russian House.


The award recognises his immense contribution to literature and cultural dialogue worldwide. His wife, veteran actor Shabana Azmi, shared glimpses of the proud moment on Instagram, highlighting Akhtar’s continued influence on global thought and literary heritage.

The Dostoevsky Star Award, named after the legendary Russian writer Fyodor Dostoevsky, is given to individuals who have made a profound impact through their writing and ideas. Akhtar’s work, spanning decades, has shaped modern Indian poetry, Bollywood music, and socio-political discourse. His dedication to bridging cultural divides has earned him admiration from across the world, including leading diplomats, artists, and intellectuals.

A recipient of several prestigious awards, including the Padma Shri (1999), Padma Bhushan (2007), and the Richard Dawkins Award (2020), Akhtar continues to inspire generations with his bold perspectives and creative brilliance.
