Javed Akhtar is not just a legend himself, but the family history of this celebrated Indian poet, lyricist, and screenwriter is simply amazing to see—a legacy of creative minds and social changemakers.
Roots of Poetry: A Legacy of Words
Jan Nisar Akhtar, one of the most famous and brilliant lyricists in Bollywood and India, is his father. Though this is interesting, the roots of this literary legacy run much deeper. His grandfather was a poet and philosopher; more than that, his great-great-grandfather was one of the leading poets, scholars, and activists in the Indian Rebellion of 1857. The rich tapestry of this language and activism sets up the background for the envious literary achievements of Javed Akhtar himself.
Diversifying the Family Tree: It's Talent
Javed Akhtar was not alone in his family’s affinity for poetry. His uncle was Asrar-ul-Haq, "Majaz", hugely famous for his Urdu poetry, while his aunt, Hamida Salim, remained renowned as an author of great repute, economist, and teacher. Another relative was Ansar Harvani, who was also involved in his country's freedom struggle and served as a Member of Parliament in the then-Menon Government in Kerala. This pedigree is a long line to greatness that manifests in various ways, both creatively and socially.
Seeds Sown, Branches Growing: Akhtar Legacy Lives
Add to this legacy the superbly accomplished Javed Akhtar – a poet, lyricist, and screenwriter who scripted unforgettable dialogues for some of the most popular and loved films ever made by Indian cinema.
Javed Akhtar's legacy extends even beyond his work, as his son Farhan has become a very talented film actor, director, and producer, and his daughter Zoya has carved out a successful niche in filmmaking.
