Each Ramadan, Hayat Life honors 30 extraordinary Cultural Muslims who have been an integral part of shaping and improving our society in the last year, unveiling one Ramadan Top 30 Illuminator each day of the holiday. Some are global pop cultural icons, while others are unsung heroes making extraordinary contributions outside the limelight.
In that spirit, we are honored to present:
Lupin actor Omar Sy won the Satellite Award for Best Actor in a Drama Series in 2022, a decade after earning another award for his breakout role in The Intouchables. The Senegalese-Mauritanian actor grew up in France, where he began his career on radio and television before moving to Hollywood. In addition to his acting credits, he has created such shows as Le Visiophon in France, and recently signed a deal with HBOMax to develop more programming for French audiences.
