The much-anticipated launch of the Top 50 Indian Icon Awards (T50IIA) 2025 – Season 5 took place on July 12 in Mumbai, with a glittering gathering of film personalities and influencers. Directed and conceptualized by filmmaker Dushyant Pratap Singh, the event marked the official announcement of one of India’s most meaningful awards platforms.
This year, the awards ceremony will be hosted on September 16, 2025, at the prestigious Iskcon Auditorium in Juhu, Mumbai. What sets this edition apart is its collaboration in association with Bright Outdoor Media Limited, one of the nation’s most prominent advertising firms known for its support of cultural and creative ventures.
The awards aim to recognize and celebrate individuals of Indian origin—both within the country and abroad—who have made remarkable contributions in areas such as arts, literature, business, innovation, and social service. According to the organizers, T50IIA serves as a platform for those unsung heroes who deserve the spotlight but often remain hidden due to the lack of visibility.
Present at the launch event were several prominent names from the entertainment industry. Among them were Pankaj Berry, best known for his role in Tenali Rama, Romil Chaudhary, widely recognized from Bigg Boss, along with actor-writer Abhimanyu Srivastava and celebrity manager Murli Manohar. Their presence added energy and enthusiasm to the event, underlining the growing industry support for merit-based recognitions.
During the media interaction, Dushyant Pratap Singh spoke passionately about the purpose of the awards. He explained that countless Indians are doing transformative work in their respective fields but remain unrecognized. T50IIA, he said, was established to give these individuals the platform they rightfully deserve.
Veteran actor Pankaj Berry praised the initiative, calling it “a noble step toward recognizing real talent and contribution.” Echoing similar sentiments, Romil Chaudhary emphasized that awards like these are powerful sources of inspiration for those working tirelessly in creative and social sectors.
As the countdown begins for the awards night, the excitement continues to build. With star-studded attendance expected and impactful honorees to be revealed, T50IIA 2025 is shaping up to be a landmark celebration that blends recognition with purpose.
The upcoming ceremony is not just another award show—it is a tribute to Indian excellence, innovation, and integrity. Through this platform, Dushyant Pratap Singh and his team aim to encourage a culture of acknowledging genuine achievement beyond celebrity status.
