Tchéky Karyo is celebrating his 71st birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed actors of his generation.

Popular actor Tchéky Karyo (Nikita, The Bear, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 71st birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Karyo, a cultural icon

Born Baruh Djaki Karyo in Istanbul on October 4, 1953, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in French history. Karyo's not just a great actor, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Tchéky hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Tchéky Karyo as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 71.

Happy Birthday, Tchéky, you're the best!
