The Akkineni family was all smiles at the celebration, with Akhil’s brother Naga Chaitanya also in attendance. This marks the second major wedding in Nagarjuna’s family in recent times. Last year, Naga Chaitanya married actress Sobhita Dhulipala in a similarly traditional ceremony.

Akhil had announced his engagement to Zainab six months ago via Instagram with a heartfelt post:“Found my forever. Happy to announce that Zainab Ravdjee and I are happily engaged.”

Sobhita, at her own wedding, had made headlines in a gold Kanjivaram silk saree with real gold zari, paired with intricate temple jewellery, paying homage to her cultural roots. Naga Chaitanya complemented her in classic white traditional attire.

The couple had announced their relationship with a poetic Instagram post quoting A.K. Ramanujan’s Kurunthogai, adding an emotional touch to their celebration of love.

Naga Chaitanya was previously married to actress Samantha Ruth Prabhu. The former couple announced their separation in 2021.

With Akhil’s wedding, celebrations continue to shine bright in the Akkineni household!
