Telugu film star Akhil Akkineni tied the knot with artist and actress Zainab Ravdjee in a dreamy ceremony at Annapurna Studios on Friday, blending family legacy with cinematic elegance. The private event, held at the Akkineni family’s iconic studio, quickly became the talk of the internet as viral photos and videos surfaced across social media platforms.
The couple looked radiant in coordinated traditional white attire. Akhil wore a classic dhoti and kurta, while Zainab stunned in a silk saree complemented by statement jewellery, making their first photo as husband and wife an instant social media sensation.
The wedding was an emotional and joyful celebration attended by Telugu cinema’s biggest names. Akhil’s half-brother Naga Chaitanya was seen dancing with full energy to the dhol beats, while their father, legendary actor Nagarjuna, charmed everyone with his signature grace on the dance floor.
Among the high-profile guests were Ram Charan, who looked dapper in a beige kurta, and megastar Chiranjeevi along with his wife Surekha. Actress Sobhita Dhulipala arrived with Naga Chaitanya, turning heads in a shimmering gold saree—fueling further curiosity about their relationship.
The festivities started early Friday morning, with Annapurna Studios transformed into a picturesque venue filled with joy and tradition. Videos from the celebration continue to flood fan pages, with fans praising the couple’s chemistry and the event’s tasteful presentation.
Akhil and Zainab got engaged in November 2024, a moment that created buzz across media platforms. Zainab, a Mumbai-based contemporary artist known for her abstract works and a short acting stint, has since gracefully entered the spotlight as a celebrity spouse.
The wedding not only marked a personal milestone for the young couple but also celebrated the enduring legacy of the Akkineni family in Indian cinema.
