The Akkineni family has witnessed yet another joyous occasion. Akhil Akkineni, the younger son of Nagarjuna, has quietly gotten engaged. Nagarjuna himself announced the news by sharing pictures of the couple on social media. With Naga Chaitanya’s wedding scheduled for December, Akhil is also set to tie the knot soon, filling Akkineni fans with excitement and happiness.
Who is the Bride?
Akhil Akkineni’s engagement took place today (November 26) at Nagarjuna’s residence in Hyderabad. He exchanged rings with renowned artist Zainab Ravadji in a grand yet private ceremony. Only close family members and friends were reportedly present to bless the couple. Nagarjuna welcomed his soon-to-be daughter-in-law into the family by sharing photos from the event and asked fans to shower their blessings on the young couple.
Wedding Set for Next Year!
Akhil has reportedly been in love with actress Zainab Ravadji for a long time. After receiving approval from both families, the couple decided to take the next step. While the engagement has been completed, the wedding is expected to take place next year. Akhil and Zainab are likely to be a major attraction at Naga Chaitanya and Shobhita Dhulipala’s wedding on December 4.
Akhil’s Past Engagement
Before Naga Chaitanya and Samantha’s wedding, Akhil Akkineni was already preparing to get married. He had been engaged to Shriya Bhupal, a relative of Ram Charan’s wife, Upasana. However, the engagement was called off due to undisclosed reasons, and the wedding never materialized. Shriya later married another individual, while Akhil focused on building his career in the film industry. Now, he is all set to marry Zainab Ravadji.
Akhil’s Upcoming Projects
Akhil is reportedly working on a periodical action drama, which is set to be produced by none other than Nagarjuna himself. The project is expected to be directed by Murali Kishore of Vinaro Bhagyamu Vishnu Katha fame. Pre-production work for this ambitious film is already underway, and an official announcement is expected soon. Additionally, Akhil is said to be collaborating with Anil Kumar, an assistant director from Saaho, for another project. The story narrated by Anil has impressed Akhil, leading to the script being finalized. Film industry insiders suggest Akhil might announce both projects simultaneously, creating a buzz among fans.
