In the picture he shared on social media, the actor could be seen beaming ear to ear as he held his lady love's hand. The couple looked stunning, with Akhil wearing a white shirt paired with white pants, while his queen Zainab stole hearts in a gown that looked right out of a Bollywood fairytale.
Another picture in the carousel showed them hugging each other. The third picture has our heart as we see the two standing close to each other, striking a romantic pose. In this picture, Zainab is flaunting her engagement ring. Surprisingly, one thing that raises a question mark is why Akhil chose to keep the comment section of the post off. Yes, the actor has restricted people from commenting on his post by switching off that option.
Meanwhile, Nagarjuna welcomed Zainab Ravdjee to the Akkineni family. Extending a warm welcome, he wrote on X (previously Twitter): "We are thrilled to announce the engagement of our son, @AkhilAkkineni8, to our daughter-in-law-to-be, Zainab Ravdjee! We couldn't be happier to welcome Zainab into our family. Please join us in congratulating the young couple and wishing them a lifetime filled with love, joy, and your countless blessings."
It was in 2017 when Akhil had called off his wedding with Shriya Bhupal, granddaughter of business tycoon GVK, months before the planned Italy ceremony.
Well, this engagement announcement came amidst the preparations for another grand event in the Akkineni family. Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala are all set to get married on December 4, 2024, at Annapurna Studios. Recently, the wedding card of the couple's wedding has gone viral on social media.
