Actor Akhil Akkineni tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend, Zainab Ravdjee, in a quiet and intimate wedding ceremony early this morning. The traditional ceremony was held at his parents' residence—veteran actor Akkineni Nagarjuna and actress Amala—in Jubilee Hills, Hyderabad.

The wedding was a private affair, attended only by close family members and a handful of friends. Among the few celebrities present were actor Ram Charan and his family, who came to bless the newlyweds.

Choosing to keep things simple and personal, Akhil and Zainab opted for a close-knit celebration. However, a grand reception is planned for Sunday at Annapurna Studios, where the couple will celebrate their union with a larger gathering of friends, family, and colleagues from the film industry.

Akhil and Zainab had been in a relationship for over three years before getting engaged last year. The couple’s understated and heartfelt wedding reflects their desire to focus on what matters most—love, family, and togetherness.
