The recent wedding of Akhil Akkineni, son of veteran actor Nagarjuna, to his long-time girlfriend Zainab Ravdjee has been a celebrated event, with unseen pictures and moments continuing to surface and delight fans. Among the most captivating glimpses are those shared by Sobhita Dhulipala, who is now officially part of the Akkineni family through her marriage to Naga Chaitanya.

Sobhita Dhulipala shared a heartwarming family picture on social media, welcoming Zainab to the Akkineni family. The photograph features Nagarjuna, his wife Amala, Naga Chaitanya, and Sobhita, all posing with the newly married couple. The caption read, "Welcome to the family, dear Z. Congratulations to the newlyweds". This gesture underscores the close-knit bond within the Akkineni family and Sobhita's warm acceptance of Zainab into their fold.

The wedding, a traditional Telugu ceremony, took place on June 6 at Annapurna Studios in Hyderabad, a venue established by Akhil's grandfather, the legendary actor Akkineni Nageswara Rao. The ceremony was attended by prominent figures from the Telugu film industry, including Chiranjeevi, Ram Charan and his wife Upasana, further highlighting the Akkineni family's significant presence and relationships within the industry.

Naga Chaitanya also drew attention during the lively baraat ceremony with a dance performance in a traditional red kurta. Many guests, including director Prashant Neel, Chiranjeevi, Daggubati Venkatesh, and Nagarjuna, were seen dressed in white and gold, adding to the event's grandeur.

Adding to the celebratory moments, unseen pictures from the reception held on June 8 in Hyderabad have also surfaced. One such picture captures Sobhita Dhulipala warmly greeting Telugu cinema star Mahesh Babu with a smile. Another video shows Mahesh Babu's wife, Namrata Shirodkar, sharing a hug with Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita, with their daughter Sitara also hugging Sobhita.

Earlier in December 2024, Sobhita Dhulipala and Naga Chaitanya shared dreamy photos from their traditional Telugu wedding which took place on December 4 at Annapurna Studios in Hyderabad. One picture showed Sobhita applying haldi on Naga Chaitanya's face during the Madhuparaka ritual, while another captured them exchanging jaimalas in a playful moment. Heartwarming shots from the Talambralu ritual and Sobhita wearing a toe ring, a significant Telugu wedding tradition, were also shared.

Sobhita looked regal in a golden kanjivaram saree while seated on a decorated lotus-shaped basket. A romantic moment captured Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita gazing lovingly at each other, and a black-and-white picture from the Arundhati Nakshatram ritual showed Naga holding Sobhita's hand as she pointed to the stars. Celebrities like SS Rajamouli, Ram Charan, and Rana Daggubati also attended the ceremony and fans showered the couple with blessings. The couple made their first public appearance after the wedding on December 6, visiting the Srisailam temple in Andhra Pradesh with Nagarjuna.
