The Akkineni family is in seventh heaven as the wedding bells of their sons, Naga Chaitanya and Akhil Akkineni, are ringing the loudest. Yes, just a few days before Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala's grand wedding, Akhil Akkineni surprised his fans with his engagement announcement. However, to everyone's surprise, he kept the comments off from his post.
Akhil Akkineni shared the happy news of his new beginnings on November 26, 2024, but it came with a twist, as he switched off the comment section. This left people wondering why. Soon, social media quickly traced the identity of Akhil's fiance, Zainab Ravdjee. She is the daughter of Zulfi Ravdjee, who has been a famous name in the construction industry for the past 30 years.

Zainab's brother, Zain Ravdjee, is leading the ZR Renewable Energy Pvt Ltd as Chairman and Managing director. However, people were quick to point out Zainab's religion. It seems to be an interfaith marriage. Not only this, but netiznes also found out that Zainab is 9 years older than Akhil. And to avoid trolling and negativity being directed towards them, Akhil chose to switch off the comment section.
Nagarjuna made sure to give a warm welcome to his second daughter-in-law, Zainab. Taking to his X handle, he penned a note and announced his son, Akhil's engagement. He welcomed her into the family and congratulated the new couple. He wrote:
"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 to congratulate the young couple and wish them a lifetime filled with love, joy, and your countless blessings."
