Zainab Ravdjee, daughter of industrialist Zulfi Ravdjee, is an artist and entrepreneur. Akhil and Zainab kept their relationship private until their engagement last year. The wedding took place in the early morning on Friday in a peaceful ceremony, with Akhil wearing a white dhoti-kurta and Zainab in an ivory saree. Nagarjuna, proud father, posted on X sharing the good news: "With great joy, Amala and I share that our beloved son married his beloved Zainab in a lovely ceremony at our house."
