Wedding At Annapurna Studios

The duo is set for a traditional Telugu wedding ceremony, which is going to be held at the family Studios. An elaborate set is being constructed in front of the late Akkineni Nageswara Rao's statue. Only about 300 people were invited to the event and invitations were already sent out to people like Amitabh Bachchan, Chiranjeevi, Daggubati family, among others. Celebs from the film fraternity, politicians, and businessmen are among the invitees apart from close friends and relatives.

It was widely reported that Akkineni Nagarjuna was trying to include Netflix into buying the rights to telecast the wedding ceremony, which is later found to be baseless. In addition, the Telugu wedding will take place in front of the late Akkineni Nageswara Rao's statue at the studios and the couple are keen on keeping it as personal as possible.

On the other hand, Naga Chaitanya's half-brother Akhil Akkineni is also engaged to Zainab Radjvee, whose father is a dear friend of Nagarjuna. Their engagement announcement was made a few days ago.
