The Akkineni family is delighted to announce the marriage of Naga Chaitanya and Sobhita Dhulipala in a grand and traditional Telugu wedding held at the iconic Annapurna Studios in Hyderabad, featuring an exquisite temple-themed setup. This special occasion holds immense sentimental value, as it is the first major celebration to take place since the unveiling of the statue of Akkineni Nageswara Rao (ANR) Garu, commemorating the legendary actor-producer’s birth centenary.
The wedding, held during the auspicious muhuratam of 8:13 PM, was a stunning display of Telugu traditions, with rituals performed under the guidance of elders. The festive atmosphere was enriched by heartfelt blessings from family and friends, who gathered to witness this significant moment.
Speaking about the joyous occasion, Nagarjuna Akkineni said, “This wedding is a deeply meaningful moment for our family. Having Chay and Sobhita start their journey at Annapurna Studios, surrounded by the love of family and friends, fills my heart with immense pride and gratitude. It is a celebration of love, tradition, and togetherness that reflects the values my father stood for—family, respect, and unity. Seeing them begin this beautiful chapter is a moment of great joy for all of us, and we feel truly blessed to witness it.”
The ceremony continues with rituals until 1 AM, offering a vibrant and heartfelt display of Telugu wedding traditions. Chanting of Vedic hymns and sacred rituals under the guidance of elders highlight the richness of Telugu culture.
For the lagnam, the bride graced the occasion in a luxurious antique gold saree with real gold zari, epitomizing the elegance of a traditional pattu cheera. The groom complemented her perfectly with the madhuparkham attire, a special traditional white pancha featuring a bold red border, adding a touch of sophistication to the ceremony, both reflecting their deep connection to their Telugu roots. The attire is thoughtfully chosen to highlight the bride’s natural elegance and complement the richness of the ceremony’s cultural essence.
The wedding radiated an aura of joy and celebration, with the bride and groom beaming with happiness as they embraced this new chapter together. The vibrant colors of the event, the laughter of loved ones, and the heartfelt blessings created an atmosphere filled with warmth and positivity. Every element of the ceremony, from the rituals to the ensembles, wove a tale of heritage and festive grandeur, making it a truly unforgettable day.
