Akhil and Zainab dated for a while before getting engaged last year in November and marrying in an intimate ceremony in Hyderabad on 6 June. Posting a sweet family picture from the wedding that also featured her husband, Naga Chaitanya, and mother-in-law, Amala Akkineni, apart from Nagarjuna, Akhil and Zainab, she welcomed the new addition to the family. She wrote, 'Welcome to the family dear Z. Congratulations to the newlyweds.' Zainab is a businesswoman and an artist who is the daughter of businessman Zulfi Ravdjee.
Sobhita and Chaitanya got engaged in August last year before tying the knot in December. The couple has been dating for two years secretly after Chaitanya's divorce from Samantha Ruth Prabhu in 2021. In 2024, Sobhita last starred in Monkey Man, which did not release in India, and Love, Sitara. She also dubbed for Deepika Padukone for the Telugu version of Kalki 2898 AD. She has yet to announce her upcoming projects.

15 years later, are Samantha Ruth Prabhu and Naga Chaitanya set for a comeback together?

'Ye Maaya Chesave' Set for Re-Release Clashing Stars and Crowded Screens You Might Also Like: Samantha Ruth Prabhu's regal saree look is right out of a dream. Guess the price tag In 2010, Telugu cinema witnessed the beginning of one of its most iconic love stories—both on and off screen. A young Naga Chaitanya and a debutante Samantha Ruth Prabhu first met on the sets of Ye Maaya Chesave , a film that would go on to change their lives forever. Their chemistry was electric, the romance spellbinding, and what began as reel turned real. The couple dated, fell in love, and tied the knot in 2017, becoming a beloved duo for millions. But in 2021, their fairy tale came to a bittersweet end with a public separation that left fans then, Chaitanya and Samantha have taken very different paths. He has moved on and remarried, while she has redefined herself as a fiercely independent voice in Indian cinema. They've never been spotted together since the split—on screen or off. But now, whispers of an unexpected reunion have stirred emotions across the years since its original release, Ye Maaya Chesave is all set to return to theatres on July 18, 2025. The film, a timeless romantic drama, marked Samantha's debut and established Chaitanya as a charming lead. With A.R. Rahman's soul-stirring music and director Gautham Menon's emotionally rich storytelling, the film is considered a modern classic in Telugu announcement of its re-release has done more than evoke nostalgia—it's sparked massive speculation about a potential reunion. Fans are now wondering: will Chaitanya and Samantha come together to promote the film that began it all? While there's no official confirmation, the very idea has set social media ablaze. A post from a trade analyst quoted by Pinkvilla noted that the buzz surrounding a possible joint appearance is 'unmatched,' adding that 'this film holds deep sentimental value for both.'There's a catch. Industry insiders suggest that Pawan Kalyan's long-delayed epic Hari Hara Veera Mallu might also release on the same day. If that happens, the screen count for Ye Maaya Chesave could shrink significantly, forcing a potential change in re-release plans. However, fans remain optimistic, not just for the film's return but for the emotional possibility it many, the re-release is more than just a film event—it's a time capsule, a rekindling of memories, and perhaps, a moment of healing. As fans hold their breath in hope, one question looms larger than ever:Could love—or at least, cinema—bring Chay and Sam together one more time?

"He taught me to never rely on shortcuts or influence": Virat Kohli's emotional Father's Day tribute to his late father

New Delhi [India], June 15 (ANI): On the occasion of Father's Day, Indian cricket icon Virat Kohli shared a heartfelt tribute to his late father, Prem Kohli, reflecting on the values and strength he inherited from him. In a deeply personal message he posted on Sunday, Kohli opened up about a pivotal moment from his childhood that shaped his approach to life and success. Kohli took to his official Instagram handle and posted a beautiful picture along with a message, 'He taught me to never rely on shortcuts or influence -- because if you truly have it in you, hard work will show if you don't have the will to work for it, then maybe you don't deserve it yet. When I was offered an easier path once, he refused it for calm conviction, he said, 'If you're good enough, you'll find your way. And if not, it's better to know that early.' That one moment shaped how I live, work, and show up in the Father's Day to all the fathers whose quiet strength becomes our lifelong compass.' The former Indian captain recounted a moment when he was once offered an easier path in life--something many would have accepted without hesitation but his father declined it on his behalf, making a decision that would go on to define Kohli's attitude toward discipline and self-belief. Virat recently bid adieu to the Test format with a heartfelt note on Instagram, days after his long-time compatriot Rohit Sharma retired from the format. Virat's 14-year journey in the whites transformed India into a result-producing machine. He infused aggression and the culture of fitness into a team riddled with youth and experience. In a career that redefined the demands of the game, Virat scored 9,230 runs at an average of 46.85, with 30 centuries and 31 fifties, and finished as India's fourth-highest run-getter in the format. He recently lifted the Indian Premier League (IPL) trophy for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). (ANI)
