Anup to perform at Akhil's engagement

Actor Akkineni Nagarjuna’s younger son Akhil’s engagement to city-based designer Shriya Bhupal on Friday here will be a very private affair, a source said. Except for the family and very close friends of the couple, nobody will be present.

“The families of the couple decided to have a very close-knit engagement ceremony. They plan to invite the who’s who of southern film fraternity for the wedding which is slated to take place next year,” a source close to Nagarjuna’s family said.

At the function, popular Telugu composer Anup Rubens along with his team will be performing.

“Apart from Anup, popular playback singer Ankit Tiwari has also been roped in to perform Hindi songs at the event,” the source said.

Akhil and Shriya have known each other for many years.
