Akhil Akkineni, the chocolate boy of Tollywood with a legacy and genetic jackpot to boot maybe a few films old but on the fashion front, he treads with a well-curated style arsenal. A delight to reckon with, Akhil is the son of actors Akkineni Nagarjuna and Amala, the grandson of actor Nageswara Rao, and half-brother of Akkineni Naga Chaitanya. Having pursued acting at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute, Akhil made his debut in 2014 through a cameo in Manam followed by a lead role in Akhil in 2015. Akhil turns 26 today and his millennial versatile sensibilities reflect well into his style as he goes on to pull off a coupe that features classy suits, contemporary ethnic ensembles and cool casuals with equal ease.
As a contemporary fashion-aware man who loves experimenting, Akhil is always dressed to impress. Not only has he undertaken the ardent task of revamping men’s style quotient in the very men’s fashion-nascent arena but ups the vibe with a strong vanity game. Ahead, we rounded up a style capsule of Akhil Akkineni's versatile and dapper fashion moments that reaffirm this millennial's consciousness.
