In a heartwarming and emotional moment, the Akkineni family gathered at the iconic Anupama Studio to seek blessings from the legendary ANR (Akkineni Nageswara Rao) statue, a tribute to the patriarch of the family. This intimate moment was shared on social media with the caption “#FamilyFirst #BlessingsFromANR #SoChay”, giving fans a glimpse of the strong bond and reverence the family holds for their roots.
The Akkineni family, led by the stalwarts Nagarjuna and Naga Chaitanya, has always been one of the most respected and cherished families in the South Indian film industry. This visit to the Anupama Studio—named after the legendary actor’s wife—is a nod to the deep respect and connection they share with their legacy, as well as a moment of reflection and homage to ANR’s contribution to Indian cinema.
The ANR statue, located at the studio, has always been a place where the family pays tribute to the matriarch, and this gesture of seeking blessings signifies the importance of family and tradition in their journey.
For Chaitanya (Chay), who has been making waves in both films and personal life, this moment of seeking ANR's blessings feels particularly poignant. It’s a beautiful reminder that, no matter how successful or established the family becomes, they remain grounded and connected to the legacy of their forebears. The hashtag #SoChay is a tribute to Naga Chaitanya, further deepening the emotional connection between him and the Akkineni legacy.
The post resonated with fans, who showered the family with love, respect, and blessings, further strengthening the Akkineni family's bond with their followers and admirers.
A moment of tradition, reflection, and family love—this gesture beautifully captures the essence of "Family First".
