September 2025 News Archive – Top Stories on India Daily Tribune

September brought two buzz‑worthy moments that grabbed headlines across the country. On the sports front, Pakistan edged Bangladesh in Dubai to lock a place in the Asia Cup 2025 final against India. Meanwhile, Tollywood turned heads when actor Akhil Akkineni exchanged vows with artist Zainab Ravdjee at 3:35 am in Hyderabad.

Pakistan’s Nail‑Biting Win Secures Asia Cup Final Spot

On September 8, the Pakistan cricket team posted 135 runs in a modest chase‑friendly total. Haris Rauf and Shaheen Afridi turned the game on its head with pinpoint yorkers and swing, rattling Bangladesh’s batting line‑up. Bangladesh fell short at 124‑9, missing the target by 11 runs. The win capped a strong Super 4 performance that also included a victory over Sri Lanka. Fans are now gearing up for a showdown with India, a match many expect to be a classic South Asian rivalry.

The low‑scoring nature of the game reminded everyone that in cricket, defense can be as lethal as firepower. Pakistan’s bowlers showed that pressure in the death overs can swing the result even when the batting side looks comfortable. Expect the final to be a tactical battle, with both sides likely to rely on their pace attack to dictate terms.

Akhil Akkineni’s Early‑Morning Wedding

While the cricket world buzzed, Tollywood was busy celebrating love. Actor Akhil Akkineni married entrepreneur‑artist Zainab Ravdjee at 3:35 am on June 6, 2025, inside the Akkineni family house in Hyderabad. The ceremony blended traditional rituals with a modern vibe, and only close family and a handful of industry friends attended.

Nagarjuna, Akhil’s father and a veteran actor, announced the marriage on social media with a heartfelt post that quickly racked up likes. Later, Akhil shared candid photos of the couple’s first moments together, sparking a wave of congratulatory messages from fans and fellow actors. The reception, held later at Annapurna Studios, featured a relaxed atmosphere, with guests enjoying light music and a simple cake cutting.

This low‑key celebration stood out in a year full of lavish events, showing that even big‑screen stars appreciate intimacy. Zainab’s background in art and entrepreneurship added a fresh twist to the Akkineni family narrative, hinting at possible collaborations in the creative space.
