Who is Antony Thattil?
Antony Thattil is a Dubai-based businessman with roots in Kochi, Kerala. He reportedly owns a chain of resorts in Kochi, his hometown, and also has business ventures in Chennai, Keerthy’s hometown. Despite his success, Antony is known to be a media-shy individual who prefers to keep a low profile.
Unlike Keerthy, who has been in the public eye for years, Antony rarely makes public appearances or shares his personal life on social media. This explains why the couple has managed to keep their relationship under wraps for so long.

Keerthy and Antony’s love story began over 15 years ago when they met as teenagers. Reports suggest that the couple started dating around 2008-2009, when Keerthy was still in school and Antony was about to begin his undergraduate studies.
Despite being together for over a decade, the couple has kept their relationship incredibly private. They rarely appeared together in public or shared pictures on social media, leaving fans surprised when Keerthy finally introduced Antony to the world.
On November 27, just weeks before their wedding, Keerthy shared a heartfelt post on Instagram, writing:
“15 years and counting (infinity and evil eye emojis). It has always been… AntoNY x KEerthy (Iykyk).”
Interestingly, Keerthy even named her puppy Nyke, a combination of their names, as a sweet nod to their relationship.

Keerthy Suresh has always been private about her personal life, rarely discussing her relationships in public. However, in a past interview with SS Music, she shared her thoughts on what she looks for in a life partner:
