Indian Celebrities Who Visited the Maldives in 2023 and 2024

Indian celebrities have long been among the most frequent high-profile visitors to the Maldives. During the COVID-19 pandemic, when many international destinations remained closed, the Maldives quickly became a favourite getaway for Bollywood stars seeking privacy and tropical scenery.

Even after travel restrictions eased, the trend continued. From family holidays to birthday celebrations and honeymoons, several Indian celebrities were spotted enjoying island escapes across the Maldives throughout 2023 and early 2024.

Here are some of the Indian celebrities who visited the Maldives during this period.

Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna welcomed the New Year in the Maldives together with their children Aarav and Nitara. The family celebrated the start of 2024 with a holiday at Soneva Jani Maldives, sharing glimpses of their vacation through social media.

Bollywood actress Ananya Panday celebrated her 25th birthday in the Maldives towards the end of 2023. Like Akshay Kumar and his family, she chose Soneva Jani for her island getaway, sharing photos from the resort during her birthday trip.

Indian actress Taapsee Pannu, known for her role in the film Dunki, was also spotted vacationing in the Maldives. She shared moments from her stay at OZEN RESERVE Bolifushi, highlighting the island’s scenic sunsets.

Actor Vijay Varma shared glimpses of his Maldives vacation in November 2023. Fans speculated that some of the photos were taken by actress Tamannaah Bhatia. Following the trip, the actor appeared in the Netflix film Murder Mubarak.

Actress Parineeti Chopra was spotted on a trip to Waldorf Astoria Maldives in October 2023. She shared photos from the island getaway on Instagram, noting that the visit was a relaxing holiday rather than a honeymoon.

Bollywood actress Shanaya Kapoor also visited the Maldives in late 2023. She stayed at Fushifaru Maldives following her debut role in Karan Johar’s film Bedhadak, alongside Lakshya and Gurfateh Pirzada.

Actress Sonnalli Seygall and her husband, restaurateur Ashesh L. Sajnani, travelled to the Maldives for their honeymoon in 2023. The couple spent five days at Villa Nautica Maldives (formerly Paradise Island Resort), sharing several moments from their trip.

Several other Indian celebrities also visited the Maldives during this period, including:

The Maldives continues to be a popular destination for Indian celebrities thanks to its privacy, luxury resorts, and easy flight connections from major Indian cities. From honeymoons to birthday celebrations and family vacations, the islands remain one of Bollywood’s favourite tropical escapes.
