i am unable to tell you with certainty whether that is a Mughal painting (let alone an Akbari painting) or even a Rajput or Dakhani painting or not. It is possibly a modern painting representing an attempt to mimic the medieval indian styles of painting.

No he had nothing to do with Akbar. The first Nawab of Arcot was a representative of Aurangzeb.
