A new chapter has begun for the Tendulkar family, as Arjun Tendulkar, the son of cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar has gotten engaged to Saaniya Chandok. The media reports about the event has sparked immense interest on the social media. While Arjun continues to forge his own path in cricket, Saaniya comes from a distinguished business background, marking a new and exciting chapter for both the Tendulkar and Ghai families.
Who is Saaniya Chandok?
Saaniya is the granddaughter of renowned Mumbai businessman Ravi Ghai, a name deeply associated with the city’s hospitality and food industries. The Ghai family’s ventures include ownership of the upscale InterContinental hotel and the popular Brooklyn Creamery ice cream brand, giving them a significant and influential presence in Mumbai’s business landscape. Despite her family’s high-profile legacy, Saaniya has carved out her own identity as an entrepreneur founding a luxury pet care and grooming business in the city.
The private engagement ceremony, attended by close friends and relatives, reflects the families’ desire for a low-key celebration despite their public profiles. This union brings together a rising star in the world of cricket and a successful young entrepreneur from a storied business lineage. As the couple embarks on this new journey, the news has been met with warm wishes from fans and well-wishers, celebrating the blend of sporting ambition and business prowess.

Arjun eyeing breakthrough in top-level cricket
Arjun, representing Goa in the Ranji Trophy, is a left-arm medium-fast bowler and a left-handed batsman. He has showcased his all-round potential with notable performances, including a century on his Ranji debut. This past Ranji season, he continued his development, even achieving a maiden five-wicket haul against Arunachal Pradesh. Despite his domestic success, Arjun did not get an opportunity to play for the Mumbai Indians (MI) in the IPL this year, though he was bought back by the franchise. His recent engagement to Saaniya marks a new personal journey, which many hope will strengthen his resolve and focus as he continues to pursue his cricketing ambitions.
