In a heartwarming turn of events that has quietly captured the attention of cricket fans and social circles alike, Arjun Tendulkar, son of cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar, is officially engaged to Saaniya Chandok, according to media reports. The ceremony, described as an intimate gathering, was attended by close friends and family members from both the Tendulkar and Chandok families.
Saaniya Chandok, the granddaughter of Mumbai industrialist Ravi Ghai, comes from a well-established family with deep roots in the hospitality and food industries. The Ghai family is known for owning the InterContinental Hotel in Mumbai and the popular dessert brand Brooklyn Creamery. Despite her high-profile lineage, Saaniya is known for keeping a low public profile, making this engagement all the more surprising for those outside the inner circle.
25-year-old Arjun, a left-arm fast-bowling all-rounder, currently plays for Goa in domestic cricket and has previously represented the Mumbai Indians in the IPL. Starting out in Mumbai’s junior cricket leagues and earning a spot on the India U19 team, Arjun has steadily carved out his own identity in Indian cricket, often under the shadow of his legendary father.
The engagement reportedly took place in a private ceremony, with both families keeping the celebrations under wraps and no official statements released yet. Fans have flooded social media with congratulatory messages, while others eagerly await more details—or perhaps, wedding bells.
As Arjun continues to make strides in his cricketing journey, it looks like he’s now also stepping into a new chapter off the field—one that blends cricket royalty with Mumbai's business elite.
