Arjun Tendulkar, the 25-year-old son of cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar, is officially engaged to Saaniya Chandok in a private ceremony attended by close friends and family. The intimate engagement has captured the attention of fans on social media, celebrating the union of two influential families.
Who is Saaniya Chandok?
Saaniya Chandok comes from one of Mumbai’s most prominent business families. She is the granddaughter of industrialist Ravi Ghai, whose Graviss Group owns the Brooklyn Creamery, manages Baskin-Robbins in India, and operates the InterContinental Hotel in Mumbai. The conglomerate also has several ventures in the hospitality and food sector. Graviss Food Solutions Private Limited, the parent company, recorded a revenue of ₹624 crore in FY 2023–24, marking a 20% growth from the previous year.
Beyond her family’s legacy, Saaniya has carved her own path. She is the Designated Partner and Director at Mr. Paws Pet Spa & Store LLP, a Mumbai-based venture she has been actively involved in since 2022. Reports also note that she has academic credentials from the London School of Economics and a Veterinary Technician diploma from the Worldwide Veterinary Service (WVS), completed in 2024. Despite her business background, she has largely stayed away from the public spotlight, maintaining a low profile.
Arjun Tendulkar’s Cricketing Journey
Like his father, Arjun is pursuing a professional cricketing career but on his own terms. A left-arm fast bowling all-rounder, he made his T20 debut for Mumbai in the 2020–21 season against Haryana before moving to Goa in 2022–23. Since then, he has played 17 First-Class matches, scoring 532 runs (including one century and two fifties) and taking 37 wickets, with one five-wicket haul. In List A cricket, he has featured in 17 matches, and he has also represented the Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League, appearing in five matches.
A Family Bond
The engagement also highlights the growing bond between the Tendulkar and Ghai families. Arjun’s sister Sara Tendulkar has shared pictures with Saaniya on her Instagram, suggesting a close friendship between the two.
Though the families have not issued an official statement, the news has been widely confirmed by media outlets. The ceremony reflected the private nature of both families, yet it represents a powerful blend of cricketing heritage and business prominence. Fans across the country have extended heartfelt wishes to the couple as they step into a new chapter together.
