Legendary cricketer Sachin Tendulkar has officially confirmed that his son, Arjun Tendulkar, is engaged to Saaniya Chandok. The revelation came during an interactive “Ask Me Anything” session on Reddit, where a fan asked about the rumours surrounding Arjun’s personal life. Sachin responded with a short but heartfelt reply: “Yes, he did, and we are all very excited for the new phase in his life.”
This confirmation put an end to weeks of speculation after media reports earlier this month suggested that the two had exchanged rings. Until now, the Tendulkar family had chosen not to comment, which only added to curiosity among fans and followers.
Who is Saaniya Chandok?
Saaniya Chandok comes from a well-established business family in Mumbai. She is the granddaughter of entrepreneur Ravi Ghai, who has significant interests in the hospitality and food industry, including ventures such as the InterContinental Hotel and Brooklyn Creamery. Professionally, Saaniya has carved her own identity as the Designated Partner and Director at Mr. Paws Pet Spa & Store LLP, a venture focused on premium pet care services.
With this background, she brings both entrepreneurial experience and strong family ties in business. Her engagement with Arjun has naturally attracted attention, given the Tendulkars’ stature in Indian cricket and the Chandok family’s prominence in business.
