Sachin Tendulkar's son Arjun Tendulkar has been engaged to Saaniya Chandok in a private ceremony that was attended by close friends and family, according to reports. There has been no official confirmation from the Tendulkar or the Ghai family when this report was published.

Who is Saaniya Chandok?

Saaniya Chandok is the granddaughter of Mumbai-based businessman Ravi Ghai. She graduated from London School of Economics and is a designated partner and director at Mr Paws Pet Spa & Store, a luxury pet salon in Mumbai.

The Ghai family's business focuses on hospitality and food industries. They own the InterContinental hotel as well as the popular dessert brand, The Brooklyn Creamery. Ravi Ghai is the chairman of Graviss Group, which is the parent company of The Brooklyn Creamery.

Left-arm pacer Arjun has played for the Mumbai Indians in five matches over two seasons and taken three wickets. He is yet to wear the Indian jersey. His under-19 debut for India was in 2018 against Sri Lanka. Later, he made his T20 debut for Mumbai in the 2020–21 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy against Haryana.

After joining Goa in 2022, Arjun debuted in first-class cricket in the Ranji Trophy while playing against Rajasthan. He bagged his maiden century with 120 off 207 balls in the first innings.

When Sachin passed off Raina as Arjun

Arjun Tendulkar recently made headlines after the latest episode of JioHotstar's Cheeky Singles, when Suresh Raina recalled an instance when Sachin Tendulkar pulled a prank. "We were once going to play a Test match when I was about 18 years old, and I was sitting in business class next to Sachin paaji," Raina recounted.

"The air hostess assumed I was Arjun Tendulkar, she said something to him about me in passing; Sachin paaji saw a chance to have some fun. He replied, 'Yes, he's not studying at all, what to do? I've even told Anjali (Tendulkar)," Raina added.

However, later Sachin clarified to the air hostess that Raina was part of the Indian cricket team and not his son.
