Arjun Tendulkar, son of batting legend Sachin Tendulkar, has gotten engaged to Saaniya Chandok as reported by India Today. Saaniya is the granddaughter of prominent Mumbai businessman Ravi Ghai.
Unlike his father, Arjun, 25, is a left-arm fast bowler but is yet to earn his maiden cap for India. He, however, has played in the Indian Premier League (IPL) and represented Mumbai Indians in five matches, in which he has claimed a total of three wickets.
If we look at his career trajectory, Arjun started his domestic career with Mumbai in the 2020-21 season and made his debut in a T20 match against Haryana. Prior to that he represented Mumbai at the junior level, which helped him secure a place in India's U19 setup.
However, he discontinued his service for Mumbai and moved to Goa in the 2022-23 season, where he also made his First-Class and List A debut. Arjun has so far made 17 First-Class appearances in which he has claimed 37 wickets, which includes one five-wicket haul. With the bat, Arjun has 532 runs, which features a ton and a couple of half-centuries.
Arjun has played in 18 List A matches, where he has registered 25 wickets and amassed 102 runs.
Meanwhile, the Ghai family is renowned in the hospitality and food sector, and own the InterContinental hotel and the ice cream brand Brooklyn Creamery. She is known to keep a low public profile. As per reports, Saaniya is a Designated Partner and Director at Mr. Paws Pet Spa & Store LLP, based in Mumbai.
As per the report, the engagement ceremony was a private affair and was graced by close friends and family from both sides. Both the Tendulkar or the Ghai family are yet to issue an official statement on the same.
