As cricketer Arjun Tendulkar’s wedding preparations gather pace, public curiosity keeps shifting towards the woman who is set to join one of India’s most famous sports families — Saaniya Chandhok.
Who is Saaniya Chandhok?
While the Tendulkar surname needs no introduction, Saaniya has largely stayed out of the limelight, leaving many wondering who she is and what her background looks like.
Saaniya Chandhok hails from a well-established business family in Mumbai. Reports suggest that she grew up in an environment shaped by entrepreneurship and industry exposure, but instead of simply following the traditional corporate path, she chose to build her own identity professionally.
According to media reports, Saaniya worked as an entrepreneur in the pet care sector with a focus on developing quality products and services for animals – a business driven by her personal love for pets and animal welfare. Her work reflects a modern business approach that combines lifestyle interests with business.
Those close to the family describe her as private, grounded and largely uninterested in celebrity attention, which explains why she remained relatively unknown to the wider public until news of her relationship broke.
Interestingly, Saaniya knew the Tendulkars long before the wedding talks started. She is known to be a close friend of Sara Tendulkar, Arjun’s sister, and their friendship is said to have played a role in the couple becoming closer over time.
The engagement attracted attention not only because of Arjun’s cricketing lineage, but also because it coincided with the family’s celebration of important personal milestones for Sachin Tendulkar and his wife Anjali.
Friends and observers often describe the relationship as one that grew naturally within shared social circles rather than through public appearances or media exposure.
Unlike many partners of high profile athletes, Saaniya keeps a relatively low public profile. Her social media presence is limited and she rarely engages in public comments or promotional appearances. This aloof attitude has increased the public’s curiosity, especially as the wedding festivities approach.
Sources indicate that the upcoming wedding is expected to be a high-profile affair that will attract the attention of political leaders, sports personalities and businessmen. Invitations were reportedly extended to several prominent names, highlighting the scale of the celebrations.
