Tendulkar household is currently celebrating as Arjun Tendulkar, left-arm pacer and son of cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar, is set to marry Saaniya Chandhok in early March 2026.
Here is everything you need to know about the bride-to-be and their journey together.
Saaniya is a Mumbai-based entrepreneur who comes from a prestigious business lineage. She is often in the spotlight now and has carved out a distinct career of her own.
Profession: Saaniya is a qualified Veterinary Technician and the founder of Mr. Paws, a luxury pet grooming and wellness spa in Mumbai.

Unlike many celebrity romances, Arjun and Saaniya’s relationship didn’t start in the limelight.
Long-time Connection: The two have known each other for years through their families. Saaniya is reportedly a very close friend of Arjun's sister, Sara Tendulkar.
Private Engagement: The couple got engaged in a very low-key, private ceremony on August 13, 2025. The news only went viral after a few photos from the intimate gathering leaked online.
Both prefer to stay away from social media drama and public displays of affection.
The wedding is shaping up to be one of the biggest events of 2026, though the family is trying to maintain its privacy.
Wedding Date: March 5, 2026.
The Festivities: Celebrations are expected to begin on March 3 with pre-wedding rituals like Mehndi and Sangeet.

Guest List: Sachin Tendulkar recently visited Prime Minister Narendra Modi to personally extend an invitation. Other expected guests include cricket icons like MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma, along with top business leaders and Bollywood stars.
