Arjun Tendulkar, son of former India captain and cricket icon Sachin Tendulkar, has got engaged to Saaniya Chandok, the granddaughter of prominent Mumbai businessman Ravi Ghai.

The Ghai family is well known in the hospitality and food sectors, owning the InterContinental hotel and the ice cream brand Brooklyn Creamery. The engagement was a private affair, attended by close friends and family from both sides.

Arjun, 25, is a left-arm fast-bowling all-rounder who represents Goa in domestic cricket and has played for the Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League. Saaniya comes from one of Mumbai’s most recognised business families and is known to keep a low public profile.

Neither the Tendulkar family nor the Ghai family has issued an official statement about the engagement.
