Social media has been flooded with pictures of Saaniya Chandhok, who married Arjun Tendulkar, son of the Indian cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar, on Thursday.
The wedding took place in a 5-star hotel, drawing several cricketers, businesspeople, and actors for the event.
The couple who got engaged in August 2025 celebrated the union following a series of pre-wedding events, including a grand puja hosted by the Ambani family in Jamnagar and a mehendi-sangeet in Mumbai earlier in March.
Saaniya Chandhok was born on June 23, 1998, in Mumbai and attended the city’s most prestigious educational institutions, including BD Somani International School and the Cathedral & John Connon School.
She did her higher studies in the United Kingdom, graduating from the London School of Economics and Political Science in 2020 with a degree in Business Management.
Additionally, she is also a certified veterinary technician, having completed the ABC programme from the Worldwide Veterinary Service (WVS) in 2024.
With her passion for animals, Saaniya founded Mr Paws Pet Spa & Spa LLP in Mumbai in 2022. The venture is known for offering luxury pet wellness services in India, providing specialised treatments.
Despite her family’s extensive business empire, Saaniya started her own venture, focusing on the rapidly growing pet-care industry in urban India.
Saaniya belongs to the influential Ghai business family. She is the granddaughter of Ravi Ghai, chairman of the Graviss Group. She is the daughter of Sunny and Gaurika Ghai Chandok.
Her family’s business interests are significant in the hospitality and food sectors, managing iconic brands such as The InterContinental Hotel, Basking Robbins India, and The Brooklyn Creamery.
According to sources, Saaniya Chandhok’s personal net worth is believed to range between INR 83 lakh and INR 4.15 crore, which is primarily generated from her pet-care venture rather than the broader family businesses.
The relationship between Arjun Tendulkar and Saaniya Chandhok dates back many years. According to reports, the two had known each other since their school days. Their families were also familiar with each other for a long time.
On the other hand, Saaniya and Sara Tendulkar have been close friends for several years and were often seen spending time together during family gatherings, holidays and casual outings with the Tendulkar family.
