"Some of the biggest personalities in Indian cricket... have arrived to bless the couple - Report"

Mumbai, March 5

Several prominent names from the Indian cricket fraternity gathered in the city on Thursday to attend the pre-wedding ceremony of Sachin Tendulkar's son, Arjun Tendulkar and entrepreneur Saaniya Chandhok.

Arjun, who has followed in his father's footsteps and plays domestic and league cricket, is set to tie the knot with his long-time partner, Saaniya Chandhok on Friday, after months of preparations and celebrations.

The couple got engaged in a private ceremony in August 2025, attended by close family members and friends. While they are finally getting married on March 5.

Some of the biggest personalities in Indian cricket, including former India captain MS Dhoni, ex-head coach Rahul Dravid, legendary leg-spinner Anil Kumble, World Cup-winning all-rounder Yuvraj Singh, and Karnataka State Cricket Association (KSCA) president Venkatesh Prasad, among others, have arrived to bless the couple on their special day.

Arjun's Wedding festivities began earlier this week with a series of traditional ceremonies and celebrations. Pre-wedding events, including mehendi and sangeet functions, were held in Mumbai, with several former and current cricketers in attendance.

Arjun's fiancee, Saaniya, is a Mumbai-based entrepreneur who comes from a prominent business family and is the granddaughter of industrialist Ravi Ghai, chairman of the Graviss Gup. She has built a career in the pet-care and animal welfare sector and is known for her work as a veterinary technician and entrepreneur.

Earlier in February, Sachin Tendulkar met Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde with his wife at his official residence and extended an invitation for the wedding ceremony of his son.

India's batting legend has also extended invitations to President Droupadi Murmu, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah and Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi for the wedding celebrations.

Meanwhile, Arjun has been in great form in the DY Patil cup and will play for the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026.

God's own family is growing! Sachin sir must be so proud. Hope Arjun carries forward the legacy, both on and off the field. All the best to the young couple. May they have a blessed married life.

Respectfully, the article mentions invites to the President, PM, and other top leaders. While it's a personal celebration, such high-profile political guest lists for a celebrity wedding always feel a bit excessive. The focus should remain on the couple and their families.

It's lovely to see Saaniya's work in animal welfare highlighted. She seems to have built her own identity beyond being from a business family or marrying into a cricketing one. More power to her! Wishing them both the very best.

The guest list is a who's who of Indian cricket! Thala Dhoni's presence alone makes it iconic. Hope someone posts pictures from the sangeet. Arjun bhai, all the best for married life and for the upcoming IPL season with LSG!

Such a perfect match! Wishing them a life filled with love, laughter, and lots of sixes (courtesy Arjun, of course!). The pre-wedding festivities in Mumbai must have been spectacular. Hearty congratulations to the Tendulkar and Chandhok families!
