Who is Sachin Tendulkar's wife

Anjali Tendulkar, the wife of one of the greatest cricketers in the world, is a well-known personality in India but has always managed to avoid the limelight to focus on her career and family.

Anjali Mehta was born on November 10, 1967, into a wealthy Gujarati family in Mumbai. Her father Anand Mehta is a renowned industrialist and her mother Annabel Mehta is of British origin. Her father is a former world bridge champion and Anjali herself was a gold medalist in college.

She was born and brought up in Mumbai, attended St. Xavier’s College and later graduated from a famous Grant Government Medical College. She practised paediatrician before her marriage to Sachin.

Sachin and Anjali first met at Mumbai International Airport when the former was returning to India after his first overseas tour of New Zealand in 1990. Sachin was only 17 and was surrounded by his teammate while Anjali was with her mother but didn’t recognise the cricketer at first. According to some reports, Anjali called out Sachin’s name and it was a love at first sight for the rising cricketer.

Anjali and Sachin then developed their love story after meeting at their common friend’s place and dated each other till 1994. The duo got engaged in 1994 and later married in May 1995 in Mumbai.

What is the age difference between the couple?

One of the biggest talking points of their marriage was a notable age difference of six years. Sachin was only 22 at the time of his marriage but that didn’t stop him from tying a knot with his love.

The couple proved that age is just a number in love and are enjoying a successful marriage and will be celebrating their 30th anniversary in 2025. Sachin and Anjali have a daughter Sara born in October 1997 and a son Arjun born in 1999. 

After her marriage, Anjali left practising medicine to focus on her family and reportedly played a huge role in supporting Sachin and making him one of the best cricketers of his generation. She later returned to her medical field and is known for her philanthropic work in the Indian community.
