Sara Tendulkar and ‘bhabhi’ Saaniya Chandhok twin in pastel ethnic looks for Rakhi lunch; fans say, ‘Looking so alike’

Sara Tendulkar and Saaniya Chandhok serve ‘bhabhi-nanad’ goals in dreamy pastel suits and bindi.
Sara Tendulkar and her sister-in-law Saaniya Chandhok shared a glimpse of their festive glam for a Rakhi lunch at home with a lively ‘get ready with us’ video. The duo documented the entire process, from applying blush, mascara, and lip liner to slipping into gorgeous pastel ethnic outfits.

More about their looks
The duo began getting ready in matching white T-shirts and jeans. They did their makeup first, showing glimpses of themselves applying mascara, blush, and lip liner while dancing and smiling. The video then cut to their ethnic ensembles, with Sara dressed in powder blue and Saaniya in baby pink. The pastel shades beautifully complemented each other.
Sara accessorised her look with silver bracelets, while Saaniya kept her jewellery minimal. Both completed their looks with bindis, adding a signature desi touch. Their makeup included softly flushed cheeks and a radiant base. Together, they provided an important lesson in coordinating or ‘twinning’ ethnic outfits without looking overly matchy-matchy.
Saaniya Chandhok tied the knot with Arjun Tendulkar earlier this year on March 5, 2026.
Reactions
Fans gushed over the duo. The video received plenty of love who could not get enough of Sara and Saaniya's bond. One user wrote, “You both are like siblings, always twinning and friendly.” The sibling-like fun and quirky energy in the get-ready-with-me video was noticeable. Another user also observed, “You guys are looking so alikeee.” Since Sara makes a lot of fun videos, a fan also joked, “Finally, you have someone who can make videos with you.” Their playful sibling bond clearly won over the hearts of their fans. Another commented, “Loveee the bhabhi and nanad duo.”

On lazier days, she can be found binge-watching, for the nth time, one from her comfort-show holy trinity: The Office (US), Brooklyn Nine-Nine, or Modern Family.
