Arun Sarnaik was an Indian actor and singer who worked in Marathi films. He was the son of the famous singer "Maharashtrakokil" Pt.

He was also an accomplished Tabla and Harmonium player. He was honoured with several awards and recognition for his contribution to cinema and society. Arun Sarnaik was born on 4 October 1935 in Kolhapur, Maharashtra, Bombay Presidency, British India. He belonged to the Barozaiclan of Pashtuns, whose ancestors had migrated from Afghanistan to India. His father was a personal driver of the Nizam of Hyderabad. Arun Sarnaik developed an interest in acting and music during his school days and participated in many plays and dramas. He moved to Mumbai to pursue his acting career and joined the film institute of director V. Madhusudhana Rao. He made his debut in the 1956 Marathi play Bhatala Dili Osri by Mo. Ga. Rangnekar. In 1961 he made his movie debut with Shahir Parshuram made by Anant Mane. He got his screen name Arun Sarnaik from this film, as he played a character named Arun. He went on to act in several films as a hero, villain, and supporting actor. He established himself as a popular actor with films such as Vardakshina, Vithu maza lekurwala, Chandanachi Choli, Anga Anga Jaali, and Sinhasan. He was known for his dialogue delivery and voice modulation. He also acted in some Hindi films, such as Zanjeer, Yaadon Ki Baaraat, and Kalicharan. He was a recipient of many awards, including the Nandi Award, the Filmfare Award South, and the NTR National Award. He was also conferred an honorary doctorate by the Karnatak University in 2013.

Arun Sarnaik died in a road accident on 21 June 1984 along with his wife and one of his two children while he was going from Kolhapur to Pune.
