Sachin Joab (born 1978) is an Australian actor. He took an interest in acting during primary school and attended various acting schools and workshops. Since graduating from the National Theatre, Joab has appeared in several films and television, including City Homicide, Rush, My Year Without Sex, 10 Terrorists, and Conspiracy 365. In 2011, Joab successfully auditioned for the recurring role of Ajay Kapoor in the soap opera Neighbours. He was later promoted to the main cast. Joab left the show in May 2013. The actor has since appeared in SBS miniseries Better Man and feature film Lion.

Joab's parents immigrated from India to Australia in 1977 and Joab was born the following year in Melbourne, Victoria. His parents divorced when he was five years old. Joab became interested in acting during primary school when he was around seven or eight. He told Tanu Kallivayalil from the Indus Age, "My parents like a lot of Indian parents wanted me to do something credible. But I did not want to become a lawyer or doctor or something like that. I wanted to do something that I was passionate about. In fact, I just finished high school because I did not want to make my mum sad."

Joab then attended various acting schools and workshops, before he moved to New York to study at the Actors Studio. Joab, who spent his childhood imitating the voices of characters he watched on television, did not need to undergo accent training. On his return to Australia, Joab joined the National Theatre, graduating three years later. He then began appearing in films and theatre productions, before being signed to an agent.
