Cricketer Hardik Pandya has now ended weeks of rumors by announcing that he is in a relationship with model Mahieka Sharma. Two years since he broke up with Natasa Stankovic, the Indian all-rounder declared his new affair official through a series of Instagram posts, along with his birthday celebrations. The couple is currently holidaying in a beach location, and Mahieka has been regularly posting moments from their vacation on social media.
Mahieka went to Instagram Stories to share a video of herself preparing in a pale pink dress, suggesting a celebratory event. It was followed by a photo of Hardik, captioned with the crown, cake, and hamza (evil-eye) emoji, setting the tone for an emotional birthday bash. The background song Rihanna’s “Daddy’s Home” gave it a personal and intimate touch, unmistakably setting the mood of the day.
Mahieka posted another story where she shared an image of a bathtub filled with floating letters that read “Happy Birthday,” with a pink heart emoji incorporated into the setting. She also shared a breathtaking beach photo, providing fans with more peeks into the island getaway. Through these posts, Mahieka not only confirmed the relationship but also highlighted the couple’s tight chemistry and connection.
The relationship had gone officially public when Hardik posted a picture on his Instagram Story of himself and Mahieka at the beach. It was a casual outing, in an oversized jacket, shorts, and slippers, with Hardik having his arm wrapped around Mahieka’s shoulder. He tagged her in the update, calmly confirming their relationship. Later, he also shared a black-and-white photo of the two standing side by side, superimposing a blue evil-eye emoji onto it — an emblem commonly used to repel negativity and guard valuable things.
Seventh younger than Hardik, Mahieka Sharma is a star on the rise in India’s fashion world. She has graced covers of top fashion magazines like ELLE and Grazia, received the Model of the Year award at the Indian Fashion Awards, and is known to be affilitated with high-end brands like Tanishq, Vivo, and Uniqlo. Mahieka keeps walking the ramp in designer outfits by the likes of Tarun Tahiliani, Manish Malhotra, and Anita Dongre.
