Cricketer Hardik Pandya is once again in the spotlight, but this time it isn’t for his on-field heroics.
Hardik Pandya has grabbed everyone’s attention once again, for his new alleged relationship. This time, social media users are wondering if Hardik is dating model Mahieka Sharma. (Image: Instagram)
Hardik Pandya’s link with model Mahieka Sharma began when a Reddit thread speculated about a video showing a faint male figure in the background of a selfie. Another post hinted at jersey number 33, often associated with Hardik. Soon after, comments like “New tournament, new girlfriend” spread online. Fans also noted that both Hardik and Mahieka follow each other on Instagram, adding fuel to the gossip. (Image: Instagram)
So, who is Mahieka Sharma? Mahieka completed her degree in Economics and Finance before she transitioned into full-time modelling and acting. (Image: Instagram)
She has been featured in several music videos, independent films, and ad campaigns for brands such as Tanishq, Vivo, and Uniqlo. (Image: Instagram)
She has also walked the ramp for top Indian designers such as Manish Malhotra, Anita Dongre and Tarun Tahiliani, among others. (Image: Instagram)
In 2024, Mahieka was honoured with the “Model of the Year (New Age)” award at the Indian Fashion Awards. (Image: Instagram)
Mahieka Sharma is also known for her professionalism. In 2024, she faced an unexpected challenge when she developed a severe eye infection ahead of an important show. However, despite the discomfort and irritation, Mahieka chose not to back out of the event. Instead, she walked the ramp with confidence. (Image: Instagram)
During another of her shows, Mahieka broke her heel. But despite being let down, she continued her walk. Speaking to Elle about the incident, she had once said, “I remember during the Gaurav Gupta show rehearsals – my eye was hurting so much, it was red and bloody and insane. The ramp was new to us – it had wide long stairs and as you know, my heel snapped right on the second stair during my walk. That show and walk were crucial for me this season. When the insane amount of love for that walk started pouring in, I felt rejuvenated, seen and appreciated.” (Image: Instagram)
Hardik Pandya was married to Natasa Stankovic. They tied the knot in 2020 but announced their separation earlier this year. The cricketer was then linked to British singer and TV personality, Jasmin Walia. (Image: Instagram)
