Hardik Pandya has always been known for his energy, charisma and confidence both on and off the cricket field. Over the years, the Indian all-rounder has built a reputation as someone who embraces life with passion, whether it’s cricket, family or personal milestones. Recently, Hardik has once again found himself in the spotlight, this time for his growing relationship with model and actor Mahieka Sharma.
After weeks of speculation, the two have made their relationship public through a series of posts on social media. Their photos together have captured the attention of fans, hinting that Hardik is slowly opening a new chapter in his personal life. On Wednesday, the cricketer took to Instagram and shared several pictures from a recent getaway with Mahieka.
Some pictures showed the two posing together, while others captured more candid, intimate moments, including one where they were seen holding hands. In another photo, Hardik was sitting on a beach wearing a red shirt, surrounded by soft fairy lights, setting the scene for what looked like a romantic evening. He captioned the post simply with the word “Blessed”, letting the emotion speak for itself.

Mahieka Sharma, who has been making waves in the fashion industry, comes from a background in Economics and Finance before moving into full-time modelling and acting. She has appeared in music videos, independent films and several ad campaigns for top brands like Tanishq, Vivo and Uniqlo. Known for her elegance and professionalism, Mahieka has also walked the ramp for celebrated designers such as Manish Malhotra, Anita Dongre and Tarun Tahiliani. Her hard work and presence earned her the “Model of the Year (New Age)” title at the Indian Fashion Awards in 2024.
Despite her glamorous career, Mahieka Sharma is admired for her determination. Earlier in 2024, she reportedly continued to walk the ramp even while battling a severe eye infection, refusing to back out of an important fashion show. Her dedication and confidence have earned her praise within the modelling industry.
For Hardik Pandya, this relationship comes after a difficult period. The cricketer was previously married to actress and model Natasa Stankovic. The two tied the knot in May 2020, later renewing their wedding vows in February 2023 in a dual Hindu and Christian ceremony. However, in July 2024, the couple announced their separation through a joint statement, explaining that it was a mutual decision made with respect and understanding. They also emphasised their continued commitment to co-parenting their son Agastya, ensuring his happiness and well-being remained their priority.
Now with Mahieka by his side, Hardik Pandya seems to be rediscovering joy and balance in his personal life. Fans have responded warmly to the couple’s pictures, celebrating this new phase for one of India’s most loved cricketers. While Hardik remains focused on his cricketing goals, his latest posts suggest he is equally grateful for the new beginnings unfolding off the field.
