Looks like Hardik Pandya has finally made his new relationship official! The Indian all-rounder, who turned 32 on October 11, gave fans plenty to talk about after posting cosy photos with model Mahieka Sharma on his birthday. Just hours before his Instagram updates, the two were spotted walking hand-in-hand at the Mumbai airport—setting social media buzzing with speculation that a new romance was blooming in the cricketer’s life.
Hardik shared a series of Instagram stories featuring Mahieka, giving fans a glimpse into what appeared to be a romantic birthday getaway. The pictures included beachside moments, black-and-white portraits, and family snippets featuring his son Agastya, his mother, and grandmother. The warm, personal tone of the photos hinted at a fresh and happy chapter for the star cricketer.
Earlier in the day, the duo was seen arriving together at the Mumbai airport, dressed in coordinated black outfits. Paparazzi videos captured Hardik letting Mahieka walk ahead, a small but sweet gesture that quickly went viral. Fans couldn’t help but notice their comfort around each other, fueling excitement about the pair’s public debut.
This comes months after Hardik’s split from model and actress Natasa Stankovic. In a joint statement shared on Instagram in 2024, the couple announced their separation after four years of marriage, stating they would continue to co-parent their son, Agastya, while requesting privacy during the transition.
