On Thursday night, cricketer Hardik Pandya rang in Christmas alongside his girlfriend, Mahieka Sharma. A social media video captured the duo stepping out from a Mumbai bash, perfectly coordinated in maroon outfits. Mahieka turned heads in a sparkling saree, while Hardik paired his maroon kurta with sleek black jeans.
Hardik Pandya and Mahieka Sharma spotted together
Hardik Pandya was spotted gently guiding Mahieka Sharma to their car amid flashing cameras from the paparazzi. They hopped in and sped away, ignoring the photographers entirely.
The abusive fan confrontation
This follows a day earlier, when the couple encountered a huge fan of Hardik’s during their Christmas outing. It unfolded outside a restaurant post-celebration, Pandya had posed for selfies with some supporters, but a mob had formed. One eager fan, unable to squeeze through the security and crowd for a pic, lashed out with a rude shout—”Bhaad mein jao” (go to hell), yet Pandya stayed cool and composed.
Love story and T20I tribute
Earlier this year, Hardik made his romance with Mahieka official. Just recently, the cricketer credited his T20I triumph to her, pouring out admiration for his leading lady. He thanked Mahieka for her unwavering support, revealing that success has followed ever since she entered his world. He said, “A lot of credit goes to the loved ones which I had. Special mention to my partner as well. She’s been nothing but best to me since she has entered my life and a lot of great things have happened since she has arrived. “I think I’ve been a very honest and very real person in life as well, which has helped me a lot. I don’t really sugarcoat a lot in my life. It’s never about the other person, it’s never about how others think or how others perceive. It is always about how I feel inside. Now it’s time where Hardik Pandya wants to just play the sport and enjoy every second on the ground. Bigger and better will be the motto in my life”.
Earlier marriage with Natasa Stankovic
Earlier, Hardik was married to Natasa Stankovic in May 2020 and reconfirmed with Hindu and Christian ceremonies in 2023, before announcing their split in July 2024. The duo still jointly raises their son, Agastya.
