October 23, 2025: Star Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya has put months of speculation to rest, officially confirming his relationship with model Mahieka Sharma by sharing intimate photos from their recent vacation on Instagram.
The all-rounder, who celebrated his 32nd birthday on October 11, took to social media on Wednesday, October 22, to share a carousel of cosy moments with his “ladylove,” simply captioning the post “Blessed.”
Maldives Birthday Getaway
The shared photos chronicled their romantic getaway to the Maldives, which doubled as a celebration for Hardik’s 32nd birthday. Highlights from the album include:
- A picture of the couple posing on a sun-drenched beach, with Hardik sporting a printed shirt and Mahieka looking stunning in a white mini dress, affectionately holding his arm.
- A stylish shot of the duo standing back-to-back in front of Hardik’s luxury Lamborghini Urus.
- A candid moment capturing them enjoying a buggy ride, with the cricketer tenderly holding Mahieka’s hand.
The post marks the strongest confirmation of their relationship, which first made headlines earlier this month when videos of them arriving together at Mumbai airport went viral, signalling their first public appearance as a couple.
Diwali Celebrations and Age Gap
The new couple has also been seen celebrating together, having recently twinned in striking red traditional outfits for the Diwali 2025 festivities.
Hardik’s new relationship comes after his alleged split from singer Jasmin Walia and his amicable separation from ex-wife Natasa Stankovic, which was announced in July last year. Hardik and Natasa continue to co-parent their son, Agastya.
Mahieka Sharma, a 24-year-old model who was born in 2001, is eight years younger than the 32-year-old cricketer. Sharma is an award-winning model known for her work with top brands and has an established presence in the fashion industry.
