Indian all-rounder Hardik Pandya, who is currently out of the team due to an injury, is hogging the limelight for his relationship with model Mahieka Sharma. The two were seen in red traditional outfits on the occasion of Diwali. Hardik was married to Natasa Stankovic, and the two separated in 2024. While Hardik was wearing a red kurta, Mahieka was seen in a red Bandhani suit.

The two were earlier spotted together at the Mumbai airport. Mahieka Sharma has been a face of Tanishq, Vivo, and Uniqlo. She has also worked with Manish Malhotra, Tarun Tahiliani, Anita Dongre, Ritu Kumar and Amit Aggarwal.

Hardik was last seen in action during the Asia Cup 2025. He was injured in the league match against Sri Lanka and went on to miss the final against Pakistan.

The selectors didn’t consider him for the ongoing tour of Australia after the cricketer couldn’t recover from the fresh setback. Ajit Agarkar, the head of the selection panel, revealed that Hardik is still down with a niggle and was not available for the matches against the Aussies.

He didn’t provide any information on the star player’s return to the Indian National Cricket Team. His absence was felt in the opening ODI at the Optus Stadium as Pandya’s replacement, Nitish Kumar Reddy, was not impactful in the bowling department.
