  • Hardik credits Mahieka for support during his cricketing successes

Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya has once again set social media buzzing by sharing a series of romantic photos with his girlfriend, model-actor Mahieka Sharma, as the couple welcomed the New Year together.

The images posted on Instagram capture the duo in affectionate moments and coordinated outfits, with both seen wearing matching red and maroon ensembles showcasing their chemistry and closeness in a public display of their relationship.

In the photos believed to be taken during recent celebrations, including Christmas and New Year’s Eve, Hardik and Mahieka smile and pose closely, prompting fans to gush over them as a “best couple” on social media.

Some pictures show the pair striking poses in maroon outfits, while others feature candid moments with friends and even with pets, highlighting a relaxed, joyful atmosphere.

Hardik originally confirmed his relationship with Mahieka in October 2025, putting an end to months of dating rumours after his divorce  from ex-wife, Natasa Stankovic. The couple first gained widespread attention when they were spotted together at Mumbai airport and later shared personal photos from a beach vacation and other outings, confirming their status as partners on social media.

Mahieka Sharma is a model and actress who has been building her profile in the fashion and entertainment world, often appearing in posts with Hardik, which have been warmly received by many fans. Hardik has also publicly dedicated moments from his cricketing success to Mahieka, expressing how much support she has given him both on and off the field.

Hardik Pandya recently dedicated a significant on-field victory to his partner, highlighting her role as a source of strength and support in both his personal life and cricketing journey.

Hardik Pandya credited Mahieka for being a stabilising force during challenging times, saying that many of his recent successes have occurred “since she entered my life”.

Speaking after India’s dominant T20I win — in which he made a key contribution — Hardik Pandya offered heartfelt praise for Mahieka, acknowledging that she has stood by him through ups and downs and played an important part in helping him regain confidence and focus.

“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," he said.

“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," he added.
