Hardik Pandya has stepped into a new chapter of his personal life, and social media is buzzing with speculation again. The cricketer, who recently confirmed his relationship with model and actor Mahieka Sharma, has been posting a series of warm, intimate moments on Instagram. What this really means is that fans are getting a closer look at his life outside the stadium, and they’ve spotted something intriguing.
The rumours picked up speed after Hardik shared a thread of pictures from a private havan ceremony held at his home. The couple appeared in soft-toned matching traditional outfits, sitting close together as they performed the ritual. The setting felt calm, domestic and very intentional. But the real stir started when followers noticed a giant diamond ring sparkling on Mahieka’s hand.
That single detail became the talking point across social platforms, with comments ranging from congratulations to pure curiosity. Many believe the ring hints at an engagement that the couple hasn’t officially announced yet. Neither Hardik nor Mahieka has addressed the buzz so far, and that silence has only added fuel to the speculation.
Hardik’s personal life has already lived in the spotlight over the last few years. He was earlier married to Serbian model and actor Natasa Stankovic. The two tied the knot in 2020 and welcomed their son, Agastya, the same year. Their separation in 2024 was confirmed through a joint statement where they acknowledged the decision was difficult but mutual. They also reassured fans that co-parenting would remain their priority, with Agastya at the centre of both their lives.
Since then, Hardik has quietly built a new relationship with Mahieka, and the couple has been increasingly public about their bond. The havan pictures mark their most traditional and family-oriented appearance yet, and the ring has shifted the conversation from dating to something deeper.
On the other side, Natasa has maintained a low profile, focusing on her fitness journey and spending time with Agastya. Her social media reflects a routine anchored in self-care and motherhood, without any hints of a new relationship.
Whether the dazzling ring signals an engagement or simply a piece of jewellery she loves, Hardik and Mahieka have certainly set the internet talking. Their next post might answer the question — or spark another wave of theories altogether.
