Hardik Pandya has grabbed everyone’s attention once again, not for his cricket skills but for his new alleged relationship. This time, social media users are wondering if Hardik is dating model Mahieka Sharma. Rumours started after a Reddit thread speculated about a video showing a faint male figure in the background of a Mahieka’s selfie. While the two have not issued any official statement, confirming or denying their relationship, do you know who Mahieka Sharma is? Let’s know more about her here:
Who Is Mahieka Sharma?
Mahieka completed her degree in Economics and Finance before she transitioned into full-time modelling and acting. She has been featured in several music videos, independent films, and ad campaigns for brands such as Tanishq, Vivo, and Uniqlo. She has also
walked the ramp for top Indian designers such as Manish Malhotra, Anita Dongre and Tarun Tahiliani, among others. In 2024, Mahieka was honoured with the “Model of the Year (New Age)” award at the Indian Fashion Awards.
Mahieka Sharma is also known for her professionalism. In 2024, she faced an unexpected challenge when she developed a severe eye infection ahead of an important show. However, despite the discomfort and irritation, Mahieka chose not to back out of the event. Instead, she walked the ramp with confidence.
During another of her shows, Mahieka broke her heel. But despite being let down, she continued her walk. Speaking to Elle about the incident, she had once said, “I remember during the Gaurav Gupta show rehearsals – my eye was hurting so much, it was red and bloody and insane. The ramp was new to us – it had wide long stairs and as you know, my heel snapped right on the second stair during my walk. That show and walk were crucial for me this season. When the insane amount of love for that walk started pouring in, I felt rejuvenated, seen and appreciated.”
Hardik Pandya Was Previously Married To Natasa Stankovic
Hardik Pandya was previously married to Natasa Stankovic. The two, who tied the knot in May 2020 and renewed their wedding vows according to the Hindu and Christian rituals in February 2023, confirmed their separation in July 2024.
Announcing their separation, the couple said, “After 4 years of being together, Hardik and I have decided to mutually part ways. We tried our best together and gave it our all, and we believe this is in the best interest for the both of us. This was a tough decision for us to make, given the joy, mutual respect and companionship we enjoyed together and as we grew a family.”
“We are blessed with Agastya, who will continue to be at the centre of both our lives and we will co-parent to ensure that we give him everything that we can for his happiness. We sincerely request your support and understanding to give us privacy during this difficult and sensitive time,” they added.
