Hardik Pandya’s love story has unfolded quietly but steadily in the public eye. After a challenging phase in his personal and professional life, the cricketer found support and companionship in Mahieka Sharma.

Very recently, in an interview with JioStar, Hardik Pandya shared how his girlfriend Mahieka Sharma helped him rediscover his passion for cricket and reignite his excitement for the game. He said that after the last IPL season, he realised he hadn’t fully tapped into his batting potential and needed to reconnect with the joy of playing.

Conversations with Mahieka about the sport brought back the “childhood enthusiasm” he once had, motivating him to train intensely with long batting sessions. The couple, who confirmed their relationship in late 2025, have also been seen supporting each other in both personal and professional settings.
