This has also led to rumours claiming that the cricketer broke up with singer Jasmin Walia.
Rumours linking cricketer Hardik Pandya and model Mahieka Sharma began after eagle-eyed Netizens analysed one of her selfies on Reddit and Instagram.
They claimed Pandya could be faintly seen in a corner of the photo.
They also pointed out that another of her Instagram Stories had his jersey number (#33) written on her thumb, beside a man's thumb with the same number.
Netizens also pointed out that the two had worn matching bathrobes in separate Stories posted sometime in August.
Mahieka Sharma reportedly studied Economics and Finance before turning to modelling and acting as a career.
Having worked with the likes of Manish Malhotra, Anita Dongre, and Tarun Tahiliani, the rising model has also appeared in music videos, indie films and brand campaigns for Tanishq, Vivo and Uniqlo.
In 2024, Sharma won Model of the Year (New Age) at the Indian Fashion Awards, earning her acclaim, as well as features in Elle and Grazia.
This has led to rumours claiming that Pandya broke up with singer Jasmin Walia.
Hardik Pandya began dating the singer after announcing his separation from model Natasa Stankovic, ending a 4-year marriage.
