Are Hardik Pandya and Krunal Pandya on good terms? Rift rumours surface amid Mahieka Sharma link

India is celebrating their glory in the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026. But social media has turned its attention to the personal lives of two premier all-rounders, Hardik Pandya and Krunal Pandya. The pair is now the center of the online speculation, with the fans wondering if a quiet issue has developed between them. The rumours have begun after the event’s celebration.

Fans have noticed that there has been no congratulatory post from Krunal Pandya for his younger brother, who played a key role. Krunal’s wife, Pankhuri Sharma, didn’t post any celebratory messages either. The speculation didn’t stop as Krunal and Pankhuri were absent from the stadium during the WC fixtures.

There was a time Krunal used to react to Hardik’s post. Krunal remained silent online, but model and actress Mahieka Sharma’s attention has turned to something else. She was spotted attending the games during the event and was seen spending time with Hardik’s son, Agastya, as the all-rounder called the lady his ‘lucky charm’ during the post-match celebrations.

Speculation around the Pandya family has also been linked to Hardik’s divorce from Natasa in July 2024, as the social media users reckoned that Krunal and Pankhuri have remained close to Natasa and Agastya. It’s important to note that these claims largely come from the social media discussions rather than confirmed statements from the family.

Over the years, both players have often highlighted their shared struggles, training together as teenagers and supporting each other. Hardik Pandya has sparked a significant debate during the T20 World Cup 2026 celebration in Ahmedabad, as the reports have claimed that a lawyer in Pune has filed a complaint alleging that the younger Pandya was seen lying down with his girlfriend while being wrapped in the Indian national flag.

Both Krunal and Hardik will meet each other during the clash of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 between the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and the Mumbai Indians (MI) at the iconic Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. Krunal is part of the RCB side that enters the IPL 2026 as the defending champions.
