Mahieka Sharma shows support for Hardik Pandya
Before Hardik Pandya started his Indian Premier League 2026 campaign, his girlfriend Mahieka Sharma visited the Siddhivinayak Temple in Mumbai. She went there to pray for him and the Mumbai Indians team before their match against the Kolkata Knight Riders at the Wankhede Stadium.
Mahieka showed her support by wearing a blue outfit with a white dupatta, matching the team colours. She also walked barefoot in the temple, which made fans feel that she may have taken a special vow for Hardik and the team this season.
At the same time, Hardik Pandya also made headlines by gifting her a Mercedes-Benz V-Class. The car costs around ₹1.7 crore in India. He personally gave her the luxury vehicle, and the moment quickly went viral on social media, with many fans reacting to the couple’s special moment.
The Baroda-based cricketer has a collection of many luxury and powerful cars. Earlier, he owned a Lamborghini Huracán EVO, which cost around ₹3–4 crore.
His car collection also includes top models like the Rolls-Royce Phantom, Lamborghini Urus, Mercedes-AMG G63, Range Rover Vogue, and Audi A6. Recently, he also added the Ferrari 12Cilindri to his collection.
MI aims for strong finish this season
Meanwhile, Hardik Pandya is starting his second season as captain of the Mumbai Indians. He took over the role from Rohit Sharma before IPL 2024. That season was difficult for the team, and they finished at the bottom of the points table. Hardik also faced a lot of criticism.
However, the Mumbai Indians came back strongly in IPL 2025. Under his captaincy, the team reached the playoffs but lost to Punjab Kings in Qualifier 2. Now, the team will aim to perform better and try to win another trophy this season.
