Hardik Pandya Angry After Paparazzi Cross Limits With His Girlfriend

Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya has openly criticized the paparazzi for crossing limits while filming his girlfriend, Mahieka Sharma, during a private moment. The incident happened at a restaurant in Bandra, Mumbai, where Mahieka was walking down the stairs. The photographers allegedly filmed her from a very uncomfortable and disrespectful angle which deeply upset the cricketer.

Hardik shared his anger on Instagram through a strong message. He said that he understands that being a public figure invites attention and media focus. However, he clearly stated that what happened this time went beyond acceptable limits. According to him, Mahieka was simply walking normally when the paparazzi chose to capture her in a way that no woman deserves.

In his message, Hardik said that this was not about getting headlines or breaking news. He stressed that it was about basic respect. He reminded everyone that women deserve dignity and that everyone, including celebrities, deserves personal space. He also said that he respects the hard work of the media and usually cooperates with them. But he politely requested the paparazzi to be more careful and sensitive while doing their job.

Hardik and Mahieka made their relationship public in October 2025. Before that, fans began guessing about their relationship after seeing their social media interactions and travel photos. Hardik later confirmed their bond by sharing personal pictures from a beach holiday and a special puja ceremony. This happened just before his 32nd birthday.

Mahieka Sharma is a young model and yoga trainer. She is 24 years old and has worked with top fashion designers. She also holds a degree in Economics and Finance. Since their relationship became public, fans have been showing love and support to the couple.
