'Constant Need To Show Off': Netizens React After Viral Video Shows Hardik Pandya Talking To Girlfriend Mahieka Sharma After MI VS RCB Clash

· Free Press Journal

Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya is once again finding himself at the center of a social media storm. Following MI’s disappointing 18-run defeat to RCB at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday, a viral video featuring Pandya and his girlfriend, model-actress Mahieka Sharma, has drawn sharp criticism from fans.

The clip shows Mahieka Sharma making her way outside the Wankhede Stadium while talking to Hardik Pandya on a video call. While a video call isn't unusual, it drew attraction because it was shortly after the match concluded. That is despite Mahieka being in attendance at the game, with the timing not appreciated by fans, at least given the result.

In response, barring some late sixes from Sherfane Rutherford, Mumbai were way behind the eighth ball. Hardik himself got 40, but the result left a lot to be desired for the 5-time champions.
