 Hardik appeared protective as he walked Mahieka through the mob, sheltering her from the cameras and guiding her to the airport gate. Since his divorce, Hardik has kept his personal life secret, avoiding headlines and never appearing in public with his then-girlfriend Jasmin, even though she was frequently photographed attending his matches and cheering him on from the stands. This is the cricketer's first public appearance with his ladylove.

Social media investigators did not stop there. A few even pointed out that Hardik and Maheika appeared to be wearing the same bathrobe in separate photos, sparking debate across social media platforms.

Fans also pointed out that Hardik and Maheika follow each other on Instagram. Earlier last month, Maheika tweeted a snapshot from Baroda, which admirers quickly identified as Hardik's residence.
