Mahieka showed her full support by dressing in MI colors. She wore a blue outfit with a white dupatta, matching the team’s jersey theme, and she looked absolutely beautiful.
In a lovely gesture, she walked in and out of the temple without wearing shoes. This gesture left the fans wondering if Hardik’s girlfriend has taken a special vow for the all-rounder and MI this season.
MI aims for strong finish this season
Meanwhile, Hardik is now stepping into his second season as the captain of Mumbai Indians. He took over the role from Rohit Sharma before IPL 2024, but things didn’t go well and he faced massive criticism. MI ended up at the bottom of the points table in the 2024 season.
But MI made a strong comeback in IPL 2025. Under his leadership, Mumbai Indians qualified for the playoffs before being knocked out by Punjab Kings in Qualifier 2. Now, the team must be aiming to add another piece of silverware to their cabinet this season.
