A new romance in the spotlight

One of the posts also featured glimpses of his family, his son Agastya, mother, and grandmother, along with another birthday cake, making the celebration a mix of love and togetherness.
From past rumours to new beginnings
Earlier this year, Hardik was rumoured to be dating UK-based singer Jasmin Walia, who was spotted at multiple Mumbai Indians matches during the IPL season. She was even seen stepping onto the team bus after a match against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR). However, the two reportedly parted ways soon after and unfollowed each other on Instagram. Hardik was previously married to Natasha Stankovic, with whom he shares his son Agastya. The couple tied the knot in 2020 during the Covid-19 pandemic but announced their separation in July last year. In a statement at the time, Hardik wrote, “After four years together, Natasa and I have decided to mutually part ways. We tried our best and gave it our all, and we believe this is in the best interest of both of us.”
