Hardik and Mahieka made heads turn at the event on Monday evening, which honoured the three World Cup-winning teams – the men’s team, the women's team, and the women’s blind team. This was one of their most public appearances together, with the couple posing for pictures on the red carpet. Hardik and Mahieka walked hand in hand, sharing smiles and warm glimpses through the evening. They even wore coordinated outfits in black.

The highlight of the evening for the fans, however, seems to be when Hardik introduced Mahieka to Amitabh. Numerous people on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram have reshared the insider video that has surfaced of the moment. In the video, Hardik is seen sweetly introducing Mahieka to the star, and the duo shakes hands. The Bollywood actor and the cricketer even shared a warm hug in the moment.
