IPL 2025 season is off to an electrifying start, with drama unfolding both on and off the field. Amid the intense cricketing action, one moment that caught everyone’s attention was the appearance of British singer and TV personality Jasmin Walia in the stands during the Gujarat Titans vs Mumbai Indians match. Her presence has reignited rumours about her relationship with Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya, adding a layer of intrigue to the already thrilling tournament.
Mumbai Indians’ struggle for momentum in IPL 2025
Mumbai Indians entered IPL 2025 with high hopes but stumbled in their opening match against arch-rivals Chennai Super Kings. The loss placed additional pressure on the team as they faced Gujarat Titans at the iconic Narendra Modi Stadium, seeking their first win of the season. Eventually losing the game by 36 runs.
In a significant boost for MI, Hardik Pandya returned to captain the team after missing their first game due to a ban carried over from last season. Pandya’s leadership is pivotal for Mumbai Indians, especially given his experience leading Gujarat Titans to their maiden IPL title in 2022. His comeback not only strengthens MI’s lineup but also raises expectations for a turnaround in their fortunes.
Jasmin Walia’s appearance sparks buzz with her appearance
While cricket fans were focused on Pandya’s performance on the field, Jasmin stole some of the spotlight from the stands. The British singer and TV star was seen sitting beside Devisha Shetty, wife of MI’s Suryakumar Yadav. Her presence immediately fuelled speculation about her rumoured relationship with Pandya.
Jasmin has been linked to Pandya since his divorce from Serbian model Natasa Stanković last year. Reports of their relationship gained traction after fans noticed similarities in photos posted by both individuals during separate vacations in Greece. Though neither party has confirmed their relationship, their public appearances continue to spark curiosity among fans.

Pandya’s personal life has been under scrutiny ever since his divorce from Natasa, with whom he shares a son, Agastya.
