A clip of Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya holidaying with British singer Jasmin Walia in Sri Lanka has surfaced online again, fuelling speculation about their relationship.
The video, which was captured during Pandya’s visit to Sri Lanka last year, captures the pair exiting a cab together. Walia was dressed in a stylish white summer outfit, while Pandya wore a cowboy hat and sleeveless top. The cricketer was soon spotted by fans and tried to pose for selfies with him, even though he did not seem in the mood.
Hardik Pandya’s personal life under scrutiny
The video has been shared widely on social media, particularly after Pandya parted ways with Serbian actress Natasa Stankovic amidst a high-profile divorce. It has only given rise to whispers regarding the circumstances of his connection with Walia, who made her name in Bollywood with a popular song, “Bom Diggy.”
Here’s the video:
Pandya’s private life has frequently come under the glare, and his split with Stankovic in July 2024 contributed to the limelight he has found himself under. The couple have a son together named Agastya and called off their relationship after four years of marriage but have agreed on amicable co-parenting.
The fanbase has long been eager to draw connections between Pandya and Walia since she posted pictures with a surprise guy on Instagram over the previous year. Detail-oriented fans assumed that the tattoos in the photos resembled Pandya’s, linking more gossip regarding their relationship.

Pandya’s readiness for IPL 2025 amid controversy
The video that has surfaced again is timely for Pandya ahead of IPL 2025. Having assumed the captaincy of the Mumbai Indians (MI) from Rohit Sharma in the previous season, Pandya received a lot of flak when MI ended at the foot of the points table. Despite that poor outing, he has remained upbeat about the team performing better this year under his leadership.
However, the Baroda-lad will miss MI’s opening match against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on March 23 due to a one-match suspension for over-rate violations during IPL 2024. Suryakumar Yadav will step in as captain for this match. This suspension adds pressure on Pandya to deliver strong performances once he returns to action later in the season.
