Ameesha Patel has recently responded to escalating social media speculation that she is romantically involved with cricketer Hardik Pandya. The rumors gained traction after a video of them together at Mumbai's Taj Mahal Palace circulated online. In the clip, Patel is seen placing her hand on Pandya's shoulder, a gesture that fueled further discussion.

Responding to a post on X (formerly Twitter), Patel sarcastically dismissed the romantic implications of the interaction.

Hardik Pandya's personal life has also been a subject of public interest. He is currently in a relationship with model Mahieka Sharma, with their link-up speculated since October 2025. Pandya confirmed their relationship on Instagram. Prior to this, he was married to Natasha Stankovic, with whom he announced separation in 2024, and they continue to co-parent their son, Agastya.
