15 Feb
Summary
- Hardik Pandya inked two leopards for girlfriend Mahieka Sharma.
- The tattoo symbolizes their shared strength and partnership.
- The design evolved from an initial 'M' into an elaborate concept.

Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya celebrated Valentine's Day with a unique and permanent gesture for his girlfriend, Mahieka Sharma, by getting a custom tattoo. The intricate design features two leopards inked on the back of his neck, representing their intertwined strength and partnership.
This meaningful tattoo was not merely a simple initial. Pandya's desire to ink the letter 'M' for Mahieka evolved into a more profound concept after discussions with artists from Aliens Tattoo. The final design showcases two leopards: one bold and fierce, symbolizing ambition, and another like a shadow, embodying grace and containing the initial.
Studio founder Sunny Bhanushali explained that the leopard metaphor perfectly captured the couple's dynamic, where they amplify each other's strengths. The tattoo, a collaborative effort by multiple artists, was completed early in the morning, signifying a permanent memory of their bond. Aliens Tattoo is known for its celebrity clientele, including other prominent sports figures.
