India’s star all-rounder Hardik Pandya has come in support of his girlfriend Mahieka Sharma, he released a statement where he clearly mentioned about Mahieka’s photos being taken in an inappropriate angle. He took to his Instagram and condemned the conduct of paparazzi highlighting that they crossed the line.
In the statement Hardik wrote “I understand that living in the public eye comes with attention and scrutiny, it’s part of the life I’ve chosen. But today something
happened that crossed a line. Mahieka was simply walking down a staircase at a Bandra restaurant when paparazzi decided to capture her from an angle that no woman deserves to be photographed from. A private moment was turned into cheap sensationalism.”

“This isn’t about headlines or who clicked what, it’s about basic respect. Women deserve dignity. Everyone deserves boundaries. To the media brothers who work hard every day: I respect your hustle, and I always cooperate. But I’m requesting you all, please be a little more mindful. Not everything needs to be captured. Not every angle needs to be taken.”
“Let’s keep some humanity in this game. Thank you.” Hardik concluded
