Recently, rumours were at rife that Pandya was in a relationship with actress Elli Avram. The speculations gained much. prominence. Moreover, many spotted the duo together at several events.
However, the rumours soon came to an end. The latest reports are suggesting that the two decided to call it off because Elli apparently wanted commitment and Hardik was hesitant.
A report by DNA quoted a source as saying, “Elli wanted a commitment, while Hardik was looking for something casual. This led to a lot of arguments between them and they called it quits.”
Fresh reports now indicate Hardik Pandya has moved on and is now in a relationship with Esha Gupta. The report claimed that the two met at a party and things progressed well.
The source quoted by DNA further added, “Right now, both of them are hush-hush about their budding romance. They want to see how things turn out.

Hardik recently represented Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Mumbai Indians (MI) in the season eleven of the league.
