Esha Gupta Opens Up About Her Brief Connection with Hardik Pandya

Esha Gupta Discusses Her Relationship with Hardik Pandya

Esha Gupta has recently addressed the speculation surrounding her rumored relationship with cricketer Hardik Pandya. In a conversation with Siddharth Kannan, she clarified that while they did communicate for a short time, it never developed into a full-fledged relationship.

Esha shared, “We were in touch for a while, but I wouldn’t say we were dating. It was more of a casual conversation for a couple of months. We were at that stage where it could have gone either way, but it ended before we could even start dating. We met once or twice, and that was about it. So, it was just a couple of months, and then it was over.”

When questioned about the potential for a real relationship, Esha acknowledged that it “might have happened,” but circumstances led to a quick end. She noted that timing and compatibility were not in their favor. “There was no drama or hard feelings,” she remarked. “It simply wasn’t meant to be.”

Esha also commented on Hardik's controversial appearance on Koffee With Karan in 2019, explaining that they had already lost touch by that time, and the episode did not affect her. “That didn’t impact me, as we had stopped communicating by then,” she stated.

On the professional front, Esha was last seen in Ek Badnaam Aashram 3 and One Day: Justice Delivered. There are rumors about her joining the cast of Hera Pheri 3, although there has been no official announcement yet.

Hardik Pandya and Natasa Stankovic got married during the lockdown in 2020 and welcomed their son in July of the same year. They celebrated a grand vow renewal ceremony in Udaipur in 2023 but announced their separation in July 2024. In their statement, they referred to it as a “difficult decision” while emphasizing their commitment to co-parenting their son, Agastya.
