Once in a heart-to-heart interview with crickettimes.com, Hardik Pandya had talked up about meeting his wife, Natasa Stankovic, for the first time in his life. The cricketer had opened up about the way things had ignited between them and how they had started dating. When Hardik was asked whether Natasa was a fan of him, the cricketer had surprisingly revealed that she wasn't aware of him at all. Reflecting on the same, Hardik shared a little bit about his love story and said:
"She had no idea who I was. I got her by talking. She saw someone in a hat at a place where I met her, wearing a hat, a chain, and a watch, at 1 am. So she thought he is ‘alag prakaar ka aadmi aaya’ (different kind of person came)."
