Hardik Pandya had a worse six months but surprised everyone with his excellent performance in the T-20 World Cup 2024. The cricketer, who was booed by the live audience during IPL 2024, soon turned the same crowd cheering for him in the Wankhede stadium in Mumbai. After receiving praise from higher authorities, his seniors and audiences, Hardik celebrated the victory with his son, Agastya Pandya.
When you have kids, you want to set an example. Hardik, who received a lot of criticism for his performance in the IPL 2024, worked super hard to turn it into cheers. As soon as he was back to his home, his family surprised him with a 'welcome home' party, and the ace cricketer made the day special by showing off his medal to his son Agastya.

In one of the pictures, we can see Hardik, who donned a black-toned co-ord set, was seen giving a kiss on his son Agastya's forehead as the little one happily wore his medal. Agastya looked excited as he saw his father, Hardik's medal. Along with it, Hardik penned a note:
"My #1! Everything I do, I do for you."
To welcome Hardik, the Pandya family decorated the home with blue-toned balloons and congratulations signs with the cricketer's initials.

Sharing a couple of pictures of Hardik over the years, Krunal Pandya penned an emotional note. He expressed his deepest feeling seeing his brother proving his worth in the T-20 World Cup. In the note, Krunal even addressed Hardik's tough phase and gave back to people who booed him. He added that people forget that the cricketers are also human beings and they too feel things. An excerpt of the same can be read as:
"The last six months have been the toughest for Hardik. He simply didn’t deserve what he went through, and as a brother, I felt very, very bad for him. From booing, to people saying all kinds of nasty things, at the end of the day, we all forgot that he is just a human being who also has emotions. He somehow passed through all of this with a smile, though I know how hard it was for him to put on a smile."
