Fans find uncanny resemblance between Raha and Atif Aslam’s daughter Haleema
As Atif Aslam sent fans into a frenzy by debuting two photos of his daughter Haleema on Instagram on her first birthday on March 23, fans across the internet could not help but note the striking resemblance between the one-year-old and Bollywood power couple Ranbir Kapoor and Aliya Bhatt’s sixteen-month-old daughter Raha, reported Pinkvilla.
To mark Haleema’s birthday, the star musician posted a sweet father-and-daughter moment where he is holding her up to the sky, alongside an adorable close-up portrait of the toddler leaning against the back of the sofa.
Racking up over 10,000 comments and more than a million likes in just a day, the hearts-strewn comments section was flooded with fans gushing over cuteness overload, and it was not long before comparisons were being drawn between what people felt was a mighty resemblance between Haleema and Raha.
"Wow, Atif Aslam's daughter Haleema and Ranbir Kapoor's daughter Raha look exactly alike, yaar!" commented one fan, whilst another fan echoed, "Both of them are so cute, Mashallah. Atif Aslam's daughter is like a Raha clone." A third fan questioned, "Am I the only one who thinks Raha and Haleema look identical?"
Evidently, they were not by any means the only ones who felt the two toddlers looked “identical”. Posting a side-by-side picture of the two little girls, another fan took to X to make her point. “Atif Aslam's Daughter Haleema and Ranbir Kapoor's daughter Raha are same to same! Masha Allah both are cute,” tweeted another fan.
With both little girls being pictured with the go-to toddler two-bunches hairstyle, along with a near-identical dress, it was not hard to see why.
Kapoor and Bhatt became parents to daughter Raha in November 2022, four months before Aslam’s daughter Haleema was born. With Raha first picture being shared with the world only in December 2023, both couples have largely kept their girls out of the public eye, sharing pictures only sparingly across social media only occasions they see fit.
