White chiffon dupatta, backcombed hair and green silk Shalwar Kameez; where have we seen this before?
White chiffon dupatta, backcombed hair, and a green silk Shalwar Kameez; where have we seen this before? We saw it once when the late Benazir Bhutto took oath as the first female Prime Minister of the country and the world. And we saw the same image again when her husband Asif Ali Zardari took oath as President. The former Prime Minister’s youngest daughter Aseefa Bhutto Zardari who seems to have morphed into a doppelganger of her beloved mother.
The resemblance was so stark that renowned journalist Hamid Mir tweeted the picture with the caption, “A picture is worth of thousand words.”

The pictures went viral as netizens start pointing out that Benazir Bhutto’s youngest resembles her.
Ramsha Quttab Uddin Khan posted about the “uncanny resemblance” of mother and daughter.

A user posted that the resemblance is beautiful and lamented that Pakistan really lost a gem when she was assasinated.
The resemblance with BB shaheed mashallah. Pakistan lost a great leader when she was assassinated.

President Asif Ali Zardari, elected President for the second time, has taken the decision to make his daughter Aseefa Bhutto Zardari the first lady.
The declaration was made through the party’s official Twitter handle.

Aseefa will be given First Lady protocol and she will be the first First Lady who is the daughter of the President. Usually, the status goes to the wife but here the decision was made because Aseefa Bhutto Zardari campaigned for her party in general elections and supported her brother Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, reports Geo.
Born on February 3, 1993, Aseefa Bhutto Zardari is part of a traditional political family of Pakistan. She is the youngest daughter of former Prime Minister of Pakistan Benazir Bhutto Shaheed and former President of Pakistan Asif Ali Zardari. Aseefa is also the younger sister of Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and Bakhtawar Bhutto Zardari and granddaughter of Shaheed Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, the former Prime Minister of the country and the founder of Pakistan Peoples Party.
She was seen walking beside her father during the oath-taking ceremony in the President’s House with her arm in his arm.
