Mahima Chaudhry’s daughter Ariana Mukherjee leaves fans stunned — many say she looks just like Selena Gomez

Mahima Chaudhry made her return to cinema this year with Nadaaniyan — the film that also marked Ibrahim Ali Khan’s debut opposite Khushi Kapoor. But during the premiere, it was not only the star kids who captured attention. Mahima’s daughter — Ariana Mukherjee — instantly became the unexpected spotlight stealer. The 18-year-old star kid went viral overnight, and now she is trending again for something else — her uncanny resemblance to Selena Gomez.

Ariana’s salon outing triggers comparison wave

Recently, Mahima and Ariana were spotted walking out of a Mumbai salon, posing briefly for photographers before heading off. Ariana sported a simple striped shirt, soft bangs and kohled eyes — and social media users instantly began pointing out how much she reminded them of Selena.

Comments included:

• “Looks like Selena Gomez 😍”
• “She is more beautiful than Selena Gomez 😍😍”
• “Omg looking like a Barbie doll!”

Fans also call her a ‘little Mahima’

Many users also noted that Ariana looks very similar to her mother. Comments such as “Very pretty, just like her mom” and “Little Mahima” began flooding the posts.

Earlier this year, Ariana completed her school graduation and Mahima shared a heartfelt note about raising her daughter as a single mother and returning to work for Ariana’s future.

Proud bond between mother and daughter

Ariana is Mahima’s daughter with former husband Bobby Mukherjee. The two married in 2006 and separated in 2013, and since then Mahima has raised Ariana on her own.

In her emotional graduation post, Mahima wrote:

“This moment is ours. You and I did this together.”
