Sunita Marshall, a celebrated supermodel and actress, has carved a niche for herself in both fashion and television. Known not just for her talent but also for her graceful balance between career and family life, she continues to earn admiration across industries. Recently, she appeared on Ushna Shah’s show, where she reflected on her personal and professional journey.
During the conversation, Ushna pointed out an observation many fans have made over the years—that Sunita bears a striking resemblance to superstar Mahira Khan. Laughing, Ushna admitted she hadn’t noticed it before, prompting her to ask Sunita if she often gets compared to Mahira.
Sunita confirmed that she hears it quite frequently. “Yes, people do say I look like Mahira,” she shared with a smile. She added that it’s become an inside joke between the two actresses. “Whenever we meet, we say we must’ve been sisters separated at birth.” Sunita explained that their similar face cuts, lips, and hair textures often make their photos look alike, fueling the comparisons even further.
Despite the constant parallels, Sunita embraces the resemblance with warmth and good humor. She appreciates Mahira’s work and finds the comparisons flattering rather than bothersome. Their mutual admiration reflects a healthy camaraderie rather than rivalry—something rare and refreshing in the entertainment world.
Throughout the podcast, Sunita also touched upon her early modeling days, transitioning into acting, and how she’s grown with every role. She credited her family’s support, especially her husband Hassan Ahmed, for helping her stay grounded amidst fame and expectations.
With elegance and humility, Sunita Marshall continues to shine in her own light, while graciously embracing the comparisons with Mahira. Whether fans see similarities or not, there’s no denying that she stands strong as a talent in her own right.
