More Hina Rabbani Khar's India Visit Photo Gallery with SM Krishna, LK Advani

Pakistan's new 34-year-old female foreign minister Hina Rabbani Khar has won instant fans in India where a flurry of flattering headlines greeted her first trip to the country.

Pakistan foreign minister Hina Rabbani Khar arrives at Air Force station in New Delhi on July 26. Indian Twittersphere was ablaze with commentary of Rabbani Khar, who has taken over from Shah Mehmood Qureshi.

Krishna, a 79-year-old who takes great pride in his tailored suits, had a tough job of attracting attention when the two pose for photographs.

BJP leader LK Advani presents a bouquet of flowers to Hina Rabbani Khar. "Pak bomb lands in India," joked the Mumbai Mirror tabloid in a tongue-in-cheek reference to the history of wars between the countries.

Like Benazir Bhutto, Hina Rabbani Khar comes from one of Pakistan's leading political and land-owning families and her clan has extensive farms in Punjab, the richest and most populous province.

Journalist and author Seema Goswami saw a link between the monsoonal downpour that struck the Delhi on Wednesday morning and the generally fawning coverage of Khar.

All eyes on glamorous Pak minister," said the Rediff website. "She is clearly being looked at as a perfect combination of beauty and brains."
