From Ron's adorable date, actress Afshan Azad has grown into a gorgeous woman. The British starlet of Bangladeshi descent who played Padma Patil in Harry Potter: Goblet of Fire just earned some serious Neville Longbottom-like points!

Padma Patil was Ron's unimpressed date at the Yule Ball in the movie. Sorry Ron but it looks like you missed out big time!

That was Azad as an awkward 16-year-old teenager. At the age of 27 now, Azad is making everyone on the internet do a double take.

The fashionista looks like she could be a long lost Kardashian sister.

Are those eyebrows on fleek or what?

Although everyone's been hyping about her good looks, Azad is actually confused by all the buzz as she tweets:

She is clearly not too amused by all the sudden attention.

Oh well, she's still gorgeous and managed to look at the silver lining by the end of it!
