Decoding the name ‘Mahvash’
"Mahvash" has Persian roots and carries profound cultural and linguistic meaning. The name embodies poetic beauty and is often given to daughters, symbolizing elegance, purity, and divine grace.
'Heavenly,' 'celestial,' 'shining,' and “moon-like.” are a few terms associated with the said name. So light, beauty, and an almost ethereal presence, are the images that are attached to it.
Now if we look at it etymologically, "Mahvash" is a compound word derived from two Persian elements:
"Mah" – meaning 'moon,' it is used to symbolize beauty and radiance in Persian literature and culture.
"Vash" – meaning 'glory or 'splendor,' it highlights magnificence and brilliance.
Mahvash on the dating rumours
This isn’t the first time Mahvash’s name has been associated with the cricketer. It all started last year, and Mahvash back then decided to speak her mind. Through her social media, she released a statement - "Some articles and speculations have been circulating around the internet. It's literally funny to see how baseless these rumours are. If you get seen with a person of the opposite gender, does that mean you are dating them? I'm sorry, what year is this? And how many people are you all dating then?"
“I have been patient for 2-3 days now, but I won't let any PR teams drag my name into this to cover up other people's images. Let people live in peace with their friends and family during tough times,” she continued.
