Vahbbiz - article

Seems like Shakespeare's famous quote was meant for Vahbbiz Dorabjee who essays the role of Panchi in Ekta Kapoor's Pyaar Kii Ye Ek Kahaani.

She is one of the few Parsi actors on television, besides Delnaz Paul and Rushad Rana but what makes her case even more rare is her name and the difficulty involved to pronouce it.

After failed attempts to pronounce her name correctly, her co-stars and crew of the show have decided to call her by her character name, Panchi. But the fun doesn't end here as she is always teased by her co-actors who always jokingly ask her if she would spread her wings and fly. Though the name Vahbbiz means Gift of God in Persian, sadly till date not many have been able to pronounce her name correctly.

Better use a nome de plume than to offend God's gift. Isn't it Vahbbiz? Hope, we have got it correct.
