While we know him as Mohsin Khan today, very few know that his name was not Mohsin initially. The actor was called Wasim for a few days when he was born and later his name was changed to Mohsin. His name Wasim was related to his father’s name Abdul Waheed.

Spilling the beans on the same he said, “For a few days, everyone was confused over the name. Some suggested Wasim as my Abbas’ name is Abdul Waheed and they felt that my name should also start with ‘W’.”He adds, “Later, Abba took me to Ajmer Sharif Dargah and kept my name Mohsin, since my Ammi is Mehzabin, so he felt that my name should start with ‘M’. Mohsin is an Arabic word from the Quran sharif which means ‘the one who helps’, derived from the verse ‘Allah hu yu hibbul Muhsinin’, it means Allah loves the one who helps.”
