Many fans online questioned her appearance with Shubhankar Mishra, wondering aloud if she was there to support Chahal or if the sighting meant something more. Adding intrigue, a video resurfaced online showing Mahvash at Chahal's hotel just days before the match. Attempting to go incognito in a hoodie and face mask, she was seen rushing toward an elevator after being recognised. While the hotel's location remains undisclosed, she was reportedly there specifically to visit the star cricketer.

He is so available for his people, so I would steal his nature,' she said. When asked what she would steal from him, she added: 'His niceness and how humble he is.'
