Actually - Perl will let you do
our $FH = 'path';
open FH or die...; # open FH, '<', $FH
Doesn't work with 'my' variables, though.

And now you can do:
`mv $FH /home/pravesh`;
The whole thing would be better written:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use File::Copy;
my $path = 'somefile';
open FH, $path or die "open: $path: $!";
...
move $path, '/home/pravesh'
or die "move: $path => /home/pravesh: $!"
