While downloading a file,in command-line, we have WGET which shows us the progress of the download. Similarly, is there any command which gives us visual status of the process(move).

rsync: Rsync moves files with --remove-source-files and has a -P switch for a progress bar. So if you have rsync installed, you could use a simple alias in your shells dotfile:

alias mv='rsync -aP --remove-source-files'

... although rsync might be a bit slower.
