Prateik Babbar's co-star in Issaq changes her name to avoid controversy
New Delhi:
Director Manish Tiwary has changed the name of the lead actress in his movie Issaq from Amy to Amyra Dastur in order to avoid any confusion with the actor's ex-girlfriend.
Amyra, 16, will be romancing Prateik Babbar, 26, in the movie adaptation of Shakespeare's Romeo And Juliet.
Prateik Babbar was dating British actress Amy Jackson and Manish Tiwary did not want people to create false rumours about the lead pair of his movie.
"It was a decision that everybody took together to make sure there is no confusion between the two girls and to avoid any link up stories since Prateik and Amy's relation has been spoken about so much," Manish Tiwary said in a statement.
Prateik Babbar and Amy started dating each other after working together in Ekk Deewana Tha, but later called it quits.
