For the purpose of avoiding any confusion in upcoming flick ' Issaq ', the director Manish Tiwari has come up with an idea to change the name. The female lead in the movie ' Issaq ' would be named as Amyra Dastur in stead of Amy. Prateik Babbar will be seen in the lead role of this film. The reason behind changing the name is to evade any vagueness with Prateik's former girlfriend, Amy.
' Issaq ' will be adaptation of the 'Romeo and Juliet' by Shakespeare. In this movie, Prateik, who is 26 years old, would be romancing Amyra, a 16-year old girl. As the director does not intend to give rise to any false rumours of Prateik and Amy, he changed the name of the actress in the movie. Tiwari had taken this decision along with the consent of everyone involved in the project.
Earlier, the British actress Amy Jackson was the love interest of Prateik Babbar in real life. The duo started dating each other after their film ' Ek Deewana Tha '.
