Amy Jackson and Prateik
Ekk Deewana Tha is Gautham Menon’s Hindi remake of his hit Tamil film Vinnaithaandi Varuvaaya. Prateik Babbar and Amy Jackson are doing the lead pair in Ekk Deewana Tha. Prateik Babbar plays Sachin — the quintessential Maharashtrian middle-class romantic. He watches films, mooches off his older buddy Manu Rishi. Amy Jackson plays Jessie, the ‘docile’ middle-class girl who dutifully sets off for office each morning with her laptop bag and immaculately draped sarees. Prateik’s career hasn’t really taken off so he spends his days planning on how he can bump into Jessie. The ‘accidental’ meetings which happened at bus stops through the ’70s and ’80s now happen at the closest Mcdonalds.
Prateik Babbar does accept that he has feelings for Amy. “I have a crush on her and she knows it,” he smiles. While Prateik and Amy haven’t officially spoken about it, rumour mills are working overtime about their alleged relationship. All Prateik says is, “When you shoot for a romantic film for almost six months, you have no choice but to have chemistry (with your co-star). These kind of link-ups are bound to happen.”
We are hoping to seeing some of this awesome chemistey between Prateik Babbar and Amy Jackson in Ekk Deewana Tha while wishing the young couple all the best!
