Prateik Babbar says breakup with Amy Jackson started a ‘dark phase’ for him

Actor Prateik Babbar has talked about his breakup with Amy Jackson, whom he worked with in 2011 film, Ekk Deewana Tha. They dated each other in 2012 and separated soon after. In a new interview, Prateik has talked about how the breakup did to him and began a dark phase in his life.

Talking about Ekk Deewana Tha and what it meant for him, Prateik said, “It was a good film. But then I fell in love that woman (Amy) and it just went haywire. And that just… how do I put this in simplest way… I think the bad phase began when I experienced heartbreak there. Heartbreak at 25 years old just hits different. Phir main gayab hogaya (Then I completely disappeared).”

In 2012, Prateik admitted in an interview with HT that the two were indeed dating, “I am usually shy, but Amy brings out the best in me. She is the most beautiful girl in the world. Apart from being a gorgeous diva, she’s also very simple at heart,” he said. “It was mutual. Our courtship can be simply summed up as, ‘Tab Ek deewana tha, aur ab ek deewani hai’.”
