Much awaited trailer of Prateik starrer 'Issaq' has been released. This original Indian adaptation of William Shakespeare's iconic love story Romeo & Juliet is directed by Manish Tiwary.
While Prateik has been making news, the leading lady of the film was kept under wraps all these days. Amyra Dastur, who raced ahead of nearly 400 girls in audition, makes her Bollywood debut with this action-filled drama.
Set against the backdrop of Banaras, the story begins by showcasing the violence unleashed by sand mafia controlled by urban elite and equally violent retaliation by Naxalite armies. The sand mafia is run by two influential Banarasi families, Kashyaps and Mishras, who are at brutal feud with each other. Kashyap has an 18-year old, pretty and innocent daughter Bachchi (Amyra Dastur) from his first wife.
On the other hand, Mishra's son Rahul (Prateik) is a good-looking teenager with predictable interests for a boy of his background - Girls & Guns! Things change when the battle-hardened and pleasure-seeking Rahul and romantic yet head strong Bachchi fall in love. Disregarding the consequences, the young lovers choose go ahead with the dictats of their hearts.
Manish Tiwary's 'Issaq' turns into a commentary on the meaning of love in contemporary India!
The film unfolds on big screens on 26th July 2013.
