Now, Prateik Babbar has opened up on his breakup with Amy Jackson. He also revealed that his ‘bad phase’ began after his split. In a new episode of Mashable’s The Bombay Journey, the Dum Maro Dum actor 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).”
