Since the time 'Salaam-E-Ishq' came on floors, it was believed that Perizaad Zorabian has a role to play in the film. It was announced that she would be paired opposite Sohail Khan and together they would be playing one of the couples of the film.

With the release of the film around a couple of months away, the news has come in that it is Isha Kopikar and not Perizaad who plays Sohail's wife in the film.

Also, the characterization of both Sohail and Isha has changed a bit too. While earlier Sohail and Perizaad were supposed to play a Parsi couple, now Sohail and Isha would be shown as a lower middle class Hindu couple belonging to a small town in North India.
