The pug, whose screen name is Fakhruddin, will now be called Fakhru.
Says a source, "With self-proclaimed social activists, animal welfare committees and moral crusaders who suddenly turn hyper-active before the release and make a mountain out of a mole-hill, the production house has chosen to play safe and change the pug's name to avoid offending any community or political party."
Fakhru, who plays Riteish Deshmukh's friend, has been given a rather suggestive name thanks to his strong breeding capabilities!
