Answer: Since, it has been marked duplicate I'm editing to post the answer here as well.

<?php 
if(file_exists($target_file))
{
    $fileExt = explode('.',$target_file);
    $fileActualExt = ".".strtolower(end($fileExt));
    rename($target_file,str_replace($fileActualExt,("1".$fileActualExt),$target_file));
    echo $target_file;
}
?>
