The excitement is building for the release of the much-anticipated series Call Me Bae, marking Ananya Panday’s debut in the world of web series. The show features a stellar cast, including Vir Das and Varun Sood, among others. The recently released trailer offers a sneak peek into the story, showcasing Ananya’s character, Bae, as she navigates life in Mumbai. There’s also a clever nod to Siddhant Chaturvedi in the mix.
On August 20, 2024, the Call Me Bae trailer was launched across social media, introducing viewers to Ananya’s character, Bae—a woman born into immense wealth and luxury. However, her privileged life takes a sudden turn, forcing her to start over from scratch.
As Bae arrives in Mumbai, she lands a job as a journalist, with Vir Das and Varun Sood playing key roles in her journey of self-discovery. The trailer also features a humorous reference to Siddhant Chaturvedi. In one scene, Ananya’s character tells a security guard, “Majburiyon se main guzar rahi hun, bhaiya (I’m going through hardships, brother),” to which he responds, “Aapki majburi jahan shuru hoti hai, wahan tak pahunchna hi toh humara sapna hai (Your hardships are what we aspire to reach).”
Ananya then quips, “Where have I heard that before?” This is a playful callback to a viral moment involving Siddhant Chaturvedi, who once said in an interview, “Jahaan humare sapne poore hote hain, wahi inka struggle shuru hota hai (their struggle begins where our dreams come true).” This line had become a sensation online, making the trailer’s reference even more impactful.
