Ananya Panday on ‘Call Me Bae’: A Masala Mix of All My Favorite Chick-Flicks

Hello doston! Khabree Kiran here, ready to spill some Bollywood chai! Grab your popcorn, because today we’re diving into Ananya Panday’s latest OTT venture, "Call Me Bae". Buckle up, kyunki maza aane wala hai! 😎

Ananya Panday’s OTT Debut: "Call Me Bae"

So, apni Ananya Panday is stepping into the OTT world with "Call Me Bae". Inspired by iconic women-led comedies like "Clueless" and "Aisha", Ananya’s new show promises to be a masala mix of all chick-flicks she binged while growing up. Think Alicia Silverstone meets Sonam Kapoor, with a dash of Kareena Kapoor’s legendary Poo from "Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham…"! Bae aka Bella Chowdhary, gets a reality check as she falls from riches to rags. Sounds juicy, right? 🍿

Trailer Launch Shenanigans

At the trailer launch, Ananya spilled the beans about her love for chick-flicks and her obsession with Poo. “I literally dressed up as Poo two years ago,” she confessed. Kya baat hai, Ananya! Full filmi! She even has Poo’s quotes pinned to her mirror. Talk about dedication!

The show, directed by Collin D’Cunha and brainchild of Ishita Moitra, follows Bae as she navigates life after being disowned by her family. From living it up in Delhi to becoming a journalist in Mumbai, Bae’s journey is full of twists, unexpected friendships, and, of course, drama! 🎭

Ananya’s Insight on Playing Bae

Ananya, known for "Student of the Year 2", "Gehraiyaan", and "Dream Girl 2", said Bae has been her most fun yet challenging role. “It’s the first time I’m doing a long-format series, which allows you to delve deeper into the characters. With films, you only get a few scenes, but here, you can build a backstory,” she explained. And she didn’t forget to give a shoutout to Karan Johar, Collin D’Cunha, and the entire team. Wah, kya teamwork hai!

That Viral Interview Moment

And here’s the icing on the cake! The show’s trailer ends with a nod to Ananya’s viral moment with Siddhant Chaturvedi. Remember when she equated success in Bollywood with "Koffee with Karan" appearances, and Siddhant’s epic retort, “jahaan humare sapne poore hote hain, wahi inka struggle shuru hota hai”? Well, they’ve owned it up in "Call Me Bae". Ananya quipped, “I said it five years ago. I struggled with this question and now, I’m just focusing on my work. No more struggles, I’m doing fine.” Atta girl, Ananya!

Star-Filled Cast

Joining Ananya are Vir Das, Gurfateh Pirzada, Varun Sood, Vihaan Samat, Muskkaan Jaferi, Niharika Lyra Dutt, Lisa Mishra, and Mini Mathur. With KJo, Apoorva Mehta, and Somen Mishra as exec producers, the show is set to hit Prime Video on September 6. Ready to binge, anyone? 📺

Kiran’s Gyan:
Bollywood lesson of the day, doston: Life in Bollywood is like a chick-flick. You need a mix of drama, fashion, and a bit of Poo’s sass to survive. And remember, kabhi kabhi, owning up to your viral moments can be your biggest flex!
