The countdown has begun, and as we get closer to the premiere date of Prime Video’s upcoming original series, Call Me Bae, Karan Johar and the series’ lead actor, Ananya Panday are here to tell you all about Ananya’s OTT streaming debut! In the whimsically yet fun OTT video released today, Karan dramatically introduces the intriguing concept of the Prime Video series as Ananya prepares for lift-off in her Prime-star launch vessel!
The video takes a dig at Ananya’s character of Bae, and features a beaming Ananya as she discusses her character with Karan. Excited about not playing the bougie princess that she always is, Ananya is looking forward to Bae’s ‘regular person struggle’ – just a former South Delhi heiress, hustling and bustling in the city of dreams – Mumbai!

The series is written by Ishita Moitra, Samina Motlekar, and Rohit Nair, and directed by Collin D’Cunha.
