Mumbai (Maharashtra) (India), August 18 (ANI): The makers of the much-awaited comedy series ‘Call Me Bae’ starring Ananya Panday in the lead role, are all set to unveil the trailer.

‘Call Me Bae’ trailer to be revealed on August 20.

They shared the poster and wrote, “All the drama, sass and fa-Bae-ulousness is about to unfold in just 2 days! CallMeBaeOnPrime, Sept 6.” As soon as the announcement was made, fans and industry members took to the comments section to react.

Shanaya Kapoor dropped emojis.

Varun Sood commented, “Main toh kaafi BAE-tab hu!!!!” One of the users wrote, “Can’t wait.” Ananya also took to Instagram story and wrote, “CallMeBae. Trailer out on August 20.” On Wednesday, the makers dropped a new promotional video featuring Ananya and producer Karan Johar.

In the clip, Ananya is seen sitting in a spaceship as Karan Johar gives everyone instructions. He asks about her ‘lead character energy’, ‘glamour quotient’ and ‘bank balance’. Ananya interrupts him and asks what he is doing.

Karan said that he was preparing for her launch and added a dash of humour by saying, “Hum ek baar jeete hain, ek baar marte hain, shaadi bhi ek hi baar hoti hai, par launch to baar baar ho sakta hai na.” In a light-hearted version, the video humorously highlights Ananya’s role as Bae. The video shows a beaming Ananya as she discusses her character with Karan.

Excited that she doesn’t have to play the bougie princess that she always is, Ananya is looking forward to Bae’s ‘regular person struggle’ – just a former heiress from South Delhi, who hustles and bustles in the city of dreams – Mumbai! She is seen lively and passionate as she discusses her new role with Karan. Often typecast as a high-class princess, Ananya is excited about the change of character this time around. She is slowly inching towards portraying Bae – a once wealthy heiress from South Delhi, who now has to deal with the daily hustle and bustle in Mumbai.

Ananya Panday leads the cast as Bella Bae Chowdhary, and the series also features actors Vir Das, Gurfateh Pirzada, Varun Sood, Vihaan Samat, Muskkaan Jaferi, Niharika Lyra Dutt, Lisa Mishra and Mini Mathur.

The series is produced by Dharmatic Entertainment and has Karan Johar, Apoorva Mehta and Somen Mishra as executive producers. It stars Ananya Panday, who is making her OTT debut. The series is written by Ishita Moitra, Samina Motlekar and Rohit Nair and directed by Collin D’Cunha.

‘Call Me Bae’ is expected to release on Prime Video on September 6. (ANI)
