Call Me Bae Plot:
'Call Me Bae' focuses on a fashionista, who is disowned by her billionaire family after a scandal. She comes to Mumbai to fend for herself and tries to find her own identity.
Talking about her role in the series, Ananya said in a statement, "From the get go, I knew Call Me Bae was a project I wanted to be a part of. Even without having heard the script I knew this was going to be something special. As an actor, it is always exciting and rewarding to play a multi-layered character like Bae. There’s more to Bae than what meets the eye and that is what makes her journey compelling and intriguing. Despite the challenges, she remains true to herself, retaining her innocence and zest for life. This authenticity is what drew me to the role."
She added, "This is my first long format original series and I couldn’t have asked for a better director than Collin or a more supportive cast. I am thrilled to be collaborating with Prime Video and Dharmatic Entertainment for the series and I’m looking forward to introducing Bae to audiences worldwide from September 6.”
Producer Karan Johar said, "While there have been many stories that follow the rags-to-riches trope, Call Me Bae offers a fresh twist by turning the genre on its head. It centers on a young woman from a privileged background, where extravagance was a birthright, who, due to unforeseen circumstances, must now navigate life on her own and hustle and reinvent herself in the bustling city of Mumbai."
'Call Me Bae' will also be available in the dubbed version of Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada alongside the original Hindi language.
