Today, August 20, 2024, the trailer of the upcoming web series Call Me Bae was unveiled across social media platforms.

Bae arrives in Mumbai and gets a job as a journalist. Vir Das and Varun Sood are part of her journey as she tries to rediscover herself. The trailer also contains a hilarious reference to Siddhant Chaturvedi.
In one scene, Ananya is seen telling a security guard, “Majburiyon se main guzar rahi hun, bhaiya (I’m the one who is struggling, brother),” to which he replies, “Aapki majburi jahan shuru hoti hai, wahan tak pahunchna hi toh humara sapna hai (Your struggle is what our dreams are made of).”
Ananya says to him, “Where have I heard that one before?” For the uninitiated, Siddhant Chaturvedi made a similar comment about Ananya's struggle in an old appearance on Rajeev Masand's newcomer roundtable, where she was also present. While talking about nepotism, the actress said, "It isn't as easy as everyone says it is. Everyone has their own journey."
Siddhant then stated, "The difference is jahaan humare sapne poore hote hain, wahi inka struggle shuru hota hai (their struggle begins where our dreams are fulfilled)." It had gone extremely viral on the internet.
