Ananya Panday recently sparked excitement among fans of the Amazon Prime Video series "Call Me Bae" after sharing a joyful reunion with some of her co-stars. The get-together included Vihaan Samat and Muskaan Jaferi, fueling anticipation for the show's second season.
Panday shared a carousel of candid snapshots on Instagram with the hashtag #BehenCode, celebrating sisterhood and friendship with her "Call Me Bae" crew. The first photo showed Panday in a group hug with Muskaan Jaferi and Niharika Dutt at a restaurant. Other photos captured the larger "Call Me Bae" gang, including Vihaan Samat, enjoying their time together. Close-ups of their dinner spread, including a tablecloth playfully signed by everyone, also featured in the post. Panday captioned the images with a sweet message: "Behens for life #BehenCode".
The reunion comes amidst growing anticipation for the second season of "Call Me Bae." The first season, which premiered on Amazon Prime Video in September 2024, quickly garnered a dedicated following. The show revolves around Bella Chowdhary, also known as Bae, played by Ananya Panday, as she navigates a "riches-to-rags" journey, moving from her comfortable life in Delhi to the bustling city of Mumbai to make a living.
The series, produced by Dharmatic Entertainment and directed by Collin D'Cunha, features a talented ensemble cast, including Vir Das, Gurfateh Pirzada, Varun Sood, Vihaan Samat, Muskkaan Jaferi, Niharika Lyra Dutt, Lisa Mishra, and Mini Mathur.
The series was renewed for a second season shortly after its debut, with Karan Johar, the producer, expressing his excitement. Johar stated that the first season was a "game-changer" and that the team is eager to delve deeper into the characters and their stories. He also expressed his gratitude for the audience's love and appreciation.
Ananya Panday has also spoken about her excitement for the upcoming season. In an Instagram post marking the show's first anniversary, she shared a compilation video and expressed her eagerness to step back into Bae's shoes. She highlighted the positive response to the first season and hinted at the super soon release of the second season.
In an interview with Mid-Day in May 2025, Panday shared that the team would begin shooting for the second season soon. She expressed her belief that "Call Me Bae" offers a refreshing and feel-good alternative to the action-heavy content prevalent in Bollywood. Panday also mentioned that playing Bae was a healing experience for her and expressed her hope that the show would bring comfort, joy, and calm to the audience.
The reunion of Ananya Panday with Vihaan Samat, Muskaan Jaferi, and other cast members has amplified the buzz surrounding "Call Me Bae" Season 2. Fans are eager to see what's next for Bae as she navigates life, love, and career in the vibrant backdrop of Mumbai.
