Ananya Panday’s rise from her debut in Student of the Year 2 to her latest project, CTRL, has been nothing short of remarkable. With her popularity on a steady incline, she has captured the hearts of many in the entertainment industry. Earlier this year, she made her mark in the world of OTT with Collin D’Cunha’s delightful comedy-drama series, Call Me Bae, leaving a lasting impression on viewers. One such viewer was the multi-talented Indian artist, Suchitra Krishnamoorthi, who, despite initial reservations about the show’s flashy nature, found herself captivated by Panday’s performance.
In a heartfelt message shared on social media, Krishnamoorthi praised Ananya Panday and urged her followers not to be deceived by her stunning appearance and background, emphasizing that she is a force to be reckoned with in the industry. Reflecting on her experience watching Call Me Bae, Krishnamoorthi expressed, “Whoa! I must confess I think it’s the most fun show I’ve seen this year. Warm. Real. Relatable. Emotional. Today. Topical & oh so so glamorous and fabulous. #ananyapandey is a serious talent. Let not her porcelain doll looks & pedigree fool you into thinking otherwise. This bae is here to stay.” The exchange of appreciation between the two actresses on Instagram stories further solidified the bond created by Panday’s stellar performance.
Discussing her role in the series, Panday revealed that it posed a significant challenge for her as it marked her first foray into leading a TV series. Penned by a talented team including Ishita Moitra, Samina Motlekar, and Rohit Nair, and produced by the renowned Karan Johar’s Dharmatic Entertainment, Call Me Bae boasts a stellar cast including Vir Das, Gurfateh Pirzada, Varun Sood, and many more.

With talks of a second season already circulating within the industry, it’s clear that Ananya Panday’s star is only on the rise, leaving a lasting impact on all who have the pleasure of watching her talents unfold on screen.
