Call Me Bae director Collin D’Cunha on Ananya Panday, “She is one of the most hardworking actors I have ever worked with” : Bollywood News

To navigate multiple tracks and episodes and such a vast cast in Call Me Bae couldn’t be easy for director Collin D’Cunha. He admitted as such saying, “The long format series are challenging in their own way! But it’s extremely gratifying as a director to be able to explore multiple tracks and work with an ensemble cast which brings the characters to life. Here I have to acknowledge my HOD’s for making this a smooth ride, with very few hiccups as all of us were working together towards a collective creative goal. Thanks to our casting director, Panchami Ghavri, we were able go through multiple rounds of auditions. I was always sure that I wanted every character to be distinct from the other. For example after we cast Agastya (Vihaan Samat), I realised I wanted Neel (Gurfateh Pirzada) to be polar opposite in all way. So yeah, even if they were not my first choice, they were all definitely my best!”

Collin was sure Ananya Pandey could pull off the difficult role. “I was very confident that she will be able to pull off this character. She is one of the most hardworking actors I have ever worked with. She didn’t know just her dialogues; she knew the entire script verbatim. She’s taken on the role of Bae and delivered more than what I could’ve imagined. This character’s arc is what actually drew me into the show. We live in a social media age, where people go viral overnight. But what makes Bae interesting is that she uses her fame for empowerment,” he said.

The Bae Journey has been illuminating for Colin. “It’s been an extremely fulfilling journey to work with very driven, likeminded creative people like my writers Ishita Moitra, Samina Motlekar, Rohit Nair and Somen Mishra,” he said. “I feel very lucky to be able to debut with a series that’s headlined by Ananya Panday and received the full support of Karan Johar and Apoorva Mehta and team Amazon. It’s truly a ‘pinch me’ moment. We’re all hoping that this season is liked and is a success! And I’m very interested to see where Bae’s journey takes her next. I have a series that I have co-directed, produced by Dharmatic and Amazon Prime. Excited for it to come out sometime next year.”
