Ananya Panday’s reel wedding moment mirrors Kiara Advani’s iconic gesture.
Ananya Panday copies Kiara Advani’s wedding moment in Call Me Bae, sparking laughs. Fans spot many real-life wedding references. Watch the viral scene!
The much-anticipated series Call Me Bae premiered today, September 6, on Amazon Prime Video, offering a clever mix of humour and real-life references. The show, starring Ananya Panday as Bella Rajwansh, doesn’t hold back in poking fun at pop culture, particularly lavish celebrity weddings.
Within the first 15 minutes of the opening episode, Bella is shown tying the knot with Agastya Chowdhary (Vihaan Samat) in an opulent ceremony reminiscent of recent star-studded weddings. Set in Lake Como, Italy, their wedding mirrors Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone’s much-talked-about nuptials.
However, the highlight for many viewers was a sweet recreation of Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani’s viral wedding moment. Just like the beloved real-life couple, Bella and Agastya fold their hands and gaze into each other’s eyes, drawing instant parallels. The scene has quickly gone viral, with fans celebrating the nod to Kiara’s wedding gesture.
As the show continues, it throws in more hilarious references, with Bella narrating a scenario where drones trying to capture the wedding were exploded. This seems to be a cheeky dig at reports from Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal’s wedding, where drones were reportedly targeted to protect the couple’s privacy.
Another viral wedding trope that found its way into Call Me Bae is the couple laughing with the priest during their vows. Fans on social media have long joked that celebrity wedding priests must crack jokes during the ceremony, and the show taps into this humor perfectly.
The Ambani family also gets a nod. Five years ago, a video of Akash Ambani winking at his wife Shloka while suggesting they start a family went viral. The show recreates this iconic moment, with Agastya giving a playful wink at Bella that’s sure to leave viewers grinning.
With references to everything from exotic destinations like Lakshadweep and Maldives to Khan Market Gang, Call Me Bae sets the tone right from the start. These humorous takes and clever wedding-inspired moments promise to keep fans hooked throughout the series.
