Ananya Panday Addresses Comparisons Of Call Me Bae With 2 Broke Girls And Emily in Paris: 'The Sasta Version...'

'Call Me Bae', starring Ananya Panday, was compared to ‘Two Broke Girls’, ‘Emily in Paris’, and 'Schitt's Creek'.

After the release of the trailer of 'Call Me Bae', starring Ananya Panday, the internet drew parallels with different shows. Comparisons were made on social media to ‘Two Broke Girls’, starring Kat Dennings and Beth Behrs, as well as Netflix's ‘Emily in Paris’, starring Lily Collins and 'Schitt's Creek'.

Ananya Panday on Call Me Bae's comparisons

However, Ananya Panday urges viewers to watch the show before commenting. She addressed the comparisons during an interview with News18 Showsha. 

“Just because this is the genre or the theme of the show, doesn’t mean it is the copy of something else. It’s like, if there’s a romcom that’s already been made, it doesn’t make it a copy. It is following a similar format or genre. It’s a template,” Ananya Panday said.

Ananya added, “I don’t like the fact that when something is made in Hollywood and then it’s made in India, people call it the sasta version of that. Why can’t you be proud of the content that is coming from your own country? You sit and watch these shows for hours. But it is coming from your own country… Without watching it, don’t judge it is what I would say.”

Speaking of her upcoming show, the actor said that its standout feature is the characters. “Even though the template maybe chick-flick or that format, all the characters of the show are so wonderfully unique,” she said.
