Ananya Panday's Call Me Bae received a mixed response after its arrival on Amazon Prime Video. Despite that, it has managed to grab a spot among the top 10 trending shows in several countries. Considering this, the makers decided to bring a new season.

The news was revealed by the head of Amazon Originals, Nikhil Madhok. Furthermore, producer Karan Johar said in a statement that Season 1 was a "game-changer" for them and the entire team is excited to "delve deeper into the characters and their stories."
Now the question that arises after this announcement is why the show has been renewed. Did we need a second season? Ananya Panday is yet to establish herself as a flawless actress. If we ignore Pati, Patni aur Woh, and Dreamgirl 2, her films have hardly worked at the box office.
