Llámame Bae

I watched it along with my girlfriend expecting nothing but to my surprise it was a very fresh and entertaining watch. Very Gen-Z kind of show but there is something for my generation as well. The casting is very on point and humour is very subtle. Ananya Pandey was made to play this role. Vir Das is playing an entirely opposite character to his real self but still slays the role. Naman Arora once again does a good supporting cameo kind of role.

I think reviews are so low because people are reviewing without even watching it under the assumption that this is yet another show made just for casting nepo kids. I'd highly recommend to watch it once.

Binge watched the entire show in one go. Truly marvelous acting. Don't go by the other reviews and watch with an open mind. Plots might seem obvious at some points but the stellar acting covers it up.

People say it's a rip off of Emily in Paris but that's just not true. It has the Bollywood in it which separates it apart.

The characters are well developed, the relationships are well developed. The cinematography also was magnificent. I'm glad I gave this show a chance and I feel everyone should as well if you are looking for a good chick flick.

The comedy at some point could be better but other than that the show has everything. I thought this would be a one season thing but the END! Can't wait for season two now!

Just finished and it is absolutely, 100% a welcome change !!

Sadly, this nepotism tag / social media fad ruins the fun even before it starts. No wonder this was a mere 4.5 stars to begin with but climbing now.

Nepotism is there .. not denying the obvious but in movie industry where you bet you own money on how the movie would do .. isn't it just as simple as inheriting a family business where there could be better people who can lead the business ??

I think so. You can choose to disagree and it's okay.

Anyway .. not a masterpiece but 100% a one time watch A lot of cringy stuff but a lot of worthy ones .. somewhere here or there a bit of poorly written script but definitely more than a few good moments .. backed by solid performances in their capacity.

And can you believe it .. not a single "gaali" .. like what !!! .. how can you even :)

All in all .. nothing short of a 7 .. all day, every day :)

**NEPOTISM, NEPOTISM, NEPOTISM - but not always, guys!**

First, you should go and watch the show. Don't fall for the idea that it's high-class drama only for high-class society. Anyone can watch it in one go.

The storyline is amazing! It's about a girl from an elite background who gets kicked out of her luxurious life and rises to become a top-notch journalist.

The comedy timing was spot on.

Ananya Pandey-I've always liked her and her acting, except in *Hum Kho Gaye Kahan*. This is her best OTT series with mind-blowing performances by everyone.

Neel's character may feel underdeveloped, but Gurfateh Pirzada is a good actor. Maybe the producers just didn't have much for him in this.

Vir Das, as usual, was great.

Niharika Dutt is absolutely lovable.

Mini Mathur is such a great actress-please give her more screen time!

Muskan Jafferi as Saira was fantastic. Without her, it would be impossible to enjoy this series as much.

Finally, I found Varun Sood's journey wonderful. Loved him in this.

Varun Arora, the upcoming comedy sensation, had limited screen time, but you'll love him in every scene.

Every small character, from the chef in the house to the police station actors, was great.

Go and watch! It's a must-watch drama-comedy.
