The trailer for Aryan Khan’s highly anticipated ' The Ba***ds of Bollywood’ just dropped, and fans are completely loving it. The seven-part series follows Aasmaan Singh (Lakshya), an ambitious newcomer with big dreams. With his loyal best friend Parvaiz (Raghav Juyal), sharp-tongued manager Sanya (Anya Singh), and his supportive family by his side Aasmaan steps into Bollywood. The show will show the dark and the light side of Bollywood and the makers have taken anecdotes from real life incidents
While the 3-minute 28-second trailer is sure to keep you hooked, what had our attention were the funny one liners, including a take on Priyanka Chopra's 2025 interview. Wondering what we are talking about? Read on!
In the trailer, there is a scene between Aamir Khan and Aasmaan (played by Lakshya), where the actor asks Aasmaan Singh to choose between idli and vada pav. The way Aamir's character dismisses Lakshya after he picks vada pav, coupled with his classic smirk, is pure comedy gold.
While this amusing exchange has netizens in stitches, there’s another reason why the scene is making waves. Does this scene remind you of the viral Priyanka Chopra interview where she chose hot dog over vada pav?
In the interview, when asked to choose between vada pav and a hot dog, Priyanka chose the latter, leading to widespread social media debates and memes.
During the promotion of ‘Heads of State’, Priyanka Chopra had a Q&A session with an American journalist who asked her to make a choice between some of her favourite street foods.
When asked to pick between empanadas and samosas, the actor said, "Depends on the mood". Between enchiladas and chicken tikka masala, Priyanka Chopra gave a safe answer, "Both".
And, given a choice between hot dog and vada pav, the actor said, "I love vada pav, but hot dog is my weakness."
Soon, the video went viral and many questioned why she would not choose vada pav!
Aamir Khan’s 'Ba***ds of Bollywood' Scene: A Playful Nod?
Now, fast forward to Ba*ds of Bollywood, where Aamir Khan’s character seemingly pulls a very similar stunt. Aamir’s quirky question—vada pav or idli—seems harmless enough, but it’s hard not to notice the parallel.
So, what do you think, is this a subtle take on the PeeCee video?
The show has many cameos, including Ranveer Singh, Sara Ali Khan, SS Rajamouli, Badshah, Disha Patani, and more are also expected. The Ba***ds of Bollywood will premiere on Netflix on 18 September.
The music is in collaboration with T-Series. Shashwat Sachdev composed the album, with guest composers Anirudh Ravichander and Ujwal Gupta.
