The trailer of Call My Agent: Bollywood is damn good and there are many scenes in it that would make you laugh out loud. It stars Aahana Kumra, Ayush Mehra, Rajat Kapoor, and Soni Razdan in the lead roles, and celebs like Farah Khan, Ali Fazal, Richa Chadha, Lara Dutta, Jackie Shroff, and Dia Mirza will be seen in cameos.

Call My Agent: Bollywood is the Indian adaptation of the French series Dix Pour Cent. The Indian adaptation is directed by Shaad Ali who has earlier helmed films like Saathiya, Bunty Aur Babli, Ok Jaanu and others.

According to PTI, Ali in a statement said, “It was a huge responsibility to be mindful of the original screenplay that has been such a success and yet has my own stamp on the adaptation. Each component of this show has been thought through with intricacy - right from the casting to the cameos.”

"Each of us, included in this project, have poured their heart and soul into it and I cannot wait to show the audiences the satirical world of showbiz through my lens. Rajat, Ayush, Aahana, and Soni share such brilliant chemistry with each other that shooting with them has been a riot," the director added.
