“House hunting ain’t as easy in Bombay, but this Bae is ready now!”
Apoorva aka the Rebel Kid has collaborated with Bollywood actress Ananya Panday to promote the latter’s upcoming series, Call Me Bae by helping her with house-hunting.
The video opens with the content creator and actress in an auto, with Ananya complaining that she has not been able to find a house in Mumbai. After hearing her lengthy list of requirements, Apoorva decides to give her a raincheck on what to expect from the city along with a few helpful but humorous pointers.
Apoorva’s “advice” can be narrowed down to a few simple instructions, including:
- Pray to God, because finding a house in this economy is impossible.
- Having great broker contacts
- Lie, lie and lie
- Always negotiate the rent.
- Never forget these points.
The video concludes with Ananya confirming that she is ready to find a house in Mumbai.
