The accompanying post on Instagram, captioned “Here’s a ‘Bae’ approved track you shouldn’t miss. #VekhSohneyaa out now!” invited fans to dive into the upbeat and engaging world of the series.
“Vekh Sohneyaa” is the debut OTT project for the musical duo Charan and Bombay the Artist, who composed, wrote, and performed the track. The song, produced by Dishant, aims to capture the essence of Bae’s emotional journey through its lively and soulful beats.

It’s been on repeat, and I’m thrilled with how it captures the spirit of the series,” Panday said. Her character Bella’s transition from a privileged life in Delhi to navigating the streets of Mumbai adds depth to the song’s narrative.
