CID, a cop drama action TV series, has become a hot topic of discussion among its viewers as actor Parth Samthaan confirmed that he will replace Shivaji Satam’s character, ACP Pradyuman. In a recent episode of the show, the character of ACP Pradyuman was killed by Barbosa, who is the leader of the nefarious Eye Gang. The show might introduce a new character, ACP Ayushman.
Viewers’ Reactions over Replacement
The reports about Shivaji’s replacement have flooded the internet with fans’ different viewpoints. One user wrote on X, “I think it’s just a cameo. ACP Pradyuman will be back. No ACP Pradyuman, no CID.” “What? Nah, no way this is true. Like seriously, why would he be the ACP when senior officers like Abhijeet and Daya are there,” asked an X user. Another person says, “Why can’t they just promote Abhijeet?”
Fans of Shivaji Satam say, “Parth Samthaan is very young for this role, and no one can beat our iconic and legendary character, ACP Pradhyuman. CID will be remembered for ACP Pradhyuman. Without ACP Pradhyuman, this show is nothing. He is the backbone of this show.”
“CID is all about ACP Pradhyuman, just like Bahubali is all about Prabhas…it should be either with Shivaji Satam or CID will be a super flop like Transporter 4. Nobody can match #Shivaji Satam,” another fan commented.
Parth’s Fans’ excitement
On the other hand, a high level of excitement can be seen among the followers of Parth Samthaan. One person says, “He is back where he belongs— on our screens, stealing hearts and commanding respect. ACP Ayushmaan is the role, but Parth Samthaan’s magic is what makes it unforgettable.” The second user mentioned,” Parth Samthaan will bring calm intensity and quiet power to ACP Ayushmaan. This role will be one of his most defining performances.” Another person tweeted, “The aura, the elegance, the looks, the talent, he is sheer perfection. Parth Samthaan as ACP Ayushmaan? He is redefining the cop genre with class, charisma, and command!”
Parth Samthaan’s Reaction
While talking to Saas Bahu Aur Betiyaan, Paarth reveals his joining the CID show. “It’s actually a very big responsibility to fill in such shoes, such humongous shoes of ACP Pradyuman since I’m replacing him as ACP Ayushmann. It’s a new character, a new story. We will take the story forward with new thrill and suspense, ” the actor said.
