CID, the legendary crime series, made a triumphant return in 2024 with Season 2, bringing back fan-favorite characters. However, recent emotional twists in CID 2 have surprised viewers, especially with heartfelt farewells and dramatic turns in the storyline.CID, the iconic crime investigation series that defined a generation of television in India, returned in 2024 with its much-awaited second season. After running for two decades and going off-air in 2018, the beloved characters—ACP Pradyuman, Daya, Abhijeet, Dr. Salunke—made a grand comeback, reigniting nostalgia among its loyal fans. But recent developments on CID 2 have stirred emotions once again.
Parth Samthaan, who entered the show as ACP Ayushmaan following a shocking storyline that saw the supposed death of ACP Pradyuman (played by Shivaji Satam), initially received a mixed response. Fans were wary of anyone replacing the legendary character. However, it was soon revealed that ACP Ayushmaan wasn’t replacing Pradyuman, but rather playing a key role in his return. Parth’s nuanced portrayal and strong screen presence won over viewers, many of whom praised his contribution to the show despite his limited screen time.
Now, Parth has wrapped up his journey on CID 2, and the cast and crew made sure to bid him a memorable farewell. A heartfelt celebration took place on the sets, attended by Shivaji Satam, Hrishikesh Pandey, Aditya Srivastava, and others. The highlight of the farewell was a specially designed CID-themed cake that reflected Parth’s contribution to the show. Photos and videos from the party have gone viral, with fans pouring in their love and expressing how deeply they will miss ACP Ayushmaan.
One emotional fan wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “Tonight marks the farewell of #ParthSamthaan as ACP Ayushmaan in #CID2.. Even with limited episodes, he left a mark with his powerful screen presence and unmatched versatility. This role hit different—intense, sharp, and unforgettable. We’ll miss you, Parth.”
Another viewer added, “ACP Ayushmaan you’ll be missed not just by #CID2 but also by OG #CID viewers!! #ParthSamthaan.”
As fans bid adieu to Parth’s character, the show is already gearing up for new surprises. Inspector Shreya, played by Janvi Chheda, has returned to the series with a drastically altered storyline. Her comeback has sparked curiosity, and audiences are eagerly waiting to see how her arc unfolds.
With nostalgia, new twists, and emotional goodbyes, CID 2 continues to strike the right chord with fans.
