Parth's entry in CID 2 was met with mixed reactions initially. Fans were skeptical and misunderstood that he would be replacing the beloved ACP Pradyuman, played by
Shivaji Satam
.
However, those concerns faded when it became clear that ACP Ayushman was introduced to assist the legendary officer, not replace him. Over time, Parth won over the audience with his performance and charm.
Despite the growing admiration, Parth had earlier shared that his appearance in the show was temporary. With his final episode now completed, the cast and crew gathered to give him a warm farewell. The farewell bash included a heartfelt cake-cutting ceremony attended by Shivaji Satam, Hrishikesh Pandey, Aditya Srivastava, and others.

The Telangana government plans to develop Hyderabad as the capital of the Indian cinema industry. Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka, who is the chairman of the Ministerial Sub-Committee on film industry development, on Tuesday directed the Information Department Commissioner and Film Development Corporation officials to prepare a Detailed Project Report (DPR) to develop Hyderabad as the capital of Indian cinema. A meeting of the Ministerial Sub-Committee on the comprehensive development of the film industry was held on Tuesday. The meeting, attended by Ministers and Sub-Committee members Komatireddy Venkat Reddy and D. Sridhar Babu, discussed multiple key issues. The Deputy CM stated that the government's goal is to develop Hyderabad into a film city that attracts cinema professionals from across India and abroad.
