CID 2: Daya and Shreya's reunion, nostalgic fans say 'makers just used her for TRP...'

Pink Villa4 days ago

CID, India's longest crime show, continues to dazzle its fans with its second installment. CID Season 2 is serving the entertainment quotient at its best with a mix of nostalgia, unexpected twists and turns, and whatnot! The latest development of the show has taken the internet by storm, leaving fans in mixed feelings as Daya and Inspector Shreya reunite.
The reboot version is grabbing the eyeballs of the CID fans, who still reminisce about the romantic angle between Daya and Shreya. The sequence met with mixed reactions on social media. Some are getting nostalgic and thanking the makers for bringing back Inspector Shreya, played by Janvi Chedda. Meanwhile, a significant section of the audience is disappointed, as she was shown for only a few seconds throughout the entire episode.
A social media user wrote, "Absolutely loved Saturday's episode (49). But, honestly very disappointed with yesterday's episode (50). After waiting so long to see Shreya back, she was barely there for even 30 seconds. It felt like the makers just used her for TRP. @sonytv please bring her back properly."
Another commented, "In just 3 mint @janvicg captured whole internet (with cry and heart emojis)." Another user wrote, "her entry brought back so many emotions (with heart emoji)." A X user tweeted, "17 years old me is crying". Another user expressed her feelings, "I still remember the epi wen Shreya got engaged to someone else and how heartbroken Daya was (with two heartbreak emoticons)."
For the unversed, Inspector Shreya entered the CID bureau along with her little daughter. As Shreya approached the office, Daya and the team remained shocked for a few seconds and couldn't believe her arrival. Amid the tense reactions, Daya approached her and started playing with her daughter.
Soon after Shreya's arrival, fans started demanding the comeback of Shradda Musale, who was seen as Sarika in CID and had a romantic arc with Inspector Abhijeet.

Drishyam 3: Mohanlal And Jeethu Joseph Likely To Begin Filming In September 2025

Last Updated: Mohanlal and Jeethu Joseph are reportedly set to start filming Drishyam 3 in September 2025. Malayalam cinema's iconic duo—Mohanlal and director Jeethu Joseph—are ready to bring back the suspense and intrigue of the Drishyam universe. According to a new report by Cinema For You, the third installment of the celebrated thriller franchise is likely to begin production in September 2025, much to the excitement of fans across the country. While speculation had long surrounded their return, the report suggests that Drishyam 3 might finally move ahead—possibly at the cost of delaying their much-anticipated but long-stalled project Ram yet again. With dates aligning and mounting pressure from eager fans, the team seems to be prioritizing the next chapter in Georgekutty's chilling tale of deception and survival. An official confirmation is still awaited, but the buzz has already reignited anticipation among viewers who have followed Georgekutty's journey since the very beginning. For the uninitiated, Drishyam (2013) was a game-changer in Indian cinema. Directed by Jeethu Joseph, the original film followed Georgekutty, a simple cable TV operator, whose life spirals into chaos after a shocking incident involving his family. What followed was a masterclass in suspenseful storytelling, as Georgekutty wove a web of lies to protect his loved ones from law enforcement. The film's gripping narrative, moral ambiguity, and powerful performances struck a chord with audiences, making it a blockbuster and a blueprint for remakes across multiple Indian languages. In 2021, the franchise returned with Drishyam 2: The Resumption, picking up seamlessly from where the first left off. Released directly on Amazon Prime Video due to the pandemic, the sequel was lauded for maintaining the franchise's high standards of storytelling, layered drama, and emotional depth. Mohanlal once again proved why he's considered one of India's finest actors, and Jeethu Joseph's direction was praised for its sophistication and restraint. As the Malayalam original prepares to enter its third and possibly final phase, interestingly, its Bollywood counterpart is also revving up for its next chapter. Actor Ajay Devgn is reportedly set to reprise his role as Vijay Salgaonkar in Drishyam 3, with Abhishek Pathak returning to direct. That film, according to Pinkvilla, will go on floors in August 2025, creating a fascinating parallel between the two cinematic universes. Meanwhile, Mohanlal continues to be one of the busiest stars in the industry. After headlining Thudarum, a hard-hitting crime drama about a father's quest for justice, he is now gearing up for Hridayapoorvam, a feel-good family film helmed by veteran director Sathyan Anthikad and co-starring Malavika Mohanan. His packed slate also includes big-ticket projects like Vrusshabha and MMMN, further cementing his status as a pan-Indian force to reckon with. With Drishyam 3, Mohanlal and Jeethu Joseph have the potential to close the chapter on one of Indian cinema's most iconic franchises with the same finesse and unpredictability that made it a cultural phenomenon in the first place.

After ‘Housefull 5' success, this Punjabi beauty bags another big project, set to star opposite Sunny Deol…; She is…

In the midst of Housefull 5's roaring success, Sonam Bajwa—already riding high with upcoming roles in Baaghi 4 opposite Tiger Shroff and Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat alongside Harshvardhan Rane—drops into a brand-new battlefield. Rumour has it she's set to star in the much-anticipated Border 2, sharing intense emotional terrain with Diljit Dosanjh amid the chaos of conflict. According to a Pinkvilla source, Bajwa's character is no mere cameo; she's the emotional core of the sequel, her arc reflecting strength, sacrifice, and chemistry that lights up the screen alongside Diljit's portrayal. The war isn't just external—it's fought in the heart. And her entrée is timed to perfection: cameras roll from late June through mid-August in Pune, as Sunny Deol, Varun Dhawan, Diljit Dosanjh, Ahan Shetty, and now Bajwa bring Border 2 to life under Anurag Singh's lens. The hunt for Varun's heroine, however, continues. While makers have kept her involvement unconfirmed, the whispers carry weight—after all, Bajwa and Diljit share a rich chemistry, honed across Punjabi hits like Hounsla Rakh, Super Singh, Sardar Ji (and its sequel), Shada and Rana Cha Dhanna. Directed by Kesari's Anurag Singh and backed by JP and Nidhi Dutta alongside T‑Series, Border 2 is slated to hit theaters on Republic Day 2026—a prime release slot channelling the patriotic thunder of its 1997 cult predecessor. From delivering punchlines in Housefull 5 to stepping into the trenches for Border 2 , Sonam Bajwa's career arc isn't just genre-hopping—it's a bold recalibration. Her choices reflect not only ambition but a hunger to expand her range, from rom-com comfort zones to high-stakes war dramas. But this onscreen evolution echoes a deeper, offscreen journey, too. In a candid chat with Siddharth Kannan, Bajwa revisited the shadows of her childhood, being bullied for not fitting the fair-skinned stereotype expected of Punjabi girls. Relatives sidelined her, some even refusing to invite her home. That early exclusion etched a sense of defiance in her, one that now seems to be fuelling her fearless choices in cinema. With Baaghi 4 set for September 5 and Border 2 gearing up for a 2026 debut, Sonam Bajwa's filmography reveals not just ambition, but audacity. Will this move into war drama cement her transition from Punjabi?

EXCLUSIVE: Sitaare Zameen Par now on 3000 plus screens; Aamir Khan & Team set to go wide on exhibitor demand

Earlier in the week, it was reported that Aamir Khan and co. have devised a strategic release for Sitaare Zameen Par. The actor, along with his distributor, were aiming to go the old school way with the idea to bring the film on 1000 – 1500 screens in India, and increase it over the weekend based on audience demand. However, in an interesting turn of events, Sitaare Zameen Par is now all set for a wider release all across the country. According to sources close to the development, single screen owners, and non-national multiplex owners reached out to Aamir Khan with their willingness to screen Sitaare Zameen Par at their property from June 20. 'Though the genre has its limitations in the post-pandemic, the exhibitors are confident that the Aamir Khan factor, coupled with strong content will draw audiences in larger numbers over the weekend. The exhibitor support for Sitaare Zameen Par is also coming from the 'No OTT' stance taken by Aamir Khan. The film will now release on 3000 to 3500 screens all across the country,' the source informed, quick to add that rather than being conservative, the team is now going wide to make the film reach out to the audience. We hear that Aamir is going all out to bring out Sitaare Zameen Par in the best possible way to the cinema-going audience. 'He heard out the exhibitors, who were not too excited by the idea of platform release in the modern world, and then discussed the wide release plan with his distributor partner. They collectively arrived at the thought of going all out, rather than picking up on just high-performing properties. The exhibitors too have assured complete support,' the source added. With Sitaare Zameen Par, Aamir is attempting a game-changer move by not selling the OTT rights to any platform, despite multiple offers. 'He wants to keep it exclusive to the theatres. In-fact, Sitaare Zameen Par was initially made in association with Sony Pictures, but when the studio was not comfortable with the idea of 'exclusive for big screen', Aamir paid them off to acquire complete control over the film,' the source informed. Buzz is, Aamir paid a sum of Rs 30 crore to get the film out from the studio, to attempt the game-changing move of not selling digital rights to any partner. 'It's a brave call to pay-off the partners. Aamir spent Rs 30 crore just to buy back the rights from the studio, to ensure that his risk yields healthy returns,' the source concluded. The advance bookings for Sitaare Zameen Par are expected to open on Tuesday, and the pricing too is expected to be much in check, to make the content accessible for the cine-goers. The film features Genelia Deshmukh as the female lead, and is directed by RS Prassana. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates.
