‘The Transition Is...': Parth Samthaan On Facing Struggles With Typecasting
Last Updated: Parth Samthaan was recently seen in the popular TV show CID as ACP Ayushmann. Parth Samthaan, widely known for his role as Manik Malhotra in Kaisi Yeh Yaariaan, recently made his TV comeback as ACP Ayushmann in the iconic TV series CID. The actor became a household name with Kaisi Yeh Yaariaan, which first aired on TV and later moved to the OTT space. Over the years, Parth has appeared in a number of TV shows like Kasautii Zindagii Kay and MTV Warrior High, closely followed by his roles in films and web shows. Despite the expansive career graph, Parth Samthaan strongly believes in the hardships of breaking free from typecasting. In a conversation with Bollywood Bubble, Parth opened up on how fans initially react after seeing actors in a new role, after enjoying their performance in a character for a long time. Speaking on the transition between films and TV shows, he said, 'The switch is tough as television is something which leaves a mark on everyone's mind as it goes on for a longer time. Films are different, as you watch them for two hours, and then you forget them. It can linger on your mind for a few hours and maybe a day or two, and that's it. But television is something that is part of your daily life. People see you everyday at 8:30 PM, then you are on OTT, and then on the news. The character remains constant around you, and it goes for several years." The actor went on to explain how it wasn't easy for him to switch between roles in the beginning, as fans didn't like him in newer roles. 'They would give me a heads-up about not liking my current roles and going back to the previous ones," he continued. Elsewhere in the conversation, Parth Samthaan spoke about his popular show, Kaisi Yeh Yaariaan, revealing how its success came with a lot of challenges. 'The show gave me success, but it also took a lot away from my personal life. That happened with other actors as well, who were a part of the show. Our personal lives were screwed, were dismantled, were a mess," he shared.

After backlash for being cast as ACP Ayushman in CID 2, Parth Samthaan confirms exit: 'I have other work commitments'
Many were left disappointed after it was revealed that actor Parth Samthaan would be taking on the role of ACP Ayushman in CID 2. Shivaji Satam's performance as ACP Pradyuman was a fan favourite for more than two decades. Now, in an interview with Pinkvilla, Parth has said that he will be leaving the show because he has 'other work commitments'. (Also read: Parth Samthaan reacts to backlash for his casting as ACP Pradyuman in CID: 'Replacing a legend is never easy') Speaking about the show, Parth said, "It's been an absolute pleasure to be a part of a cult show like CID, even if it's just for a brief period. I was on board for a few episodes only, a guest appearance, but later got extended for a couple of months. Initially, we couldn't give any confirmation on the same as it would have spoiled the excitement of the show. And now with Shivaji Sir's return, that thrilling twist about the mole will be unfolded very soon." He added, "Anyway, I have other work commitments lined up, hence I won't be continuing for long. But yes, I'm grateful for all the love and support the audience has shown during my brief stint." Speaking to Hindustan Times, Parth had earlier admitted that he rejected the role as he had doubts about replacing the most iconic character. In an interview, he said, 'Initially, I rejected the role of ACP Pradyuman, because I don't relate to it. But the makers asked me to reconsider. I was also hesitant due to the show's long-standing cast and the fact that they'd have to address me as 'sir' on screen. It felt a bit unusual and awkward.' The second season of CID premiered in December 2024 and is available to watch on SonyLiv.

CID: Low TRP Triggers Parth Samthaan's Exit From Series, Shivaji Satam To Return As ACP Pradyuman
New Delhi: CID, the beloved crime series, returned to the television screens in December last year. Fans, however, were left disappointed over the iconic character ACP Pradyuman's (played by Shivaji Satam) exit from the show. Now, Parth Samthaan has slipped into the shoes of Shivaji Satam as ACP Ayushmann. Despite fans loving Parth's performance, reports have suggested that the new development has impacted CID's viewership. According to a report by Money Control, CID's TRP has witnessed a significant dip after Parth Samthaan joined the cast. Adding to the slump is the heightened competition from the major sporting event, IPL 2025. The easy availability of CID 2 on Netflix has reportedly further diverted viewers from the series. Rumours are also swirling that Parth Samthaan might be leaving CID soon. If reports are to be believed, the makers are considering bringing back Shivaji Satam as ACP Pradyuman to boost CID's TRP. Meanwhile, another report by FilmiBeat refuted the speculations. A source close revealed, 'The rumours of Parth leaving might be false. The channel has to understand that the easy availability of CID 2 online and competition from IPL 2025 have severely affected the viewership of the show. Just Shivaji Satam's exit was a promotional gimmick; we have to wait for some time to know the clear picture.' So far, neither Parth Samthaan nor the makers have confirmed anything. Previously, Parth Samthaan shared his excitement about playing ACP Ayushmann in CID. The actor, in a conversation with Saas Bahu Aur Betiyaan, said, 'It's a very big responsibility to fill such humongous shoes. I'm not stepping into ACP Pradyuman's character – this is a new story, a new persona. We're carrying forward the CID legacy with fresh thrill and suspense.' Earlier this month, Sony TV announced the death of ACP Pradyuman's character by uploading a post on X. The side note read, 'ACP Pradyuman is no more. In the loving memory of ACP Pradyuman… A loss that will never be forgotten.'

CID: Parth Samthaan To Leave Show Due To Dropping TRP, Shivaji Satam To Make A Comeback?
Last Updated: Previously, in an interview, Parth Samthaan also admitted that he had doubts about taking on the role of ACP Ayushman in CID. CID fans were left shocked, disappointed and even excited after Parth Samthaan replaced Shivaji Satam in the show earlier this year. While the latter used to play the role of ACP Pradyuman in the popular show, Parth was introduced as ACP Ayushman after the death of Satam's character. Even though Parth's performance is being widely appreciated, a new report by Money Control now claims that the development has impacted the show's TRP negatively. Reportedly, CID, which also streams on Netflix now, has been struggling to keep up with its high TRP. Therefore, makers are reportedly considering bringing back Shivaji Satam as ACP Pradyuman to boost the show's ratings. While this left many wondering if Parth Samthaan might exit the show, another report by Filmibeat claimed that it might not be the case. 'The rumours of Parth leaving might be false. The channel has to understand that the easy availability of CID 2 online and competition from IPL 2025 have severely affected the viewership of the show. Just Shivaji Satam's exit was a promotional gimmick; we have to wait for some time to know the clear picture," a source cited by the entertainment portal said. However, it should be noted that neither Parth Samthaan nor the makers have confirmed any developments regarding the rumoured exit of the actor from the show or the return of ACP Pradyuman. Previously, in an interview, Parth admitted that he had doubts about taking on the role of ACP Ayushman. The actor was speaking to Hindustan Times when he said, 'Initially, I rejected the role of ACP Pradyuman, because I don't relate to it. But the makers asked me to reconsider.
