From being trolled by people to making them love this ACP, it was a beautiful journey of learnings, laughter, and sweet memories. I will always cherish the bond I shared with the entire CID team—cast and crew. So much love and respect for one another, no wonder it became the longest-running and most iconic show.

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. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo CID, which originally aired from 1998 to 2018, has left an indelible mark on Indian television.
