Parth Samthaan Takes Over CID: A New Chapter Begins

Parth Samthaan Steps into Big Shoes on CID

\

Actor Parth Samthaan has officially taken over the lead role in the long-running crime drama series CID. He’s replacing the legendary Shivaji Satam, who played the beloved ACP Pradyuman for decades. It’s a big change for fans, and Parth admits he didn’t expect the backlash to be so intense.

Facing the Trolls

\

In a recent interview, Parth acknowledged the understandable upset among viewers. He says everyone has a right to feel that way, especially since Shivaji Satam was so iconic in the role. He even admitted he’d probably feel the same way if he were in their shoes!

A New Challenge, A New Character

\

But Parth is determined to make the role his own. He’s bringing a fresh character, ACP Ayushman, to the show. This isn’t a simple replacement; Ayushman has a different dynamic with the other officers, creating new tension and conflict that promises to keep viewers on the edge of their seats.

Respecting the Past, Embracing the Future

\

Parth says he wants to bring something new to CID while still respecting the show’s legacy. He’s clearly aware of the responsibility he carries and is determined to do justice to the iconic series. The show itself is taking a new direction, focusing on the hunt for the killer who murdered Pradyuman. It’s no longer just a case; it’s personal for the team.

From Hesitation to Commitment

\

Interestingly, Parth initially hesitated to take on the role. He didn’t feel a connection to the original character, ACP Pradyuman. But the show’s makers convinced him to reconsider. He’s now fully committed to making the new chapter of CID a success.
