MUMBAI: For decades, ACP Pradyuman, portrayed by the legendary Shivaji Satam, stood as a pillar of justice on Indian television. Alongside his trusted team Inspector Abhijeet and Inspector Daya the trio formed the very soul of CID, winning the hearts of viewers across generations.
With their unwavering dedication to truth and seamless camaraderie, they not only cracked the toughest of cases but also gave the show its distinctive identity. Week after week, fans tuned in eagerly, drawn by the trio’s sharp intellect, moral strength, and emotional depth.
However, when Shivaji Satam stepped away from the role, the void left behind was deeply felt. The emotional disconnect was so strong that many fans found it difficult to continue watching the show without their beloved ACP Pradyuman.

The channel and the makers were met with a wave of backlash, highlighting just how much the character meant to the audience.
But now, hope is on the horizon. The veteran actor recently took to social media, sharing a cryptic yet thrilling post featuring a photograph accompanied by the legendary line ‘Kuch to gadbad hai’. The moment was enough to send fans into a frenzy. Comment sections were flooded with excitement, as viewers expressed their belief that this was a clear hint at Satam’s much-awaited return.
One fan wrote, “That one line said it all. We know our ACP is coming back,” while another commented, “CID without Pradyuman is incomplete. We’re ready for the comeback!”
TellyChakkar was among the first to report that ACP Pradyuman would be making a return, with key links connecting his comeback to Parth Samthaan’s character, who is involved with the mysterious Eye Gang in the current storyline.
While an official confirmation on the episode date is yet to be made, sources suggest that viewers may witness the return of the iconic character as early as May a development that has certainly set the anticipation soaring.
With nostalgia in the air and fan excitement at an all-time high, one thing is clear: the presence of ACP Pradyuman is irreplaceable, and his return could mark the revival of the CID legacy in its truest form.
