India’s beloved crime drama series CID is making a much-awaited comeback after a six-year break.
The popular show, which originally aired from January 1998 to October 2018, is set to return to Sony Entertainment Television, where it last aired before being unexpectedly discontinued.
According to reports from Indian media, the shooting for the new season commenced on November 22, 2024, with a special “mahurat puja” attended by the cast and crew.
The new season of CID is set to bring back familiar faces, including Shivaji Satam as ACP Pradyuman and Aditya Srivastava as Inspector Abhijeet, who will reprise their iconic roles.
Fans are thrilled about the return of the crime-solving duo and the continuation of their thrilling investigations.
Although the exact release date for the new season has not been confirmed, industry sources speculate that the premiere is likely to take place around Christmas 2024.
The show’s return was teased with a promo released on October 25, 2024, which generated excitement among viewers by hinting at a dramatic twist where Inspector Abhijeet appears to fire a shot at Daya.
CID had been a staple of Indian television for over two decades, captivating audiences with its suspenseful plots and compelling characters.
The sudden cancellation of the show in 2018, due to disagreements between the channel administration and the directors, left a gap that fans have eagerly hoped to fill ever since. With the new season now in production, viewers are eagerly awaiting the return of their favorite investigators.
As the team prepares for the action-packed new season, CID fans are hopeful that the revival will meet their expectations, continuing the legacy of one of India’s most iconic crime dramas.
