Parth Samthaan likely to replace Shivaji Satam in CID.
Parth Samthaan is likely to make his comeback on television after five years. The buzz is that the actor is likely to join the popular show CID. As reported by Gossip TV, Parth is in talks with the makers of the show to be the new ACP Pradyuman. However, there is no official confirmation on this as of now.
It should be noted that the reports of Parth Samthaan joining CID come days after India Today reported that veteran actor Shivaji Satam is set to bid goodbye to the show. Reportedly, Satam will die in the show after becoming a victim of a bomb blast. Even the actor confirmed to the Times of India that he is currently on a break and is “not shooting” for the show.
Parth Samthaan is an Indian television actor who appeared as Prithvi Sanyal in the series Best Friends Forever. Parth’s career took off after he appeared in Kaisi Yeh Yaariaan, playing Manik Malhotra. He worked with Niti Taylor on the show, and the fifth season was streamed last year. He also appeared as Anurag Basu in Ektaa Kapoor’s sequel to the hit series Kasautii Zindagii Kay. The actor starred opposite Erica Fernandes.
In 2024, Parth Samthaan also made his Bollywood debut with the film Ghudchadi. It was a comedy drama which also starred Sanjay Dutt, Khushali Kumar, Raveena Tandon and Aruna Irani in key roles.
Meanwhile, talking about CID, the first season of the show went off air on October 27, 2018, following a successful 20-year run on Sony TV. The drama had a skilled cast, including Aditya Srivastava as Sr. Inspector Abhijeet and Dayanand Shetty as Sr. Inspector Daya. CID 2 returned to Sony TV on December 21, 2024, after much anticipation, bringing back the main characters. The show is presently available for streaming on Netflix as well.
