Veteran actor Shivaji Satam, best known for his iconic role as ACP Pradyuman in the long-running television series CID, is at the center of speculation regarding his exit from the show. Rumors have been circulating that his character may be written off through a dramatic bomb blast sequence. However, when approached for clarity, Satam stated that he had no confirmation regarding the storyline and is currently on a break from shooting.
Having portrayed the sharp-witted and commanding ACP for over two decades, Satam acknowledged the show’s immense contribution to his career. He expressed contentment with his journey, adding that he’s ready to embrace whatever lies ahead, whether or not his character returns. For now, he is looking forward to a personal holiday in May to spend quality time with his son visiting from abroad.
Meanwhile, sources suggest that actor Parth Samthaan might be entering the series in a new role, potentially leading the team forward. Given CID’s history of reviving popular characters, there remains a possibility of Satam’s return. The show’s earlier success was largely attributed to its engaging crime-solving narratives and its memorable characters, leaving fans hopeful that the legacy of ACP Pradyuman may yet continue.
