    Is your childhood drama, CID, making a comeback on screen after six years?

    India’s CID was undoubtedly a top-rated drama watched avidly by many people in Pakistan.

    The drama aired for 20 years before calling it a day in 2018 despite being very popular.

    But the drama is returning to the small screen once again after a gap of six years.

    Many old characters like ACP Pradyuman as well as Abhijeet and Daya are also returning.

    However, the other actors who will be part of this drama again are unknown as yet.

    Dinesh Phadnis, who played Fredericks, has already passed away.

    The famed drama serial’s return was announced by the TV channel in a social media post.
    According to the channel, an explosive promo will be released on October 26.

    Over 20 years, 1547 episodes were aired.

    Earlier, actor Sivaji Sattam, who played the lead role in ACP Pradyuman, shed light on the real reason behind the ending of the crime drama.

    On this occasion, he shared, “Disagreements between the show’s producer and the broadcasting channel led to the closure of the show, which had been successfully running for 20 years.”

    He further added, “Before the show went off-air, the channel changed its broadcast timing so that viewers would lose interest, or at least, that was the channel’s intention.”
