CID, which ran for 21 years and lasted 1547 episodes had few parallels in terms of viewership. The show was a colossal name when it came to the crime genre in India’s entertainment industry. Back in 1998 when TV shows were expanding its space with different experiments, this show proved to be a path breaker. Characters like Daya, Abhijeet and of course, ACP Pradyuman became a household name. The storyline was fresh for the 90s kid growing up who quickly became hooked to the show. With a pinch of comedy in between largely serious moments, the show had everything people looked forward.

Speaking of the show returning to the channel during the coronavirus-induced lockdown, lead actor Shivaji Satam, who played the enigmatic ACP Pradyuman in the show told TOI, "It makes me happy and joyous that people will again get to see and experience CID. It ran for 22 years -- that’s not something you can achieve with poor content. Our stories were so engaging for people."
