Talking about his unexpected exit, Shivaji earlier told Bombay Times that he had “no idea” the makers were ending his character. He also shared that he’s planning to take a break in May 2025 to visit his son, who lives abroad. “Right now, I just want to take a break and enjoy life. I’ve worked hard for many years, and I think I deserve it,” he said.
The show depicted ACP Pradyuman’s character as dead following a bomb blast that CID’s enemy, Barboza, orchestrated. The CID team was heartbroken by his loss, and a new ACP was brought in.
Recently, Parth Samthaan joined the show as ACP Ayushman, marking his return to television after five years. The show also features popular actors like Dayanand Shetty, Aditya Srivastava, and others in important roles.
