CID has captured hearts ever since its inception. The show has received an incredible reception from the audience. It is the most popular TV series. It started in 1998 and ran well till 2018. However, when the show took off the air in 2018, the crowd was astonished and disappointed. People never wanted their favourite show to end. Shivaji Satam, Hrishikesh Pandey, Dayanand Shetty, Janvi Chheda, Shraddha Musale, Aditya Srivastava, Narendra Gupta , and others inspired us all to adore CID. The show's characters are iconic and meaningful to all of its viewers.

Even today, people still love this show. People are embracing the new season and its storylines. We have our classic characters back. This season has been filled with twists and turns. Shivaji Satam, also known as ACP Pradyuman , was found to have died as a result of Barboza .


The entire squad was split, and we saw Parth Samthaan enter as ACP Ayushmaan. With his entry, we saw him say that there was a 'Gaddar' on the team that assisted Barboza. There were numerous plot twists in the latter two episodes. ACP Pradyuman was reunited with him, and the full story of Barboza was disclosed. We also watched Barboza's plot backfire, although he was not arrested.

ACP Pradyuman reunited with his squad and complimented Ayushmaan for managing the team properly while he was absent. Inspector Shreya returned to the show, and we witnessed an emotional reunion with Daya. Ayushmaan soon questioned ACP Pradyuman who was the team's 'Gaddar'.


He then disclosed that Dr. Salunkhe was the traitor. He also admitted to abandoning the CID team since they constantly took credit for solving the case away from him. Dr. Salunkhe was then arrested, and Narendra Gupta's time on the show came to an end.

However, fans are dissatisfied with this narrative for Dr. Salunkhe, who has played a significant role in the show. They are dissatisfied with the absurd explanation presented for Dr. Salunkhe's betrayal. One of the users on X wrote, "What you have done #CID2 team? Why do you make the villain Dr. salunkhe? This is impossible to believe, isse acche Dr Gargi hi bana dete gaddar! Dr salunke acche dr k sath sath fun loving bhi thi. You destroyed a good character! #CIDreturns #CID"


Another one penned, "Dr. Salunkhe & traitor? The most shocking & highly unacceptable thing I saw in CID was that this man gave his 27 years to Cid, log forensic unki vajah se jante hai & he is a traitor. I really hope it's the plan, bcoz we can't accept this. He is an OG team member of Cid @Narendragupt #cid #cid2"

A user also wrote, "Dr Salunkhe ko kaise traitor bana diya? usne to DNA report check karke bola ki ye ACP Pradyuman hai, achha hota ACP Ayushman ko traitor banata,wo to ACP Pradyuman ke tasbir ko ag lagata tha, uske coin pe ek taraf eye gang tha aur dusri aur ACP."
A fan slammed the makers, 'Are the makers of this show for real?? Dr. Salunkhe? Really? lol, the reason is so silly though and why everyone is so casual as if he's some random guy getting the tag of a traitor? Something is fishy, it's definitely a plan. I'm not gonna believe this pls.'
