New Look Of Dayanand Shetty: Whenever there is talk of 'dhamakadar entry' on Indian television, the name of CID Senior Inspector 'Daya' comes first. Yes, Daya, that iconic action hero of television history, who wrote the fate of millions of doors with just one kick or punch. From the 90s till now, Daya's 'rough and tough' style is famous in every household. But now wait, as soon as CID took a break on TV, its Inspector Daya also immediately changed his job! He has now become Manny i.e. Male Nanny.
If you thought that Daya could only do wonders as a police officer, then you will be shocked to see her new avatar on Netflix. Because in the web series 'Single Papa' being streamed on this OTT platform, Daya is not breaking any door, but has become 'Manny' to take care of a small child.
In the series 'Single Papa' Dayanand Shettyis seen in the character of 'Parvat Singh', this character definitely looks like a mountain, but he is not at all tough, rather he is very gentle. He is seen taking care of the child in the form of 'Manny' i.e. 'Male Nanny'. Just imagine, with the same hand with which he used to break doors, he is now holding children's toys. Where he used to talk about bullets and guns, he is singing a lullaby. Instead of his strict voice, now home remedies like 'Babuji, Munna will not get bitten by mosquitoes if he applies banana peel' are now being heard from Daya's mouth.
Seeing this transformation of 'Daya', the eyes of the fans are wide open. A promotional video of this series is going viral on social media. In this video Kunal Khemu The character of (single father) has a special problem with Daya becoming his 'Manny', because he is not able to digest this new style of Daya.

He proved that he can play not only action but also characters with soft emotions with ease. Now that Daya has taken off her 'Darwaza Tod' attire and worn a child care apron, one thing is clear, this time she has broken the door of stereotypes.
