I FELL FOR THIS CHARACTER WHEN...
a) Acp
There is no one moment when I fell for ACP. It was a gradual increase of respect. One lovely moment was in Missing Bullet - when Daya tries to shoot himself and breaks down in ACP's arms - I loved that scene. I didn't know that a strict ACP would be so sweet to a junior officer.
Then the episode where he lost his sight. I was horribly shocked and was hoping that the loss of eyesight is just a temporary thing, but he was back next week without his eyesight and I was crying my eyes out. Love you sir...👏
b) Abhijeet
Hmmm....😳😳😳😳😳 'Pehli nazar mein aisa jadoo kar diya....'.
Loved Abhijeet from Day 1. I love how he has grown from the brooding, lost, lonely guy to what he is now.
c) Daya
Case of the missing bullet. I am one of those fortunate few who has watched the episode and remembers it. I fell for him with that one expression - when Viren asks him to hand over his gun and badge. Till then I was never a die-hard fan of CID. Never felt bad missing it or anything. But after this episode, I swore never to miss another episode. Daya is the reason I became an ardent fan.
I would also like to add - no doubt Daya is a handsome guy, but more than his looks, I love his nature. In 'Blind Witness', he stays back at ACP's house, though he himself was tired and sleepy. The way he asks Abhijeet to take the Qualis and goes off in a taxi in 'The unknown girl'...he was always tooo sweet.....😳😳😳😳😳
Many have mentioned Behrupiya. I don't want to even think of it. 😭
d)Freddy
Nothing in particular...because he was Michael first...so his character was always confusing. But the first time he made an impact was when he said that dialogue 'aaj tak maine kiya kya hai, yes sir, no sir ke sivay'. I don't know why, it just touched my heart.
e) Asha
WOW...my dear lady - no particular moment. She was there from the beginning and I liked her from then. Loved her guts, body language - everything.
f) Vivek
When he was gasping for breath in the 'Khooni Mosquito mat' episode. I felt suffocated seeing him like that and realised that he is an indispensable part of CID and not one of those temporary replacements.
g) Niyati
I always loved the way she pulls our trio's legs. I didn't see her in sequence from the beginning, but I just LOVED her dialogue in the Taipan Saanp episode - 'Itni zor se dua mat kijiye, dushman paas hi khade hain'. And the 'kiss' wala dialogue with Abhijeet in the 'Khoon Ka Raaz Phate Crossword Section Ke Paas' episode.
h) Salunkhe
It was his intelligence that won my respect for Salunkhe. I remember one episode where he finds out the height of a shooter by tying strings and judging the angle from which the bullet has come. I was bowled.
i) Sudhakar
Hmmm....didn't really win my heart ever. And his tiff with Abhijeet....well........excuse me.
j) Viren
Of course Missing Bullet. I was feeling so bad for Daya and felt happy with the way Viren puts in all the effort to clear Daya's name.
And even before CID, I liked Ashutosh Gowarikar. In fact I took my first look at CID because of him. I missed him for a long time after he left CID, till Abhijeet came on board.
So, that's from me. 😊
