His multitude of talent made a humble beginning of an episode in Byomkesh Bakshi - Kahin Kavi Kalidas, where a very young but buoyant Aditya was seen as Madhumoy Sur in a cameo as one of the suspects in a murder, leaving a surprisingly significant impression upon the audience. He was next seen in Rishtey - Highway as Vijay, a rough and aggressive man involved in the cruel business of human trafficking, whose icy heart thaws when he falls for a young lady whom he had abducted in the course of his usual dealings. His gradual transformation in the aforementioned role is stunningly acted with well-balanced bouts of bluntness, subtlety and emotion. He gained widespread recognition for his role in Satya where, apart from serving as the narrator in various parts of the film, he plays Shukla's protege Inspector Khandilkar who executes Shukla's ideas in the field and avenges him by slaying Satya and his diabolical minions. He's since delivered excellent performances in various other movies and serials, featuring a plethora of varied characters.In Dil Se Pooch Kidhar Jaana Hai, he plays Avinash Srivastav, paired opposite to Vani Tripathi and one of a couple who get separated following the infamous Mumbai riots and meet several years later, with him becoming a cop and realizing that she's now a prostitute. He narrates his experience of playing this unique character in an unusually elaborate and heartfelt interview on IndiaFM.In Mudda - The Issue, he portrayed Harpool Singh , a rustic but fatherly political figure in a village who actively clashes with the ruling political head to usurp her. He played the role of Karan in Gulaal, a fiercely independent individual and the illegitimate son of a Rajput King who harbors a deeply felt loathing for his father, while maintaining an outwardly calm appearance. He played Puttilal, the child Phoolan's cruel and mercilessly abusive husband in Bandit Queen. In Deewar, he stepped into the shoes of Ejaz , a ruthless Pakistani officer who goes out of his way to make the lives of a group of Indian prisoners of war a living hell. On the other hand, he played the patriotic and valiant adjutant Pradeep; next to Amitabh Bachchan's character of company commander in Lakshya. In Black Friday, a striking film based on the tragic story of the 1993 Bombay blasts, Aditya portrayed the role of Badshah Khan , a henchman betrayed by his own people and left without cover to hide behind, who realizes the error of his ways and decides to become a police witness. He also played the manipulative and swindling solicitor Kamlesh Mathur in Ek Haseena Thi, who tricks Urmila into confessing a crime she'd never committed. And in stark contrast, he went on to portray the valiant and dedicated lawyer Harshvardhan Soni in Mohandas, a character symbolic of the desire for justice that burns in every human heart.He also played the short but memorable role of a responsible assistant police commissioner named Aditya in Saathiya, with Shah Rukh Khan. But all the positive and honorable traits he portrays in the aforementioned roles vanish like ice in a furnace as he steps into the toxic shoes of Dr. John Sanga in Dansh, a notorious doctor who rapes Sonali Kulkarni's character multiple times while having her bound and blindfolded before meeting her several years later; his cover is blown due to subtler non-visual clues she observes and is forced into confessing his atrocities. A drastically different and tragic character follows in Paanch, where he plays a certain "Murgi", the guitarist in a group of five apparently wayward and music-loving friends who enter a series of misadventures in pursuit of money to get their album released, with deadly consequences. He is the one to retain moral fiber and reluctance to join the infamy right until the climax, making for a truly captivating and enriching performance.In the recently released Kaalo, he portrays the role of Sameer , a commoner who sets out on a journey home back to his village and ends up saving a twelve-year old girl named Shona from the titular character, an evil desert witch. Apart from this long lists of movies he also acted in small impressive character in movies like Dil Se, Sanshodhan, Hazaar Chaurasi Ki Maa, Dil Pe Mat Le Yaar and Matruvumi: A Nation without Women.His further role in serials is equally, if not more, impressive. Star Best Sellers, 9 Malabar Hill, Yeh Shaadi Nehin Ho Sakti, Naya Daur, & Saturday Suspense Peheli are few serials where he acted.Apart from the aforementioned shows, he played a despicable role in the supernatural Raat Hone Ko Hai - Lifeline, that of a notorious character who prolongs his death by killing people with a long lifeline to even scores with an old enemy from his past life. He acted in other languages apart from Hindi- Alwar & Naalai are two such movies of this genius actor.
But none of those were as popular and widely appreciated as his portrayal of Senior Inspector Abhijeet in B.P Singh's now-famous crime thriller C.I.D., a dynamic character he's been bringing to life onscreen for over 15 years now. 
"Whenever you are on a crossroad, always listen to your heart. That's because the voice that comes from inside is never wrong. It never lies and always guides you well. This is what happens to the main characters in the film. When they are in crisis, they listen to the heart since it dictates what is right and wrong." - Aditya Srivastav Nobody can successfully step into the shoes of a character without imbibing its soul into themselves the moment the director says "action". Literally, they more or less become that person for a short amount of time, fully understanding what the character is and what its personality is like. Often, a good amount of research and more than large amount of rehearsals and takes are required to bring out the desired performance. With all the factors combined, it is a physically and psychologically stressful experience. The fact that Aditya Srivastav not only has such a vast range of strikingly varied characters under his belt, but has done them with surprising ease and touching humility, goes on to show that he deserves every bit of the enormous respect he's earned from his ever-growing fan-base and why he's one of the most versatile, talented, artistic and underrated gems in the Indian film and television scenario.
Aditya Srivastav initially joined the show for a single episode in the role of a reluctant criminal named Paresh, who steals the ACP's gun and attempts to shoot down his callous ex-boss before being stopped in the nick of time by the C.I.D team. His performance in that episode is radically different from the unflinching, headstrong, courageous and fascinatingly dark character of Abhijeet. Paresh in Stolen Gun Episode (1998) 
A capable police officer battling complete memory loss and trying to find his identity was how Senior Inspector Abhijeet was introduced in the serial CID on 21st July 1999 Case of Stolen Dynamite. The intelligent way in which ACP Pradyuman convinces Abhijeet to get back into his former life and the emotional turmoil that Abhijeet undergoes in the episode formed the debut episode of Aditya Srivastav as Abhijeet. Senior to Daya, second in command to ACP Pradyuman and a police sharp shooter whose anger is legendary just as his quick silver retorts regardless of the rank of the person interacting with him forms the character Abhijeet. He sauntered into everybody's heart, shocking many that Daya called him sir and ACP didn't mind his high handed ways. To many others he was a slice of reality in the uniformed forces solving crimes daily as their jobs. Sr.Ins. Abhijeet displayed his skill as a team player when his senior lost his eyesight and took command and as easily slid out of it when ACP came back with his eyes restored.
Abhijeet's understanding of Daya is legendary. Every nuance in tone or body language alerts Abhijeet and he is always there for Daya. The Case of the injured Witness shows how Abhijeet quickly assesses the situation inside Daya's house and helps to get Daya's family to safety so that he could carry out his job of protecting a witness. This in turn is reciprocated by Daya every time Abhijeet is embroiled in a controversy. Be it the case of the Accused officer when Abhijeet faced flak for accepting bribe or in the case of the two Abhijeets when an imposter was looting people using Abhijeet's name, Daya was silently supporting Abhijeet. Saving him from the stone throwing public or the press, Daya was always sure that Abhijeet could do no wrong. Abhijeet is Daya's conscience whenever Daya is in trouble and thinks of taking creative steps to solve the situation. The case of the Dishonest Cop has Abhijeet reminding Daya not to solve the murder case dictated by emotions. He is the one by Daya's side when the girl Daya had decided to marry turns out to be a traitor and had betrayed him to the drug lords. He doesn't allow he rto talk to Daya knowing that his friend would breakdown in front of all. He becomes impersonal in his investigation whenever Daya is implicated all the while supporting his friend emotionally.Both are ready to sacrifice their own life for each other. We get to see a glimpse of this in the overrated episode of Abhijeet in Coma, where the former doesn't even think twice before standing as a shield for Daya. A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.That is indeed a fact that the two of them prove every moment.
Dr. Salunke and Abhijeet initially have a no nonsense professional attitude towards each other. It slowly changes to great trust when Dr.Salunke stands by Daya and proves Daya's innocence in a death in custody. It slowly changes to sarcastic humour as time moves on and Dr. Salunke returns to CID minus a bald head. But the knowledge the doctor possess always has Abhijeet turn to him for confirmation. But he can never trust the good doctor as he trusts Daya or ACP. Asha the only woman officer to have driven the ACP and his men around while solving cases was always considered as a worthy team mate. A friendly relationship existed between her and Abhijeet. The only woman officer till date to have had the distinction to call the two officers by their name Abhijeet , Daya and sir was a formality of respecting rank and nothing more.
Muskaan, Anushka , Laavanya, Tasha , Kajal and many other officers who enter CID regard Abhijeet as the quintessential senior. He is like a star to be followed and a senior to be emulated. This is evident when Muskan is teased by the duo when ACP tells her that both his officers have received a special letter. Even the present new officers have accepted the second in command as just that- one not to be questioned and a person not to trifle with. In this a slight different officer is Dr. Tarika in the Forensic department with whom Abhijeet flirts even in the presence of ACP Pradyuman. But, even after wide speculation no confirmation of wedding bells are to be seen.Freddy is the loyal colleague he relies on inspite of the fear of ghosts that he exhibits. Yet funny Freddy is the only one brave enough to pull down a peg or two from Abhijeet and Daya. His comment that he is the only married man among the young officers and thus knows the mind of a woman makes the two officers under Pradyuman stop their teasing him about the loyalty he has for his wife. When Freddy's wife was implicated in a murder, Abhijeet refuses to accept the facts presented and provides the much needed support in all aspects to Freddy till the allegations are proved false. Vivek, Sachin, have always looked up to Abhijeet and the pranks played by Vivek has amused this sharp shooter no end. But the lines are clearly drawn with all new officers. The relationship he shares with Daya and Freddy is long standing and crosses many boundaries. But with any new officer it is that of a senior officer guiding and appreciating a junior officer.
Abhijeet's family is Daya and ACP Pradyuman for sure. He relies on these two men regardless of any situation. The trust he has in ACP Pradyuman can best be described as that of a father-son, Mentor-mentee. Be it taking a bomb blast as in the secret of code no. 571E1115 or daring to tell a blatant lie to DCP Samsher in Face off, Abhijeet does not think twice. ACP has to give a sign and he is ever present by his side to take action or decision. He refuses to become an ACP at the cost of ACP Pradyuman. Not only is he seen selflessly plunging head-on into the most dangerous of situations and clashing with everyone from amateurish criminals to the most ferocious monsters in existence in order to save the lives of innocents and his beloved teammates (and very often his own) but he's demonstrated a further stunning display of his versatility by portraying a variety of undercover roles while in the shoes of Abhijeet. One of the more early and popular examples of the same is seen in the episode, The Case Of The Undercover Cop, where Abhijeet disguises himself as a drug peddler and ventures into some of the most vicious and perilous ghettos of Mumbai to expertly mingle with a cruel gang of smugglers and going on to bust up the entire racket. From truck drivers, waiters, peons, salesmen, low-lives and barbers to doctors, librarians, junkies, hippies, assassins and auto drivers , he's portrayed them all in course of the show. Near about 45 episodes till now He portrayed different disguised character and surprisingly all this instance we couldn't find any traces of Abhijeet.
Another well-known but notorious role of his is as the perfidious rogue Rocky in the infamous 2009 episode, Beherupiya, where he kidnaps Abhijeet and uses plastic surgery to infiltrate the C.I.D team, successfully hoodwinking most of them until the climax where he's exposed by Daya and delivers him a near-fatal gunshot before being slain by the real Abhijeet. The episode largely focuses on red herrings as the team searches for the doppelganger in their midst, and subtle signs are used to indicate Rocky's infernal presence, a vile creature lurking behind Abhijeet's mask upon his face, and once again Aditya proved his prowess by carrying out this demanding role flawlessly. Abhijeet still remains the enigma whom all want to solve or understand yet few can get close to have even a couple of questions answered. His dedication to his job and his proximity to ACP Pradyuman and Daya puts him always in the line of fire. Many a times he has played with his life to get at the truth. Viruses, bombs, headaches have never been successful in deterring him from executing his job honestly and with lan.As The ACP said it once, Abhijeet manages to prove his worth inspite of hundreds of Agniparikshas that he has had to face till date. He has come out of it everytime, untouched, unmoved. And who better than Aditya Srivastav could portray this dark yet subtle, brilliant yet challenged by fate character of Sr.Inspector Abhijeet? Its very rightly said, Actors dont choose characters, rather characters choose actors for themselves ! Sr.Inspector Abhijeet has Chosen the Master himself, Aditya Srivastav.

I am so sorry sir. I... I didn't mean to hurt you at all. Please don't mind. The checks were necessary, we have so many imposters everywhere on the net. To add to that, your username was misleading. I wondered why would you use ACP Pradyuman as your username !! Just one query sir, How come you thought of visiting IF suddenly??
