*Two people walked into the dark, empty bureau early in the morning and quickly closed the door.*

GD: Good! The place is empty. FW was so right.

Rifah: I still can't believe that FW actually let us come here!

GD: Oh come on! After all I love Daya sir!

Rifah: But why did thy let me come here? I love Aditya sir.

GD: I told them that you were preparing the surprise. So they had to let you come here.

*Suddenly there is a loud scream from ACP Pradyuman's cabin. GD and Rifah rushed into the room to see fighting.*

Chair: It's my turn!

Desk: NO! It's my turn!

Chair (grabbing desk's leg): I told you it's my turn!

Desk (grabbing chair's back): I told you it's my turn!

Rifah (yelled): SILENCE! What are you both fighting about?!!

Chair (pausing, but not leaving desk's legs): We all want to prepare for Daya sir's birthday by decorating ourselves and the things around us. Last year the desk led the entire thing! This year it's my turn!

Desk (not leaving chair's back): LIE! This chair led the organization last year! It's my turn!

Rifah (yelled): SILENCE! This time we're leading the party preparations!

Lamp: Who the hell are you?

GD: CIDians. FW's special CIDians.

Rifah: Exactly. And that's why we're going to lead the party preparations this time.

Computer (from outside): Never! We do it every time and we're going to do it this time as well!

Rifah: Never! We're going to do it!

Drawers (from outside): Never! It's our job and we're going to do it!

GD: How about we do it together? You know exactly what goes where and you can help us there and we can tell you what we want to do. How's that?

Rifah: Why should we do that? We do it every year. We should get to do it this year as well. After all it's our first time in the bureau.

Desk: I agree. We do it every year. Why should we give it up to you?

Chair: Actually I don't think the idea is too bad. I'm sure Daya sir is getting bored of the way we organize the party. So they can bring something new to the idea.

GD: And Rifah think about it this way. If we don't work with them they can ruin our party preparations. Why not?

Rifah (grumbling): Fine. Let's do it.

Computer (from outside): What's the idea?

GD: You agree?

Desk (hesitantly): Yeah I guess so.

Rifah: Okay so what do you usually do?

Wall: We usually just put up streamers, a banner, and some balloons.

GD: Colour?

Chair: The usual red and orange, silver and black and white.

Rifah (exchanging glances with GD): Okay how about we bring about glitter, food, and lots of balloons and streamers?

GD: I like the idea. And lots and lots of colours!

Chair (enthusiastically): I like the idea! Let's do it!

*The furniture, GD, and Rifah quickly get to work preparing for the party.*

Dayanand Shetty plays the role of  Senior Inspector Daya in C I D for which he's immense popular. He won the best looking guy vote conducted by Indian television, in 2002.

Daya was born on 11th December, 1969, in a Tulu speaking Bunt family in Katapadi village of Udupi state of Karnataka state in India to Chandra Prakash Shetty and Uma Shetty. He has two sisters. Daya did his B.com from Rizvi College, Bandra. He's married to Smitha and has a daughter named Viva.

Daya was basically a sportsman, a short put and discus thrower and won many prizes in those. He was the champion of discus throw from Maharashtra in 1994. He left sports due to leg injury.

Later he got into acting as a theatre artist and worked in plays like Secret and Kaalchakra. He got the best actor award for one among them.

One day he went for the auditions held for a cop in the show CID and that was something which made all the difference. There were seven popular faces standing at the spot and Daya had to converse a dialogue," Apna kaam kaaj jari rakhiye ". That was the first time he faced the camera as an actor and CID's producer BP Singh showed him a thumbs up from behind the camera. Daya originally joined the team as a sub-inspector and currently he's Senior Inspector Daya.

He has appeared in a lot of shows and ads, even movies.

When tragedy stuck Uttarakhand, he went there to lend a hand in 2013.

 "We've been hearing the horror stories, and feeling helpless," says Daya. "Along with my producer BP Singh and some assistant directors, I'm going to Uttarakhand and will help in any way possible. We will reach Rishikesh and go up to Joshimath and organise a food camp where the most people are stuck," he says. 

From Sub inspector to Senior inspector, D A Y A has been an iconic character of Indian television and the actor holds the great credit of having immortalized this character. This character gave him immense fame since 1998. Who else, apart from Daya would have managed to portray the legendary super cop?

Inspector Daya is the backbone, the main muscle of C I D, one of the three central pillars along with ACP Pradyuman and  Abhijeet. Apart from using his amazing investigative skills, he uses his muscle power to subdue criminals. He's a nightmare for the criminals. But away from this outer tough macho copish look, he's a soft-hearted man as evident in plenty of his scenes.

Daya's relation with his team members is very special, especially with his best friend Abhijeet, their friendship is immortal. Numerous times the two have risked their lives to rescue each other.

Next is Acp Pradyuman who is like a father to him, then come Freddy and Dr. Salunkhe.

Daya has always proved to be an ideal senior for his juniors in the CID team..a leader to guide them to radiance.

There have been plentiful occasions on which he got roughly injured and convicted but each incident has made him stronger than ever. From "The case of the missing bullet" to "Behrupiya", to the recent "Daya vs Daya", he faced all the hurdles and conquered them.

Have a glimpse of Our Super Cop, Senior Inspector Daya..
