Expressing his happiness on the rerun of the crime show, Satam has been quoted by TOI saying, “It makes me happy and joyous that people will again get to see and experience CID. It ran for 22 years — that’s not something you can achieve with poor content. Our stories were so engaging for people. Everywhere I go today, people recognise me as ACP. It was such a good experience for us as actors because we became a large family. The show saw so many actors come and go. It will be fun to relive all of that.”

CID became popular for its dialogues, action and star cast that included actors like Dayanand Shetty, Aditya Srivastav, Dinesh Phadnis and Narendra Gupta among others in pivotal roles.
