Rajeev
Khandelwal |
He was Star’s heartthrob
with Kahiin To Hoga, but
couldn’t really set the Zee
fires ablaze with Time Bomb.
Now, Rajeev Khandelwal, the
nearest one could come to a
phenomenon on Indian
television, will join the
CID team on Sony as ACP
Prithviraj.
Rajeev will take over the
mantle of the senior cop
from ACP Pradyuman, played
by Shivaji Satam, who will
be shown suspended from the
police force in the next
episode of CID.
Pradyuman faces the axe,
thanks to his son Nakul
(Rahil Azam), who’s been
charged for being part of an
international terrorist
group. Pradyuman decides to
side with his son, and this
gets him suspended, on
technical grounds, says the
show’s supervising producer
Yash Patnaik.
Whether
Satam will stay off the show
for long, or will be brought
back, is not known. Satam
himself was unavailable for
comment. Satam has played
ACP for the last eight
years, ever since the
inception of the show.
Whether Rajeev, who played
chocolate hero in KTH and a
sleuth in Time Bomb, will
enjoy playing the new ACP
for a long time, remains to
be seen. Stay clued to this
space for details
