While some fans like Trisha Shah express their eagerness to see the show return, citing its family-friendly content, others fear it may struggle to resonate in today's gritty crime genre landscape. The producers aim to stay true to the original's charm, avoiding graphic content while presenting outlandish yet "believable nonsense.' This balance between absurdity and engaging storytelling was part of what made CID so loved by its young audience in the 90s, laying the groundwork for future crime shows in India. As nostalgia envelops viewers, many parents, like Priya Ravi, are even excited to encourage their children to experience the series, hoping it carries the same engaging and wholesome messages they cherished in their youth.

With a carefully crafted narrative that captures the essence of a simpler time, CID’s revival may provide a comforting reminder of how far Indian television has come while also connecting a new generation with its roots.
