Big Party On CID's 18th Birthday
CID completes 18 years. And, the thriller series is all set for a revamp.

The occasion will be celebrated with a grand bash tomorrow.

Here are 18 reasons that make CID one of the most entertaining shows on Indian television.

1. ACP Pradyuman (Shivaji Satam) and Senior Inspectors Abhijeet (Aditya Srivastava) and Daya (Dayanand Shetty) are small screen's superhuman 'Tridev' when it comes to solving crime cases.

2. ACP Pradyuman's brain works faster than Chacha Chaudhary (Chacha Chaudhary's brain works faster than a computer, remember?). So, he's 'officially' the man with the fastest brain on planet earth.

3. We love it when ACP Pradyuman says 'Kuch To Gadbad Hai' in his inimitable style.

4. Daya is such an expert at the 'Darwaza Todo' act, even Ajay Devgn hired him for the task in Singham.

5. Fans everywhere were shocked when ACP Pradyuman was arrested for betraying his country. They refused to believe this twist in the tale.

6. The entire nation went teary-eyed When ACP Pradyuman chose the country over family and shot his son.

7. Don't we love their dialogues!

8. ACP Pradyuman's obsession with 'suraag' (clue) makes even the viewers tired. He's been at it for long now. Why doesn't he take it easy?

9. No other sleuths get such interesting cases to solve.

10. There is no crime or criminal forensic expert Dr. Salunkhe (Narendra Gupta) cannot decode.

11. Even in the face of grim situations, Daya and Abhijeet don't fail to crack jokes. Their chemistry is awesome. Sample this:

13. CID entered the Guinness Book of World Records 2006 for filming an entire episode of 111 minutes (The Inheritance) in one shot without a single cut. Wow!

14. Despite being a weekender, the show has completed more than 1300 episodes.

15. CID has been shot in places like Uzbekistan, Paris, Switzerland, Berne and Zurich. Talk about good locations!

16. Salman Khan, Aamir Khan, Kareena Kapoor, Akshay Kumar... every time they have a new release, Bollywood celebs make a special appearance with ACP Pradyuman and his team.

17. The show caters to all age-groups.

18. Lastly, it's been 18 years, but ACP Pradyuman is as enthusiastic as ever. Even at the age of 65, he chases baddies like a 20-year-old.
