Remember CID Fame Viivek Mashru Aka Inspector Vivek? He Has QUIT Acting & Now Working As A College…

CID, the popular crime-solving show of the 90s, held a special place in the hearts of its viewers even now. ACP Pradyuman and his team of talented detectives captivated audiences for many years as they unraveled mysteries ranging from kidnappings to murders, sometimes even involving celebrity cameos.
The team itself was a diverse group, with tough individuals like Daya and Abhijeet, the comedic sidekick Freddy, and young officers like Vivek, who fearlessly performed daring stunts to catch the culprits. While the team saw changes in its lineup of young officers over time, Inspector Vivek remained a constant presence for the longest period.
However, one day, Inspector Vivek suddenly decided to bid farewell to his gravity-defying adventures and left CID behind. Since then, fans have had to rely on reruns of old episodes to relive his moments. But determined fans managed to track him down and discovered that he had embarked on a new career path.
Viivek Mashru, the actor who portrayed Inspector Vivek, was chosen for the role through a nationwide talent hunt. He graced the screens of CID for almost five years before his departure. Currently, he serves as a professor at CMR University in Bangalore, where he holds the esteemed position of Director of the Department of Common Core Curriculum. Yes, you read that right!
Years after his exit from CID, he made a comeback in the news thanks to a nostalgic tweet expressing appreciation for the actor, which led to a comment mentioning Viivek's current occupation as a professor in her brother's college.

Netizens then eagerly embarked on their investigation and stumbled upon Viivek's LinkedIn profile, which revealed that he had graduated from the University of Texas a few years ago. Prior to joining CMR University last year, he had gained experience working in the marketing departments of various universities and colleges.

Although Inspector Vivek may no longer be defying gravity on screen, his academic transition showcases the versatility and diverse paths that actors can pursue beyond their on-screen personas.
Take a look at the screenshot of his LinkedIn profile here:
