Tigmanshu Dhulia Makes a Comeback as the Notorious Barbosa from the I-Gang in CID
New Delhi : Sony Entertainment Television’s most popular crime show, CID, is all set to shock and surprise the audience with its upcoming track. Renowned filmmaker and actor Tigmanshu Dhulia is making a return as the ruthless and notorious Barbosa, the leader of the I-Gang. After a gap of six and a half years, Barbosa is back with one mission — to complete his unfinished goal of taking down the CID Bureau. This time, the I-Gang’s dangerous plan will shake the CID team to its core. Their deadly moves will destabilize the very foundation of the CID Bureau and lead to unexpected events. Barbosa’s return will bring a significant twist to CID, with thrilling suspense, heart-pounding action, and shocking turns that will leave the audience on the edge of their seats.
Talking about his comeback, Tigmanshu Dhulia said, “When I first joined CID six and a half years ago, I was a bit hesitant. I thought I might just fade into the background, but I was amazed at how it turned into an incredible experience. The audience really appreciated my character, Barbosa, and the I-Gang. I’ve been called back due to public demand, and I couldn’t be happier. My journey with CID has been amazing — the entire team is incredibly talented, and their professional attitude is unparalleled. Such dedication is rare in this industry. From technicians to artists, most of the crew members are familiar faces. Coming back to the show feels like returning home. I’m thoroughly enjoying this experience.”
Expressing his excitement about reprising his iconic role, Tigmanshu shared, “This time, I’m back with a clear mission, fully prepared. My character is even more intense, clever, and unpredictable than before. At any moment, he could turn the game around. That uncertainty makes him even more dangerous. This time, Barbosa has a distinct stylish edge that adds to the thrill of portraying him. I’m having a blast playing this character. I promise that my return this time is going to be explosive. The upcoming episodes will be an exciting rollercoaster ride for the audience.”
