A usual day of March 2010, an individual's eyes get stuck while checking channels. The point of attention was a show named CID. A six feet and two inches tall officer who looked extraordinarily handsome and cute appeared on the screen, being chased by rest of his team as they thought he's a criminal in disguise of their officer. The officer succeeds in proving they were off beam and rescues one of his team mates. Meanwhile, he gets shot by the fake officer and the team rushes in tears, to the hospital. The episode ends on the officer's unresponsive face and the individual's mind gets fixed to marvel, what would have happened next? One day after inquiring about the officer addressing him as the man in brown shirt, as shown in a recent promo, a short and sweet name changed the aroma of atmosphere, Daya! This name has become a reason to smile for many and the beholder is our very own, Greek God!

So, no need to guess why we are here as the title says it all.

Dayanand Shetty is someone who needs no introduction to those who have been following the most popular and longest running Indian show, CID. He has been the part of this shown since its initial and is among one of the best officers. His powerful slaps and specially breaking doors have become a style class nowadays. Daya's smile needs a special mention. When it comes to his strong fan following, the famed Madhuri Dixit is no exception as she too became an admirer of his magical smile.

For us Dayanand Shetty means '

D ' Decent & Decorous

A ' Amiable

Y ' Yare

A ' Admirable

N ' Noble

A ' Authoritative

N ' Notable

D ' Down to earth

S ' Selfless

H ' Heroic

E ' Elegant and Energetic

T ' Truthful

T ' Trustworthy

Y ' Yani ki the best man in the world

So today we are here to rejoice the birthday of the most handsome cop in his entire universe and our very own Greek God.

Happy Birthday to Daya Sir! 🥳

Dayanand Shetty plays the role of senior Inspector Daya in CID. He won the best looking guy vote conducted by Indian television, in 2002.

Daya was born on 11^th December, 1969, in a Tulu speaking Bunt family in Katapadi village of Udupi state of Karnataka state in India to Chandra Prakash Shetty and Uma Shetty. He has two sisters. Daya did his B.com from Rizvi College, Bandra. He's married to Smitha and has a daughter named Viva.

Daya was basically a sportsman, a short put and discus thrower and won many prizes in those. He was the champion of discus throw from Maharashtra in 1994. He left sports due to leg injury.

Later he got into acting as a theatre artist and worked in plays like Secret and Kaalchakra. He got the best actor award for one among them. One day he went for the auditions held for a cop in the show CID and that was something which made all the difference. There were seven popular faces standing at the spot and Daya had to speak a dialogue," Apna kaam kaaj jari rakhiye". That was the first time he faced the camera as an actor and CID's producer BP Singh showed him a thumbs up from behind the camera. Daya originally joined the team as a sub-inspector and currently he's Senior Inspector Daya. He earned fame as Daya of CID and has also essayed the role of Harpreet Singh in Sab Tv's Gutur Gu. He has made guest appearances in shows like Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahi and Kkkusum. He was invited as a celebrity guest in Deal Ya No Deal and appeared as Shivaji Satam's friend in Jeena Isi Ka Naam Hai.

Apart from this, he has shared screen space with actors like Dharmendra in movies Johnny Gaddar and played a police officer in Runaway.

Daya was a contestant of Jhalak Dikhla Jaa season 4. His fans had a treat watching their dearest super cop dance on the stage. He got "Performer of the day" on his first ever dance performance.

Daya is a very integral part of the CID team. Apart from using his amazing investigative skills, he uses his muscle power to subdue criminals. No criminal can ever get away from his custody. He shares a great bond with his team members, especially with Abhijeet. Daya is dear to all the age groups but kids love him the most.

A very happy bleated birthday to you Daya

Keep Smiling and Making us go

We all love you

Lets get the party started 🥳

A special song to you

tum jiyo hazaaron saal saal
saal ke din hon pachaas hazaar

sooraj roz aata rahe roz gaata rahe
leke kiranon ke mele
palachhin kaliyaan gin gin tera har din
tab tak rangon se khelen
rang jab tak baaki hai bahaaron mein
tum jiyo hazaaron saal
saal ke din hon pachaas hazaar ...

yahaan vahaan shaam ho chaahe jahaan
yoon hi jhoome shama sunake tumhaari baaten
pyaar liye chaand ka teeka liye
yoon hi juganu liye chamake tumhaari raaten
noor jab tak baaki hai sitaaron mein
tum jiyo hazaaron saal
saal ke din ho pachaas hazaar ...
