As part of the competition, the kids had to answer two multiple-choice questions about the Tinkle characters "Defective Detectives". The contestants then had to give a subjective opinion on "C.I.D." characters.

Characters ACP Pradyuman, Daya, Abhijeet and Fredericks played by Shivaji Satyam, Dayanand Shetty, Aditya Srivastava and Dinesh Phadnis, respectively, were present at the event.

Trisha Roy from Bengaluru, Kaustubh B from Ahmedabad, Arundhati Joshi and Raghav Binwal from Mumbai, along with kids from various Mumbai schools got a chance to learn new things from all the artists, who play cops in the show, which has been on air since 15 years.

'CID' is a very popular show among kids, hence it was the right opportunity to partner with Tinkle and get them to meet their favourite 'C.I.D.' heroes," Gaurav Seth, senior vice president (Marketing and Communications), Sony Entertainment Television, said in a statement.
