MTV Roadies is Inspired from MTV Road Rules in the US, MTV Roadies is about a gang of girls and guys who bike their way through India. But this year the game has gone international and this season's auditions have subjected India's youth to mass torture, (All thanks to the judges!) leaving auditioned cities in ruins.
The creator and executive producer of the show Raghu Ram along with VJ Nikhil Chinappa sure know how to entertain the audience with their razor-sharp wit. Obviously, it wasn't hard for them to be as ruthless as a razor.
Packed with pulsating stunts and tough guy acts, MTV's weekly reality show Roadies has managed to hook millions of Indians, from college goers to school kids to housewives.
Five years after it came into being, MTV Hero Honda Roadies has proved to be one of the most popular programmes on Indian television today and thousands across the country send entries to participate in the adventure show.
This year 13 contestants were selected after being auditioned for attitude, tolerance and patience. The selected Roadies are given bikes to travel on a pre-decided route and assigned difficult physical or rational tasks. A vote-out takes place at the end of the show and whoever survives till the end is declared winner. And of course it's all captured on camera.
The winner is rewarded a cash prize of Rs 500,000 and a bike.
