Raghu Ram at the MTV Roadies Chandigarh auditions
hat is connects Ayushmann Khurrana, Rannvijay Singh and VJ Bani? Well they all went to MTV roadies, are from Punjab and made it big in their respective careers, post their Roadie stint. Roadies has become more of a brand now, and more and more youngsters aspire to be a Roadie now. Punjab has witnessed a considerable number of contestants, and they keep on increasing each year.
More than 5000 participants were auditioned at the Chandigarh auditions for the 11th season of the show and this number was significantly higher than last year's figures. Speaking about the Chandigarh auditions, Raghu Ram said, "Chandigarh auditions are one of the most exciting auditions I look forward to them every year. The turnout is great and the response remains overwhelming."
Chandigarh based Prabhjot Kaur Virk, who was a part of Roadies 5.0 and was one of the 5 finalists said, "Roadies was more than a game for me and even after six years it still feels great being a part of that season. Though life remained unchanged but the recognition, fame and appreciation was overwhelming. It doesn't really matter if you are a winner or you not but yes, you may get good offers from the entertainment industry."
Rannvijay Singh, "Roadies just happened but being a part of the most celebrated youth adventure show on Indian television feels great. I must say, from a contestant to be a part of the selection team is an achievement and is like a dream come true. This year 'Roadies X1 Ride For Respect' will be fresh, exhilarating and daring like never before. This show is for people who are both mentally and physically brave to take up the challenges."
Ranjit Bajaj, who was in the first season of Roadies and reached the final leg with Rannvijay, says, "For me it was a show full of adventures. From day one I never wanted to go in TV, films or venture in to the entertainment industry at all. I did this show as driving on different terrains from Chennai to Chail, 40 days, 4400 kilometers, was not possible otherwise. Roadies is indeed a great game show but what makes it different and special for me is the proud feeling of being the first one from Chandigarh to be a part of the first season of this show."
