MTV Hero Honda Roadies is about to start its seventh Season this year (MTV Roadies 7). Already, there are many imaginations populating the mind of the audience. A few striking ideas come out as glaring suggestions. A few believe that roadie shall now travel to Africa, a place where real, virgin dangers lie. It’s all great passing through Singapore and Australia but no place brings fear as nude as Africa. Pyramids are another place to shoot roadies 7.0.
The game shall also bend towards being more merit-driven. This would infuse raw talents to work their way better. After all, mind games are all right but a small mistake here and there and every thing can be shattered. The elimination of Roop in roadies 6.0 is a case in this point.
MTV Roadies 7.0 shall also change the concept of biking to something more daring. In fact, each contestant shall be asked to be strong in one particular niche of adventure and his performance in that particular draw shall count. Wrestling bouts should be annulled as they need raw power and thus those who are light-weighted cannot perform as meritoriously.
MTV Roadies saw its first season in the year 2003, and since then it has become a hit among the Indian youth. This is no celebrity show and no crores of rupees at stake, still young generation is crazy for the show, as it has all the adventures, all the drama, all the politics and all the masala which makes it popular among youth. Most people will vouch for MTV Roadies to officially be the first Reality Show that was telecast on Indian Television. As a matter of fact it is the longest running reality show in Indian Television
Among all the seasons of MTV Hero Honda Roadies, or Roadies as it is popularly known, season four (MTV Roadies 4) has been the most popular. Apart from the adventure this time, another reason for its success was the popularity the show gathered in the four years from its launch.
The first show had only eight participants, and now the number has risen to thirteen. MTV holds auditions in various spots in India, People who turn up for the audition are made to fill up a form, then they undergo a group discussion, following which selected candidates are chosen for personal interview conducted by the three judges from the MTV panel, who test them with utmost passion, to see the hunger for adventure, patience, confidence, compatibility, decision making capacity, whacky-ness and much more.
This not only provides entertainment to the audience, but also gives them a thrill, a motivation to try such things themselves, but in the MTV arena! MTV has made so many regular youngsters icons of the youth. Today's youth swears by the qualities of Roadies that they see on TV. The contestants reaching final five are given bikes by Hero Honda. Going through a hard regime and completing tasks they gather money that is the prize money for the final winner, MTV Roadie!
