MUMBAI:
India's first youth adventure reality show MTV Roadies is
back with its tenth season with a modified format. The tenth
season is named 'MTV Hero Roadies X - Battle for Glory' and
will have a face-off challenge between the mastermind of MTV
Roadies Raghu Ram and the boy who won the show's debut season
Rannvijay.
The
auditions for the tenth season kick off on 31 October with
the first stop being Pune, followed by Delhi, Chandigarh and
Hyderabad.
In
the new season, contestants will be part of two teams. The
new Roadies selected will be on Rannvijay's team while Raghu
will have a team of ex-Roadies who have had an interesting
journey on the show.
Ram
said, "This year, Roadies completes a decade as the definitive
reality show for the youth of India. And in its 10th year,
Roadies enters the new era, where the new struggles with the
old for its true place. Is it time for a new generation of
Roadies? This question will be answered as Rannvijay, the
mainstay of Roadies, takes on the old establishment and its
way of getting things done. This season is all about the winds
of change, as the new challenges the old in a battle for glory."
VJ Rannvijay explains said, "Raghu and I have always
been on the same team. This is the first time that we will
be competing against each other due to conflict of opinion.
The decade season of MTV Roadies will be packed with excitement
and thrill, like all other seasons. I am sure the fans of
the show will enjoy and look forward to the season."
MTV
India EVP and business head Aditya Swamy said, "This
year we celebrate the decade of a cult called Roadies and
of our 10 year partnership with Hero. We call this season
Roadies X and this signifies a start of a new era in the journey
of Roadies. As the new takes on the old, we put to test a
very basic question of life. What does it take to win? Politics
or Performance. Hai Dum Ladne Ka?"
Hero
MotoCorp SVP(marketing and sales) Anil Dua said, "Hero
MotoCorp today is one of the largest corporate promoters of
talent in the country on diverse platforms. We have been associated
with MTV Hero Roadies since its inception and this season
is a celebration of that decade-long association. To bring
more attitude, fun and excitement among the contestants, we
have brought India's first on-road-off-road (trans-roader)
motorcycle 'Hero Impulse' into this cult program. The Roadies
will certainly get a ride of their life as they battle it
out on the Impulse in some of the toughest terrains. We wish
all the contestants of MTV Hero Roadies-10 all the very best.
Ride safe and have fun."
