The MTV Roadies reality show and its seven stars are making news on wheels.

Everybody wants to be a roadie. At the Pune auditions, there were already 1,400 hopefuls queueing up early in the morning. Same scene in Delhi where 4,000 people turned up for the auditions. A total of over 10,000 people auditioned for the show. Only seven made it across. People went as far as quitting their jobs to take part in this adventure. Crazy? Maybe, but you have to let the spirit of adventure in you run loose sometimes.
The popular MTV Hero Honda Roadies 2 is on its way. The show where normal people like you and me can turn into stars. Last year's Roadies show was a huge success. This year, the roadies are travelling from Kolkata to Wagah, along the Grand Trunk Road. The route promises to hold a lot of exciting adventures for the seven roadies.
The lucky seven are Aarti Seth from Delhi, Ayushmann Khurrana and Candy Brar from Chandigarh, Neha Bhatia from Pune, Shaleen Bhanot and Vinod Rawat from aamchi Mumbai and Varun Agarwal from Kolkata.
This show is all about reality, and about how complete strangers can get along with each other under different cirumstances. If last year's show was anything to go by, this year's event will be even better. The most popular roadie will walk away with Rs 5 lakh and those who complete the show ride back home on a brand-new Hero Honda Karizma.
The Karizma is a good machine to go on long distance rides. The bike is a great handler and its 223cc engine will help the roadies effortlessly ride the long road. The show airs on Mondays and Tuesdays at 7:30 pm only on MTV. So, be sure to catch the seven and their adventures. l Ouseph Chacko
