Idea of the Show

MTV Hero Honda Roadies is a reality TV show aired on MTV. The inventor and the creator of the show is Raghu Ram (Executive Producer of MTV Roadies/judge). The main idea of the show is to test the creativity and the attitude of the person, who has got the survival instincts. Who can play his/her game in his/her own way.

Selection Procedure

Auditions are held in various major cities in India. People who show up for the audition are first separated by a group discussion. People who pass the group discussion are personally interviewed by one or more judges. This audition is deliberately acrimonious to test the participant's attitude. In the first two seasons 7 Roadies were selected. Since then, this number has been increased to 13. There is no limit as to how many times a person can audition. Currently season 5.0 is running and this time they have gone far i.e. "The game goes International". It will cover India, Thailand and then last Malaysia. The Auditions for this season has just been done by the panel of judges. 1. Raghu Ram who is the creator and the inventor of the show and 2. Nikhil Chinappa who is the VJ at MTV.
