MTV Roadies 5.0

MTV Roadies is an adventure reality TV show that tests the spirit of young groups traveling cross-country on bikes. The show was created in 2003 by Raghu Ram, the senior supervising producer of MTV India channel.

The show features thirteen Roadies, who are given Hero Honda Karizma bikes to travel all over India on a pre-decided route. They are given tasks at every destination which are either Money or Immunity tasks. A particular amount of money is decided for a money task in which they have to earn that money. An immunity task is team based or carried out individually where they have to perform certain tasks to get immune from the next vote out. Each week a vote out is held where all the roadies vote out one of the non-immune Roadies. The one who gets the maximum votes is eliminated. The final seven Roadies will win a Hero Honda Karizma bike and the last Roadie will win a cash prize of Rs. 5,00,000.

The show is in its fifth season this year. The winners of the past four seasons were as follows:

Rannvijay Singh (Delhi)

Ayushman Khuranna (Chandigarh)

Parul Shahi (Delhi)

Anthony Yeh (Kolkata)
