The wait is over: MTV Roadies 6.0 starts airing on MTV from 29th November, 7 P.M onwards. MTV realized cult dimensions with music and then diversified its path to reality shows. It expectedly championed even this territory. Few years ago the channel forayed into a youth-specific formula of success. The format was titled MTV Roadies. It aimed at picking city and town youths from various disciplines, those who were more likely of being on the positive side of the youth graph, and pitted them against each other at a very competitive level.
The aim of the program was to find a boy or a girl who could be resilient enough in overcoming back-to-back travails of daunting adventures and peer conspiracy. The show brought to us the guile of Nikhil Chinappa, an MTV icon in his own rights, and Raghu Ram, whose fierce eyes and stoic appearance seemed enough to unnerve even Prometheus.

Those answering to the Roadie call were to first go through the grind of a rigorous selection process where they matched stock with the two giants. Nikhil has always been cocky and effusive with his study of candidates. Raghu brought the fear factor despite being fairly unassuming.
After being rigorously tested, few of the candidates were selected and then the Roadies adventure started. Spread over more than a month, candidates had to pit their powers against each others. Physical competitions, back bitching plans, voting out a fellow Roadie; all was aimed at lasting out the others for the eventual tag of the Roadie winner.
Traveling long distances over bike formed a quintessential part of the adventure. Bounties did not equal that being offered by other reality shows but the intrinsic realism and youth adventure propelled the participants to give their best shot.
