In an earlier interview with News18, the actor talked about the show, “Many a times, irrespective of the success of the films I did, people have told me, now you have become a hero, tujhe Roadies kyun karni hai, chhod de. I don’t understand this. Roadies is not the same show every year. We’ve been changing things since we own the IP of the show. It is registered in 19 other countries, when they make it they call us. There is no other show in India which can boast of this. It’s the biggest show made or owned by an Indian company.

“It also takes us to different parts of the country where we don’t just do tasks, we also experience the local culture. There is so much to see and learn every year that I am growing and evolving with the show. One day, when I’m not current and we’re not vibing, we won’t do it together,” Rannvijay says.
