Roadies - Inside Story!

03 Oct 2009 - 09 am
Parel (east).
Mtv office.

Seperate Q for gals n guys.Though initially there were less crowd in gals Q but later on the no. increased.Common thats not the point..Ok, around 8.50am the procedure started a guy from mtv started verifying our audition forms n id card & we were allowed to go inside.

This time only selected people were called for auditions.Though when I filled the form online we were told that we need votes through sms so that we get an audtion call.But waha pey kuch log aise bhi they jinone vote ke liye kuch bhi naya kiya tha but still such people were also called.So there's no such criteria like on whta basis they called up people for auditions.

I was 5th in gals Q,So I had very close view of what's happening in the front side..around 09.30am the vj named ayushman came...now the funniest part starts - There were 3 tables kept covered with black table cloth,the scene was like the vj had to come runing from behind & had to climb the tables n say "KASA KAY MUMBAI" though this happened but in a strange way coz the tables were not ready for the shot and it collapsed embarassing ayushman..as whoever saw that bursted into laughter.....hehehehehe!! Though after 5-10 mins retake was taken but this time the vj silently stood on a chair and said his dialogues....hehehehe! Yeh log khud nai sambhal patey hai & chale hai ROADIES dhundne!

Ok people before I forget ..at the very starting of the shoot a lady from mtv came and started instructed us that whatever we have to speak should be purely in HINDI no ANGREZI & can you believe it people the instruction were given in ANGREZI itself....I was like what a shame yaar,the phrase "LAW MAKERS ARE LAW BREAKERS" really suits MTV. Ok then uskey baad woh vj thoda sambhal gaya and chup chap zameen pey vj giri karne lag gaya.(I am very sure woh apney purey zindagi main kabhi superman ka role nai karega...hehehe!!)

Ok now back to auditions guys-So after thoda bahut interaction with the vj we were given the labels or stickers(dont know exact word) which were sticked on to our t-shirts.Inside there were some stalls of sparymint,fiama di wills etc which had games to play and all (all marketing fundas huh!)After I guess 1/2 hr we were send to 3rd floor of mtv studio there all the participants were grouped in 10 per GD group.And we were send to gd rooms...can any1 guess who was the judge..ok No price for guessing it was none other than a CAMERAMAN(thank god SPOT BOY or LIGHT MAN nai tha) I was like WTF man!!
Shocked na..socho mere temper ka para kaha tak uda hoga! :(

Ok, ye adarniya Camera man ji started instructing us..like our gd topic was ARE REALITY SHOWS ARE REAL OR FAKE? and he said the same ki hum HINDI main discuss karna hai and dis too was in ANGREZI..shocked again!

As soon as he gave the topic everybody started barking & camera man got bugged as he could not understand anything..so finally he told that we will go 1 by 1.Unlucky me I was the first 1 to start .Though I talked for around 5-7 mins but adarniya judge sahab dint pay nay heed as he was busy with messagin from his black berry..Till the 5th participant the condition was same.I think when the 6th participant stated he suddenly woke and told the participant to tell their names 1st from where do they come n all(kinda introduction first) n then start the discusion....We all(earlier 5 contestants) were so pissed by now, utter partiality people.I was toh like Hum kya yaha pey goti khelne aaye hai??..like wise all 10 finished talking and we were told that the selection list will be out by 5pm.Around 11.30am we were out of the mtv office.

And by 5.15pm the list was out to my surprise forget about me but no1 from my gd group was selected.While standing in the Q in morning i made 5 freinds and luckily we all five were in 5 different groups and after talking to them to my shock no1 from their was also selected.That means out of 50 people nobody was selected.When I found out what's the case - Only people who either ealrier had participated in some reality shows on mtv were taken or some vj's GIRL FRIENDS were selected.I was zapped for a moment to see that ROADIES like other reality shows is a scripted show and not at all REAL..it's a deep shit guys.In advertisement they say that they want young people who have do or die kinda atitude..... reality main aisa kuch nai hai.All rubbish I think they have already decided about whom to take and all, they just did a formality by calling up people to auditions creating mess and portraying in news papers that roadies is such a famous show.Beleive me guys aisa kuch nai hai..there's no such criteria like on what basis are they selecting / rejecting people sab pehle sey hi set hua hota hai...n public ko yeda bananeka kaam hai.Ek bandi joh select hui thi woh ek ex roadie ke bhai ki girl friend thi..hardly 5ft tall god knows woh kya tasks karnewali hai.Young public ko chu.. bananeka kaam hai sab..

The only good thing hapened with me is that - mere sir se ROADIES ka bhooth toh utar gaya, yeh sab dekh ke.I came to know that ROADIES like any other reality show is 100% fake and scripted show.The only intension of such programs is increasing their TRP,Publicity(false) and fooling people like me who feel that roadies is all about doing task's and all.But its not true.Jo madhur bhandarkar ney Pg 3 movie main dikhaya woh sab sach hai.

Yeh sab padhneke baad bhi people who still want to go and waste time in auditions I would like to give them VISHESH TIPANNI :
FOR GIRLS :-
1.Wear Skimpy and exposive clothes (MANDATORY) this way they check how many are attracted to you.
2.Either have a relation with some VJ or somebody in MTV.(Camera Man,Spot Boy etc ..hehehehe!!)
3.Be 100% prepared for any scarifice oops! I mean compromise :P
4.Auditiond form main sab zuth n fake likhna n likhe hui cheez par confident rehna.

FOR GUYS :-
1. Auditiond form main sab dhasu,dare devil wali baatein likhna bhale hi woh fake kyun na ho.
2. Be extra and over smart.
3. Do lots of show off and over react on evrything that's happening during auditions.
4. Be very fake and confident.
5. Show that in your life you have gone through lots of pain and you can go to any limit to come on TV.
!! DHANYAVAAD !!
I am just waiting for the day when the show is goin to be broadcast.Just wana see how are they gona project all these things on TV.
But frankly speaking for me it was a good experience that I saw such bitter truth of life so closely.And just wana say that if any1 who still want's to be in roadies have lots of patience.
Finally, I wana thank to each and every person from my bottom of my heart who voted for me.(Tought votes was not the criteria at all)
Moral of the story is :- Roadies is a deep shit.People who wana become model,actress and wana take up such profession in future should only go for reality shows.As the TRICK OF THE TRADE is very bad and a person has to be mentally prepared for all such things and I think aspiring actresses or models have already made up their mind for such things.So for them getting into this shit is not that dificult ..Right people!!
Waiting for comments huh!
