Private Notes
The season begins with the Pune auditions. It's early morning and already a long queue of over 1400 show up.
After all the tears, joys and arguments at the Pune auditions, the audition gang, move to Kolkata and Delhi.
We are covering the auditions in Chandigarh and Mumbai. The Chandigarh guys express their opinions very forcefully. At the GD everyone yelled at the other.
Finally the judges have made their choice, and now 14 Roadies hopefuls have been asked to come to Mumbai. Of these, only 7 will become roadies.
So the journey begins. The roadies have landed in Kolkata. They are shown to their rooms, pick their riding partners and then get dressed for the launch party to be held at TANTRA.
It's the day after the party, and its 5.15 am. Aarti has to get everyone out of bed and in the lobby in 15 minutes! The Roadies are led to the Victoria Memorial in Kolkata where the boys select their bikes and then get individual lessons from Hero Honda professionals. Post lunch the Roadies had to perform their first task on the river Hoogli.
