It really can't get any better.
The promo promised, the show delivered. Mumbai was the last pillar of the auditions so it stayed in focus for the entire journey so far. Last week, Roop made us proud by her par excellence performance and this time around Ashish from the community was in the hot seat. We will get to him later, but first a quick round-up
The priliminary auditions were held online and the shorlisted victims appeared for the GDs. It was its usual chaos and commotion, throwing up 12 participants out of which Ashish and Tejaswini were familiar to me.This one was gonna be an entertainer.
Truer words were never spoken. :P
PI time. The first to walk in is apna "macho" dude Sufi Malhotra.An aspiring actor, he seemed way too agressive to be normal. He had a good physique, so apna desi Tarzan was ready to carry off his pics everywhere.(He had met Raghu last year at Roadies auditions, and Rajeev at Splitsvilla auditions already with the same set of pics..but still :|)Neways, a scuffle over his portfolio turned into a mini combat as he rose up from his seat and approached the twins in an attempt to prove his point. BIG mistake. Three things happened almost simulatenously- he was pushed, Raghu started his swearing, and the guards escorted him out. Sufi was still panting and cursing as he exited the venue, and looked like the muscleman had taken a bit more than he could chew.
But he was back, more on that later.
Next in line was Suzanna Mukherjee, another stunner to the group of pretty faces this year(Not complaining ^_^).However, she had more to her than just her looks. Innocent, outspoken and charming, she was well versed in Ukranian and Russian and cursed the twins in multiple languages at the drop of a hat when asked.(Jaw dropsO_O).She was at ease throughout the interview and her confidence seemed to be rising. She was asked to dance, and what followed was the most entrhalling and finest dance performance ever in the history of Roadies. (Drool Tsunami O_#). The twins were visibly impressed and so were we.Selected!
My Rating: 3.5/5(Another livewire in the cards.Would be intersting how she manipulates the guys in order to get her way. In short, a true entertainer.)
Sunny was the next victim on hold. His form seemed sensible, so the twins went aggressive on him just to gauge his reactions. Sunny stuttered and stumbled through a boring interview as Rajeev brought out the laughs through his jokes. The twins laughed, Sunny babbled. I swtiched between smiling and yawning. Finally interview over.Sunny you are SO-NOT-FUNNY. The result was pretty obvious-not selected!
Our own community banda Ashish walked in next, claiming to have a two year preparation on his side.He spoke about how he saved and watched every audition clip to take tips, and his hard work was evident as he talked about postures and other criterias, citing examples from the Ayaz interview. This guy had done his homework! All was going according to plan, so Raghu decided to switch the plans. Suddenly there was some serious amount of manhandling(which included a chair being pulled from under him) and Ashish was too shocked to react. Raghu apologised for it later but i still find it a bit overboard. However, Ashish still stuck to his plan and kept it cool. He had a focus to impress the judges, as he went about his determination. The twins seemed confused at times, and frustrated during the rest. Ashish tried to pull out all the stops, including a card of missed opportunities and chances in life. Alas, he had already dealt in the wrong hand. I gave a sigh as the result unfolded-Not Selected!
ANOTHER SHOCK. Apna muscleman is back, sans the agression O_O
Yes, Sufi was back once more, in a more sober and tolerable form. After sending a despotic SMS to Rajeev that screamed "WTF" , he was back on the ropes once more, with another shot to live his fame and success. Gone were the snarls, the tiger had been tamed into a pussy cat. He seemed in the principal's office, as he mumbled and nodded to what the twins said. He also acted a bit and showed us his physique. Both were impressive, and this time he seemed tolerable compared to the last(When I wanted to douse him in kerosine and set him into flames >_<). He seemed to be faking his calm nature, but it worked for him. Selected.
My Rating: 2/5( Roadies has a hunk, nothing more. His physique is the only thing that screams hot" in him because his no-brainer mindset, a repulsive screen presence and wannabi-sh attitude go limp for him right at the start. He would have it rough out there!)
Finally the auditions were drawn to a close, as we had our 20 roadies.
And then came the BEST part of the evening, a sneak peek of the journey.
It was INSANE. We had the roadies go through the most outrageous of tasks as they bitched, swore and seemed to be under demonic possession beating the shit out of each other. (Pradeep kicked Devarshi as Poulomi was grounded to pulp by another roadie O_O).Twisted, maniacal and with a whole lot of jaw dropping scenarios, this is truly Hell Down Under this time around.
Akshay Kumar dons the badass cap this time. Couldn't get any better.
Don't forget to tune into the opening frenzy as the journey kickstarts next Saturday 7 pm.
It's my MTV.
