The auditions of the much-anticipated season 19, which took place on Saturday at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium Complex, Pragati Vihar, New Delhi, attracted youth from all over the city and its neighbouring areas.

The gang leaders interacted with the contestants and encouraged them to bring out their best. The contestants went through rounds of group discussions, showcasing their strength, stamina, and mental fortitude.

The shortlisted Roadies will advance to the personal interview round.

Rhea Chakraborty, who was last seen in the 2021 thriller Chehre featuring megastar Amitabh Bachchan, was in the middle of a storm after her actor boyfriend Sushant Singh Rajput was found dead in 2020.

Her life turned upside down after she was accused of abetting Rajput’s suicide and misappropriating his wealth by his family.

Chakraborty became the subject of intense trolling and media scrutiny, which many felt was a “witch-hunt”, and had to eventually take a break from work after Rajput’s sudden death.
