Popular television host and actor Rannvijay Singha has announced his departure from Roadies, a show he has been associated with for 18 years. The reality show in its 19th season has been taken over by a new production house.
Singha is currently involved with hosting the trending business reality show Shark Tank India. He has been a regular feature on Roadies since its first season. He started off as a contestant, winning the first edition. He went on to become the host of the show and then a mentor.
“The channel has been a key pillar of my journey and I’ll be doing interesting work with them. On this edition of Roadies, things didn’t work out from both sides. Our dates were not matching and it is disheartening,” Singha told Hindustan Times.
Singha is also working on a show titled Safari India, which will explore India’s national parks and champion the cause of preserving wildlife.
It is widely reported that actor Sonu Sood will replace Singha as mentor-host of Roadies. The new season, which will be shot in South Africa, will not have the usual format of “gang leaders”.
