Rannvijay's throwback Roadies pics

Rannvijay Singha posted pictures from the final day of Roadies 1

Rannvijay took to his Instagram on Friday to share four pictures from the sets of MTV Roadies 1, when Hrithik Roshan made an appearance to gift the contestants the keys to their bikes that they got as prizes.

In the photos shared, Hrithik can be seen sitting on a yellow Karizma at the centre, with the contestants posing next to him. Hrithik is wearing a white T-shirt, dark blue denims, and a black biker jacket. Rannvijay is seen a few inches away in a similar get-up, although he chooses to carry his jacket on one shoulder, while sporting his left bicep in a sleeveless white T-shirt. He's also devoid of the dense moustache and beard he's synonymous with today, barring a goatee that was in vogue back then.

Stand-up comedian Kenny Sebastian was among those who took to the comment section of the post to share their fond memories of watching Roadies. He wrote, “Karizmas are synonymous with dream goals for biking in india, Hrithik and you cemented that culture for us (bow down and fire emojis).” Rannvijay replied to him with a namaste emoji.

Suyyash Rai, TV actor who broke through on MTV Splitsvilla 2 where Rannvijay was a host, wrote, “Bajaj bhaiya nd ypu (red heart emoji).” Interestingly, he also auditioned for MTV Roadies 5, but was rejected. Rannvijay responded to him with a hug emoji.

Shiv Thakare, who was a contestant on MTV Roadies Rising, also commented heart emojis. Actor Siddhanth Kapoor also commented, “I remember this (heart in eyes emoji).”
