MUMBAI: Roadies is one of the most popular adventure reality shows. The show is hugely popular among the young viewers. And now, another exciting journey has come to an end. The show has found its winner in Arun Sharma.

The 16th season of India’s longest running adventure reality show, Roadies Real Heroes, has its winner in the Kashmiri boy, Arun Sharma. A part of gang leader Raftaar’s team, Arun took the trophy home, defeating Gang Prince in the grand finale on Sunday. This season premiered on 10 February 2019 and took the viewers to the magnificent hills of South India, from the Kannan Devan Hills of Munnar to the western ghats of Chikmagalur, to the highest peak of Karnataka- Mullayanagiri and unfolded yet another beautiful journey.

An elated Arun said, “Coming from a remote village called Nahoti near the LOC, with financial issues and lack of language skills, it was difficult for a boy like me to make it. But as they say, the one who has seen the difficult times, values victory more. Being rejected from the culling, was never a setback because of two reasons: A. The respect I earned after the culling itself was inexpressible and B. Because I crawled my way back into the game with even more vigour. Tasks was one thing I was forever confident about, because I believed in my strength and that helped me win titles like those of the Task Monkey, the Beast or Bolt Lightning. Moreover, the biggest hand in my success has been of my gang leader, Raftaarsir. The epitome of humbleness, integrity and love, I was mesmerized being guided under him and can never forget those eyes that looked at me as his final hope. The journey was well lived, with my friends and foes, but I conquered them all and I can't thank them enough. I believe that with a stubborn mind and a constantly improving skill set, you can conquer anything.”
