Few months back, Rannvijay Singha had announced his departure from the popular reality show 'MTV Roadies' and subsequently, actor Sonu Sood was roped in as his replacement. This decision has polarised fans into two groups. While some are excited to see Sonu in Rannvijay's shoes, there are some who believe that he isn't a worthy replacement for Rannvijay.

In a recent conversation with The Indian Express, Sonu Sood addressed this issue. Talking about Rannvijay, Sonu said, "He has been so good as the host. Of course, when you step into someone else’s shoes, there will be comparisons, and people will say ‘Kaisa hoga, nahi hoga’. I wanted to live like a Roadie with these contestants, be a host, a mentor and experience what they do."

The actor further shared, "Also, somewhere we connected in a magical way. That’s what I want people to see. While the DNA of the show remains the same, the scale is larger and the journey is more real and raw this time.”

Sharing his own experience of working on the show, Sonu revealed, "I knew I had to be a Roadie myself and experience what they’re experiencing. We spent 45 days in South Africa, and every single day was a learning experience. We lived our lives the way we always wanted to in college. It was one of the most special experiences of the last 20 years. I have done so many movies, travelled across the world, and done so many stunts, but Roadies was the most special experience."
