Kushal Tanwar a.k.a Gullu from gang Elvish wins MTV Roadies Double Cross

National, 1st June 2025: India’s longest-running and most thrilling adventure reality show, Hero Karizma MTV Roadies Double Cross, co-powered by Avvatar Sports Nutrition and POCO, just wrapped its most unpredictable season ever! With mind-blowing twists, gut-wrenching betrayals, and a never-seen-before wildcard Gang Leader entry, this 20th edition of MTV Roadies was nothing short of iconic. And at the heart of this chaos, emerged the name that ruled it all, Kushal Tanwar a.k.a Gullu, the newest Roadies Champion, securing a sensational win for debut Gang Leader Elvish Yadav.

From being picked in a fierce bidding war by Elvish to forming one of the most heartfelt bonds of the season, Gullu’s journey was a rollercoaster. After his elimination mid-season, he made a stunning return in Gautam’s gang only to double cross him and rejoin Elvish for the grand finale. His calculated moves, intense performances, and emotional vulnerability made him a force to reckon with. In a breathtaking finale challenge that pushed physical limits and mental strength, Gullu beat Hartaj and Rishabh with mere seconds separating the champion from the rest.

Ecstatic about the win, Gullu said, “Winning MTV Roadies Double Cross wasn’t just a title — it was a silent scream finally heard. There was no support, no guiding hand, no one to lift me when I was down. I went through it all alone. This win is more than a trophy. It’s a symbol — for every person who’s ever felt alone, who’s ever been told they’re not enough. I walked this path by myself, but I never gave up. And that’s what this victory is: not fame, not glory — but proof that even when you have nothing, you can still become everything.”

Elvish Yadav, proud of his protégé, added, “From Day 1, I saw fire in Gullu. He didn’t just win tasks, he won hearts. His journey defines what Roadies Double Cross is all about — unpredictability, loyalty, and passion. I couldn’t have asked for a better gang member in my debut season!”

Rannvijay Singha, Host and heart of Roadies, shared “This season had it all – drama, betrayal, redemption, and a finale that kept us on the edge. Gullu’s journey reminded everyone why Roadies isn’t just a show, it’s a battleground of transformation. Hats off to every contestant and Gang Leader who made this 20th season one for the history books!”

This landmark 20th season of MTV Roadies was packed with firsts, surprises, and unforgettable moments. Prince Narula and Rhea Chakraborty returned to continue their fierce reign as Gang Leaders, while the fiery Neha Dhupia made her much-awaited comeback, stirring up the game like only she can. The season marked a historic turn with the debut of Elvish Yadav as a Gang Leader, bringing in massive fanfare and strategy, and for the first time in Roadies history, a wildcard Gang Leader entry with Gautam Gulati stepping into the battlefield midway. While contestants making wildcard entries is nothing new, this bold twist of introducing a new Gang Leader mid-season added a whole new layer of chaos and unpredictability to the game.

MTV Roadies Double Cross lived up to its name with non-stop betrayals — contestants double crossing their alliances, their Gang Leaders, and even their closest bonds. From team swaps to intense face-offs, the season tested every Roadie on loyalty, grit, and presence of mind. Gang Leaders themselves were seen switching strategies, breaking alliances, and playing mind games like never before. The audition round saw a thrilling bidding war, while the mid-season brought some of the most explosive wildcard entries and re-entries, including Gullu’s comeback that changed the course of the finale.

As the 20th landmark season of MTV Roadies comes to a dramatic close, MTV Roadies Double Cross has proven once again why it continues to be the most iconic adventure reality show in the country. With never-seen-before twists, high-stake challenges, and intense emotional arcs, this season will go down in Roadies history as a true game-changer.
