Delhi boy Anwar Syed won the MTV Roadies 7 title in a gritty finale on April 4. IBNMovies spoke to the 24-year-old on his experience on the show, and also his future plans. Excerpts:
Is it a big thing to be a Roadies winner?
The magnitude of the entire situation is still sinking in. From being a college student to being a Roadies winner – it's a happy transition.
Did you always think you would win?
I had come in with a mindset to win. I knew that I had all the attributes to win, like physical endurance, mental toughness, ability to overcome fear and to keep going in all circumstances.
How difficult was the final task in your road to victory?
After the task was explained to us, I knew it required a lot of muscle power. I thought that I would be better at it than anybody else. I realised that your aim, speed, stamina is very important. But I must say that Zaid (the other finalist) gave an amazing fight. I admire him for it.
Who were your arch rivals on the show?
I think the trio of Mohit Malik, Amritpal Singh and Zaid Bin Nazir – ever since the show started. They were a group of friends. I got very little support on the show initially.
Are you very physical in real life?
Yes, I play a lot of sports. I was the cricket captain in my college. It's not like I'm a bodybuilder, but I like being fit.
Did you miss Raghu on the show?
Audiences feel that after he went, the charm was lost. Raghu brought along his own stamp and has a loyal fanbase. But I think Roadies was good with Rannvijay, too.
You are an MBA from XLRI, Jamshedpur. After Roadies 7, what are your future plans?
I've majored in Finance and Marketing, and I already have a job in place. After the Roadies victory, I have two career options. I have not decided yet.
Have you been offered Bigg Boss or any other TV show? What about a film?
Not yet. I will be considering whatever quality work I'm offered.
