Roadies voted out: Suchit and Mohit
MTV Roadies 8 winner: Anchal
Ratings and Reception
MTV Roadies 8 has received mainly positive reviews and had the peak TRP of 3.25/5, however ratings began to decline after roadies'trip' to Brazil as the tasks became more and more awkward involving nudity etc. This enraged many audience members and created an outrage among viewers. Currently MTV roadies 8 has only managed to reach 2.17 rating out of 5 according to the Indian rating system.Post competition
Those being voted out many contestants including Prachi Agarwal gained much fame among Facebook and Twitter groups and have been highly appreciated by the audience. However, others candidates which were considered foul mouthed by majority of the viewers have received a very negative response. Renee, Anchal, Dev and Avatar are some of them. The viewers commenting on their disappointing act on the show have made many Facebook hate pages. Raghu has also criticized these participants in many graveyard episodes.Suraj a.k.a. Nagesh has also received a very critical review after his vote-out, from Raghu and Rannvijay in a graveyard episode due to his manoeuvre of faking his identity throughout the show without seeking attention .In the last week of roadies Suraj was blasted by Raghu and Rajiv for faking his identity.He himself agreed to the fact that he lied regarding his mothers death to get into the show.He was humiliated by comparing him with Donkey.
Renee Dhyani who repeated abused other contestants pleaded everyone to forgive her explaining that she was raised like a boy and only abused people to get attention.
Critical Reception of the WINNER
Anchal khuranna who is the second female roadies winner yet has been very deeply criticized by the audience after her win. The roadies grand finale II episode got the least rating so far which was only 1.6/5 and has been credited as the worst roadies episode to date. The viewers were appalled to see no task in deciding the winner like the previous season and it became widely believed that Anchal khuranna only won as a result of the sympathy vote to make a girl win Roadies. She's still ridiculed on many Facebook and Twitter groups and pages with the audience crying hoarse that she didn't deserve to win the show.Aanchal Khurana also declared that not only boys ,girls also can win the show when she was declared the winner.She was known in the show for abusing the contestants in the show along with Renee. But Raghu and Raajiv said that most of the people dont know how it is difficult to get to the Finale and therefore it is just that Aanchal wins.the Indian tribune is reported to have said about the winner:
MTV Roadies Season 8 had a very disappointing end on the internet and for TV audience. Masses were not happy with the finale, and didn't think that Aanchal deserved to win.
The dissatisfied viewers went full throttle on the social networking sites, posting comments on their own profiles as well as the MTV Roadies page.
The grand finale, as and when it was being telecast, got a flurry of comments on Twitter and Facebook- with most people ranting about how big a let down this season has turned out to be. As soon as the episodes were uploaded on YouTube, there were people commenting on the videos and they clearly were not too happy.
