THE ROADIES RANTER

Vishal Chopra, 24, didn’t make it past the auditions for MTV Roadies. So, the Chandigarh boy went home and created a video blog, ranting about how the show sucked, the judges were awful and had broken his heart.

The video went viral — and he got a call from MTV. They signed Vishal on as ‘Doctor VC’. His job? To create official spoof videos reviewing each episode of Roadies Season 9.

Last year, he wanted a switch and heard that radio channel 104.8 FM was looking for radio jockeys, so he called their national programming head, put on his best RJ voice and said, “Hi, mera naam hai Doctor VC, aur agar aapko meri aawaz pasand ayi to batao kab se RJing shuru karoon?” He’s been an RJ there ever since.

“You have to be confident. Don’t overthink it; just do it,” he says.
