Gullu’s glory

Rannvijay Singha-hosted ‘MTV Roadies Double Cross’ has concluded, with Kushal Tanwar — popularly known as Gullu — emerging as the winner. A member of Elvish Yadav’s gang, Gullu clinched the title after a powerful wildcard comeback and a performance that stood out for its intensity and grit.

Originally part of Elvish’s gang, Gullu was eliminated early in the season. However, he re-entered the show as a wildcard contestant under Gautam Gulati’s leadership. His game-changing moment came when, after winning the ticket to the finale, he was offered the opportunity to double-cross his current gang leader. Choosing loyalty, Gullu returned to Elvish’s gang, leaving Gautam’s side behind.

The finale saw Hartaaj Singh Gill, from Prince Narula’s gang, finish as the first runner-up.

Reflecting on his victory, 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.”

He added, “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.”

Gang leader Elvish Yadav praised Tanwar’s journey, saying, “From Day 1, I saw fire in Gullu. He didn’t just win tasks, he won hearts. His journey defines.”
