Mumbai: HistoryTV18 has announced season four of "#RoadTrippinwithRnM" featuring Rocky Singh and Mayur Sharma, starting 5 July. The social media-focused digital franchise shows real-time travel experiences through road trips across several Indian states. For the new season, the two travellers, Rocky and Mayur, are packing their bags for a road trip through the western state of Gujarat.
Even as the Covid-19 vaccination gains momentum and restrictions ease across India, road trips remain the preferred mode of leisure travel. HistoryTV18 spotted the trend early on, creating an innovative, first-of-its-kind, and made-for-the-times format, the channel said in a statement. The first three road trips of the innovative, online travel series set new benchmarks of success with more than 80 million views and 250 million impressions, it added.
The series has recently won Gold for 'Best Acting/Anchoring/Content Delivery' by Rocky and Mayur at this year’s vIDEA - Video Media Awards and Summit 2021.
“What makes this travelogue compelling is the sheer spontaneity and authenticity of the format, in addition to the rich content that draws upon India’s incredible diversity and heritage and the personalities of our travellers," A+E Networks | TV18's president - content & communication, Arun Thapar said. "The journeys and experiences represent possibility, hope and fuel the desire to look further and beyond the obvious and the mundane. I believe that just as Rocky and Mayur can hardly wait to hit the road again, our viewers too look forward to being part of these road trips. And so, the show’s following has kept growing. Gujarat is rich with histories, cultures, and natural wonders… This land of spectacular, varied landscapes, architecture, cuisines, and people has much to offer travellers throughout the year. Season four is a chance to experience Gujarat in the Monsoon, so it’s a definite must-follow.”
Itching to get back to what he does best, Rocky said he “cannot wait to hit the road and take on the open road!” and on the other hand, Mayur said he is looking forward to having “the scrumptious Gujarati food."
