Ayushmann Khurrana in an interview said: "I was 19 when I started my journey with Roadies and became an actor at 27. It took me eight years to get a breakthrough. If I would’ve straightaway gone to become an actor at 19, I wouldn’t have left an impact." During 'Meri Pyaari Bindu' promotions in May 2017, Ayushmann in an interview spoke about Roadies and said: "Some of them [Roadies contestants] are truly adventurous, but others are absolute jerks. It's a mixed bag. The change was evident, even when I turned host for them," the actor was quoted by Mid-Day.

Further adding on, he said: "They deliberately choose vulnerable people so that friction is inevitable. During my season, we were eight nerds who went to National Law School and London School of Economics after the show. We were responsible. Thus, nobody watched our show. That triggered them to pick backbenchers and notorious people instead."

He concluded by saying: "I did Roadies to become an actor. Now that I am here, I would never want to go back," as told to Mid-Day.
