Roadies, an adventure-based reality show, has been engaging viewers for almost two decades. The current season, Roadies Double Cross , or Roadies XX , the twentieth edition, is planned to feature a huge twist as a wildcard entry—not a contestant, but a gang leader—and the surprise entrance is none other than Gautam Gulati . This season stars Prince Narula , Neha Dhupia , Rhea Chakraborty , and Elvish Yadav , who debuts as a gang leader .
A video circulating on social media shows Rannvijay talking about the wildcard gang leader, saying, "For the first time in the history of Roadies, we have a wildcard gang leader." The video then changes to Gautam, who can be heard stating in the background, "Main woh khel khelta hoon, jismein jeet meri hoti hai, aur haar meri marzi," as he confidently strides towards the candidates, shocking everyone, even the gang leaders. While his face was not revealed, his voice indicated that it was certainly Gautam.
With Gautam's return, the show is set to have major twists. A source close to the show exclusively shared that with Gautam's return there will be new wildcard contestants on the show to join his gang. With the new gang emerging on the show, another twist awaits where the contestants will have a swap in the gangs. It will be interesting to see who goes in which gang after weeks of loyalty for their gang leaders.

Gautam was the gang leader in Roadies: Karm Ya Kaand, the show's 19th season, which was hosted by Sonu Sood and featured Prince Narula and Rhea Chakraborty. Gautam and Prince had a falling out during the nineteenth season, with multiple heated discussions that escalated to near-physical confrontations.
