Start your engines as the weekends are set to explode with India’s biggest stunt biking reality series on TV. A first of its kind show that will put 8 boys & 4 girls in a Stunt Academy where they will train & compete in the most dare devil bike stunts. Hosted by MTV VJ Deepti Gujral, Pulsar MTV Stunt Mania brings in India’s foremost action director [the name behind Bollywood’s biggest action films including Dhoom, Dhoom 2, Race, Luck who’s trained some of the industry’s biggest names like Abhishek Bachchan, Imran Khan, Sanjay Dutt, Aishwarya Rai, Saif Ali Khan, Hrithik Roshan, John Abraham, Bipasha Basu] Alan Amin. Alan plays mentor & judge on the show as Stunt Guru and the man between the contestants and the booty, namely; being crowned ‘Stunt God of India’, winning a specially customized one of a kind Pulsar Chrome bike, a chance to feature in a Pulsar commercial and potentially 5lakhs cash.

The show is mounted on a massive scale and features stunts involving a BEST bus, a train, truck, cars, camels and a helicopter. The contestants including the 4 girls who hail from all over the country [from Bhopal, Saharanpur, Ludhiana, Pune and more], have challenged all the elements with their Pulsars including air, earth, wind, fire, water. The Stunt Academy features a super pimped up Base Camp that houses the contestants, Alan’s den – the Master Garage, where all the briefings & burnouts [eliminations] happen besides Ground Zero [a specially created road/ area where the stunts are executed]. There are 2 stunts performed by the teams in every episode including 1 skill based stunt linked to learning how to do a wheelie, stoppie, burnout, tank stand and more and 1 courage based task that’s linked to their survival and is on a massive scale. There are some really dramatic moments including things like a dance performance featuring hip hop, bhangra and bharat natyam with the bike as your dance partner.

There are several other firsts on the show including a shoot pattern that’s entirely new, lots of animation that’s not been tried before and the perfect marriage of man/ woman and machine in an adrenaline pumping series. They say people are like bikes, each is customized a bit differently. Meet our cast: Firdoz Shaikh, Vartika Pande, Smitha Gondkar, Prabhupal Singh Mathadu (all from Pune), Umair and Syed Adil Kazmi (both from Bhopal), Javed Gauri (Saharanpur), Shirin Solomon (Navi Mumbai), Kashif Aslam (Bangalore), Sachin Sihag (Chandigarh), Sourabh Handa (Ludhiana) and Sunny Matharu (Delhi). Riding faster than everyone else only guarantees you’ll ride alone! Safety has been one critical piece in terms of messaging that’s weaved into the episodes. In fact, that’s why there’s a special “Behind the Scenes/ Making of Stunt Mania” that’s been made to showcase the kind of safety precautions were taken for the show and tips on safety being offered on the show right from helmets to bike maintenance, etc.
