Castrol, India’s leading automotive and industrial lubricant company, today announced the telecast of a reality show for mechanics in India, as part of its Castrol Super Mechanic Contest. The four-part show hosted by prominent television actor Ravi Dubey will document the journey of 16 car and bike mechanics who have battled to win the title of Castrol Super Mechanic 2019.
For the first time ever on Indian television, audiences across the country will now witness mechanics taking part in a reality show. The show gives shortlisted mechanics an opportunity to be featured on Indian television testing their knowledge, mettle and skills.
Television actor Ravi Dubey, host of Castrol Super Mechanic Contest, said, “I am honoured to be a part of this wonderful initiative by Castrol India. It has been an amazing experience for me to interact with the mechanics during the show, and I am sure all the viewers will enjoy this one of a kind competition as well!”
The third edition of the Castrol Super Mechanic Contest saw a record participation of over 1.27 lakh mechanics across the country in 2019. As part of this initiative, Castrol India also conducted masterclass sessions in 20 cities which skilled over 6,000 mechanics in a curriculum that was endorsed by Automotive Skill Development Council. They were trained on new-age vehicle diagnostics, digital tools for next-gen vehicles and BS VI technology among other automotive topics.
