New Delhi, July 2 (IANS):  Want to be a rock star, and looking for a break? Well, you might just get lucky, as music channel MTV has launched a new reality show that will hunt for and select a music band.

The channel will conduct the auditioning in Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata and Bangalore. The show "Kurkure Desi Beats Rock On With MTV", will be judged by singer Kailash Kher, composer Ram Sampath and VJ Nikhil Chinappa.
