The Traitors: OTT platform, release date, full list of contestants and more about Karan Johar’s reality show
Karan Johar is back with a thrilling reality show where celebrities play a high-stakes game of trust, lies, and betrayal - some are traitors, others are faithfuls, and only one side takes the prize.
Reality TV in India just got a serious twist. It’s about lies, mind games, and big money. Karan Johar is bringing the international reality hit The Traitors to Indian screens, and it’s all set to stream on Amazon Prime Video starting June 12, 2025. Shot in the stunning Suryagarh Palace of Jaisalmer, new episodes of the show will drop every Thursday on your small screens.
So, what’s ‘The Traitors’ about?
If you’ve seen Bigg Boss, forget that. The Traitors is not about shouting or tasks, it’s a psychological thriller in reality show format. The idea is simple but intense: 20 people, most of them celebrities, live together in a lavish palace. Among them are a few "traitors" secretly picked by Karan Johar himself. The rest are called "faithfuls."
Every night, the traitors secretly eliminate one person, and every day, the whole group meets to vote and try to banish someone they think is a traitor. The twist? If the traitors make it to the end without getting caught, they take home the prize money. But if the faithfuls figure them out and vote them out, the prize goes to the remaining faithful.
