The Traitors promo: Elvish Yadav, Apoorva Mukhija, Uorfi Javed, Raj Kundra join Karan Johar's reality show
Just imagine all the controversy makers you have heard about lately coming together under one roof to stir up even more controversy? Something similar will happen in a new show on Amazon Prime Video, hosted by filmmaker Karan Johar. On Friday, the makers of the show dropped a teaser giving a glimpse of what and who to expect in their adaptation of internationally acclaimed reality show The Traitors.
According to the makers, The Traitors will be 'the ultimate game of trust, betrayal and deception where alliances will be fragile and no one will be what they seem.' The game will see about 20 players coming together to compete for the coveted title and a prize pot of up to Rs 1 crore.
In the date announcement video, Karan Johar introduced a few players of the show. The filmmaker said, 'Munna Bhai died and you cried? Paatal Lok made you question Dharti Ke Log? Poor thing. And Farzi notes felt real? Just like your Farzi friends? You think you had your dose of betrayals? I only hope you can handle what's coming next.'
He added, 'Unexpected twists, merciless backstabbing, and the only thing you can trust us with is betrayal. Presenting The Traitors.'

Introducing the players, Karan Johar said, 'Yahan milega woh rebel jo kid hote hue bhi badi badi baatein karta hai (Here you'll meet a rebel—still a kid at heart, but full of drama),' hinting at Apoorva Mukhija. He continued, 'Kuch aise bhi hain jo sirf apne outfits ke sahare hi dikhte hain (And then there are those who rely solely on their outfits to make an impression),' alluding to Uorfi Javed. Referring to Shilpa Shetty's husband Raj Kundra, Karan added, 'Jo karte hain masks ke piche controversies hide. (Those who try to hide scandals behind masks.)'
Karan also hinted at YouTuber Elvish Yadav taking part in the show, saying, 'Not to forget those jo chuckles ke chakkar mein chakki pissing karne lage (who ended up in prison chasing a couple of chuckles.)' Without giving out names, the filmmaker further teased, 'And the one…. who's fast, sadly, only by name. And jiski life is fabulous because of me (And whose life is fabulous because of me.) Thank me later darling.' It could possibly be Seema Sajdeh or Kalyani Saha Chawla.
Karan then shares, 'I will be your host… where no one is anyone's sachcha dost. Welcome to The Traitors where trust ends and game begins. Rise and Shine… it's dhoka time.'
Though Karan Johar didn't name any contestants, Apoorva Mukhija, Elvish Yadav, Raj Kundra as well as Uorfi Javed shared the trailer of the show on their respective Instagram Stories confirming their participation in the show.
Sharing the video, Elvish wrote, ''Elvish bhai ko koi dhoka de sakta hai kya? (Can anyone betray Elvish?)' Apoorva's caption read, 'Prime Video is giving very kaleshi vibes.' Uorfi, who is collaborating with the streaming platform for the second time, shared, 'Prime Video and I are practically dating rn.' Meanwhile, Raj Kundra shared, 'Seems like today it's a trend to be two-faced.'
Every participant on the show has found themselves in the midst of controversy. Apoorva Mukhija recently drew attention for her appearance on Samay Raina's subscriber-only YouTube show, India's Got Latent. Elvish Yadav frequently makes headlines for his involvement in road accidents, snake venom-related incidents, and controversial online remarks. Uorfi Javed, meanwhile, regularly grabs attention for her bold, DIY fashion statements.
The reality show will stream from June 12 at 8 pm on Amazon Prime Video.

This actor was first choice for Ajay Devgn Phool aur Kaante, was removed from film due to..., now a superstar, name is....
Ajay Devgan, a superstar who has been making a name for himself on the silver screen for the past 33 years, began his film career with 'Phool Aur Kaante'. Ajay gained to stardom after starring in his debut film. His film was a hit, and he became a star overnight. Since then, his popularity in the profession has remained constant. However, few people are aware that Ajay grabbed his debut film, Phool Aur Kaante, after it was offered to a superstar. Let's identify who that star was. The Film Was First Offered To… The actor to whom the film was first offered was none other than the Khiladi of Bollywood. Akshay Kumar and Ajay Devgn began their careers together. While Phool Aur Kaante was released in 1991, Akshay's debut film, Saugandh , was also released the same year. However, Akshay's debut film may have been Phool Aur Kaante. Ajay was not the first choice for this as the makers had initially presented it to the superstar. When Akshay Revealed About Throwing Out From… In March 2020, during the trailer launch of his film Sooryavanshi , Akshay revealed the incident. He said, 'Hum dono ne, apna career saath mein hi shuru kiya tha. Aisa shuru kiya tha, ek hi film ke liye dono lade the. Pehli film jo humari thi, Phool Aur Kaante. Jisme pehle main tha phir mujhe dhakka maar ke ise le liya gaya tha.'' He further told that just the day before the shoot, he received a call and was told ''Bhai ap mat aana kisi aur ko le liya hai.'' As per reports, due to Akshay's commitments with other projects and production delays became a major concern for makers due to which the actor was replaced with Ajay Devgn. More about Phool Aur Kaante Renowned director Sandesh Kohli helmed Phool Aur Kaante, while Dinesh B Patel backed the project. Tamil actress Madhoo played the lead alongside Ajay Devgn in the film, which was released in 1991. Along with Ajay, this was Madhoo's debut Bollywood film. At its initial release, the film gained tremendous response at box office and both actors gained overnight stardom. The action-thriller, which was made on a budget of Rs 2.5 crore , became huge success, grossing Rs 11.50 crore at the domestic box office.

India's biggest flop film had Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan in lead roles, Aishwarya never worked with Abhishek again, the film was…
India's biggest flop film had Aishwarya Rai and Abhishek Bachchan in lead roles, Aishwarya never worked with Abhishek again, the film was… This film of a real life couple turned out to be a huge flop. Couldnt even recover its budget. Find the name inside. By Simran Keswani Advertisement In the fleeting world of cinema. There is nothing predictable. Sometimes, even the best cast, massively productive, and the couple who are widely hailed for their off-screen work can also fall flat at the box office. With this unpredictable industry where the fate of the film changes every Friday, it's impossible to figure out the building blocks of a blockbuster. One such tale is of a film that had high expectations with its romantic cast that's grounded in reality. However, what happened at the box office was something nobody saw coming. Advertisement === The film we are talking about is none other than Raavan. Mani Ratnam's film featured the real-life couple- Abhishek Bachchan and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan together. Therefore, its failure just didn't make sense to the movie critics and filmmakers. With the blend of deep emotions and drama. This film offered everything from the direction of the most respected filmmaker, a powerful star cast of real real-life couple to music by Oscar-winner A.R. Rahman, and lyrics by the legendary Gulzar, but still, the movie couldn't make a mark at the box office. Advertisement === However, Ravan wasn't the film where Abhishek and Aishwarya starred together. Before this, the duo came in films like Guru, Sarkar Raj, Dhai Akshar Prem Ke, and Kuch Naa Kaho. Their on-screen bond was widely hailed, and after tying the knot in 2007, which was the most-talked-about wedding of Bollywood, fans expected to see more of their magic on screen. The film's plot revolved around the crux of Ramayana, but with a modern twist, and it emphasises Ravana's perspective. Made on a budget of Rs. 55 crores, the film couldn't even cover its cost and collected only Rs. 39.37 crores in India and Rs. 49.57 crores worldwide. The movie's failure also marked the end of Abhishek and Aishwarya's on-screen collaborations to date. After Raavan, the couple never appeared in a film together again. Interestingly, in this film, Abhishek wasn't even the classic hero; he portrayed the role of an antagonist, which might've also challenged viewer expectations. Abhishek and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan are shining in their careers today. Aishwarya was last seen at the Cannes Film Festival 2025 with her daughter Aaradhya. Abhishek will be seen in Housefull 5.
