The Traitors: Maheep Kapoor Calls Karan Johar's Show 'Mentally, Physically' Tiring
Last Updated:
Maheep Kapoor said it is easy for viewers to judge the contestants as they already know who the traitors are.
Week 2 of Prime Video's The Traitors was a wild ride, packed with twists, turns, and explosive exits. Maheep Kapoor and Ashish Vidyarthi were voted out in a fiery Circle of Shaq, the Traitors murdered Mukesh Chhabra, and Raftaar's shocking elimination followed a full-blown meltdown from Sufi Motiwala.
While talking about the intense experience on the show, Maheep Kapoor said, 'We were mentally and physically very tired. And I've said it before, and I'm saying it again. It's very easy to sit in your living room and switch on the TV, and say… You guys know who the Traitors are, we didn't. It's very convenient to say, 'What are they doing? Why are they doing that?' It's a mind game. It's all psychological."
Speaking about his shocking exit from the show, Raftaar added, 'I am toh quite happy, matlab yeh pehla aisa show hai, jisme exit hona bhi ijjat vali baat hai 'Yeh toh bada smart tha, isko nikalna zaroori tha.' Toh, it is a great thing. That is the format of the show I like."
Ashish Vidhyarthi said, 'Yeh ek game hai, lekin yeh real life ko mimic karta hai. Real life mein bhi hum sochte hain ki hum samajdaar hain, lekin humein khud nahi pata chalta kab hum bhed chaal ka hissa ban jaate hain. So what you see in Traitors iss jo duniya me ho raha hai ki aapko lagta hai ki aap bohot samajhdar hai. And that's when the individual realises. So it was a masterclass in life for me."
Reflecting on his experience on the show, Mukesh Chhabra said, 'Yeh reality show sabse alag hai. Jaise inhone show plan kiya hai, woh hi kamal ka hai. Jiske saath baith kar main abhi khana kha raha hoon, woh hi agle pal meri opinion badal deta hai, sirf ek plate lene jaate hi. Peeche mudh ke dekho toh sab badal chuka hota hai. Har second log ek doosre ke baare mein apna opinion badal rahe hain, wahi toh is show ka asli khel hai."
Produced by BBC Studios India Productions, Prime Video brings the Indian adaptation of IDTV's BAFTA and Emmy award-winning global format, The Traitors, in collaboration with All3Media International.

Lakshmi Manchu says art and politics should be kept separate amid Sardaar Ji 3 row
Actor Lakshmi Manchu recently voiced her opposition to the backlash on the casting of Pakistani actors in Indian cinema and emphasised that art should not be entangled with politics. This comes amid backlash over two recent Bollywood films, including 'Abir Gulaal' and 'Sardaar Ji 3.'In a conversation with Hindustan Times, the actor was asked about her opinion on calls to ban such films released in India. She replied, 'Don't politicise art. Go after the people who are causing the trouble. You can't just throw a blanket ban on everybody and say no (you can't work with them). Where is our growth? Where is our warmth? As Indians, we welcomed all these people with open hearts.'advertisementCurrently, Diljit Dosanjh's film is under fire for sharing the screen with Pakistani actor Hania Aamir. Earlier, in March, Vaani Kapoor was under fire for featuring alongside Fawad Khan in 'Abir Gulaal'. Manchu further added, 'Where are our hearts now? Politics is one way, but why are cattle herding and blanketing? Why are they going after an actor? What threat are they to India, and banning their Instagram? Like how insecure are you? Rather than a divide and rule policy, we need to find ways around how we can find common ground and fight together against the common enemy.'Meanwhile, the actor recently featured in Prime Video's latest reality show, 'The Traitors' which is hosted by Karan Johar.- EndsMust Watch
