Filmmaker Karan Johar is all set to host The Traitors, the Indian adaptation of the internationally acclaimed reality series. The trailer for the show was unveiled today, revealing a diverse lineup of celebrity contestants including Apoorva Mukhija, Uorfi Javed, Raj Kundra, and others. At the trailer launch event of The Traitors, Karan Johar shared that his first reaction upon being approached to host the show was shaped by his own experiences of being surrounded by 'traitors'. He felt that, given his familiarity with betrayals and traitors, he would be the perfect fit to lead a show like The Traitors. At the trailer launch, Karan Johar was asked what was the first thing that crossed his mind when he was approached to host the show. In response, he said, 'Traitors have always been a part of my life. We're all in an industry where trust is rare and dhokha is everywhere. One evening, Nikhil Madhok (Head of Originals at Prime Video India) came home and said, 'I have something exciting to tell you'. He said, 'It's a show called The Traitors and we want you to host it'. I was like, 'Who else but me can host a show called The Traitors?'" He said that he went and watched the international formats of the show, which are already 'cult' and hugely popular. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mamaraazzi (@mamaraazzi) 'I was absolutely enthralled, invested, engaged, and mesmerised by the sheer craziness of this supremely clever format. It was different from every other reality show that is on any kind of platform," he said. He said that The Traitors is different from other reality shows, and on doesn't need to be inauthentic. Whereas, he pointed out that in many reality shows, people cry when they don't feel like crying, laugh when they don't feel like laughing. 'But here, there's none of that. It's all actually real-time drama and you're reacting authentically. There's no put-on. Everyone is being an authentic self. You're really feeling betrayed. You're really feeling hurt. You're really feeling happy or empowered. You basically are the most authentic self of yourself — and I think that's what really excited me. It's absolutely raw," he said. List Of The Traitor Contestants The first season of the reality series 'The Traitors', will feature an explosive mix of 20 celebrities, including Anshula Kapoor, Apoorva Mukhija, Ashish Vidyarthi, Elnaaz Nourouzi, Harsh Gujral, Jannat Zubair, Janvi Gaur, Jasmin Bhasin, Karan Kundrra, Lakshmi Manchu, Maheep Kapoor, Mukesh Chhabra, Nikita Luther, Purav Jha, Raftaar, Raj Kundra, Sahil Salathia, Sudhanshu Pandey, Sufi Motiwala, and Uorfi Javed.
