Anshula Kapoor accuses ‘chachi' Maheep Kapoor of being a ‘traitor' as familial bond weakens on Karan Johar's show: ‘If I was a traitor, I wouldn't be dumb about it'
Karan Johar's new reality show The Traitors is streaming on Amazon Prime Video, and the contestants have already eliminated a couple of suspected traitors – including Raj Kundra. The way the game works is that the 'Innocents' have to identify the 'Traitors' and vote them out of the house. After three episodes, there are already some cracks in the alliances and one of the strongest teams on the show, that of Maheep Kapoor and her niece Anshula, is starting to fall apart. Spoilers ahead By the third episode, Raj Kundra, Sahil Salathia, and Lakshmi Manchu are already eliminated from the game. Two have been 'murdered' by the 'traitors' and one was eliminated by 'innocents'. Anshula, who showed blind faith in her chachi (aunt) Maheep in the first episode, is visibly questioning her choices. In the third episode, Anshula was vocal about her mistrust towards Maheep and said, 'I have a feeling it's you (traitor).' She added, 'You already know that a lot of people think you are the traitor. The only reason why I think it's you is because you told me earlier that until you are in the competition, you won't let anyone kick me out. I mean, how could you say that with so much confidence?'

She said, 'Last night I packed my bags, and I knew that people were going to evict me today. The traitors know that if I were one of them, I would never let go of you because I am your chachi. If I were a traitor, I wouldn't be dumb about it and tell you that you're safe. What do I care?' Even though the internal dispute seems to be resolved, it reignites itself during the 'circle of shaq' where all contestants vote out a 'traitor' based on their suspicion. Here too, Anshula brought up her mistrust towards Maheep and recalled the same conversation. Maheep, again, clarified her stance but Anshula appeared unconvinced. Anshula told everyone about Maheep's commitment of keeping her in the game and expresseed her doubts that Maheep might be a traitor. However, during the voting, she supported Maheep and voted against Karan Kundrra, who was then eliminated. The show has already revealed the 'traitors' and Maheep isn't one of them so far. Hosted by Karan Johar, The Traitors was released on Prime Video on June 12, and the makers will be dropping new episodes every Thursday.

While multiplexes and premium screens in #Mumbai, #Delhi, #NCR, #Bengaluru and #Pune were the best-performing centres, several key centres like #Kolkata, #Hyderabad, #Ahmedabad, #Lucknow, #Bhopal and #Chandigarh witnessed marked improvement on Sunday.'
