Speaking about the show, Karan Johar said, "The Traitors is one of the most watched reality series, with its popularity growing all over the world as the audience laps up the riveting drama and entertainment." After seeing the UK and US versions, I've become an obsessive admirer of the concept and admire Claudia Winkleman and Alan Cumming, who host their respective shows with composure and dramatic theatrics that keep you on the edge of your seat. I'm quite excited to take on the role of host for the show's Indian rendition."

The Traitors is about trust and deception. The contestants of the game reality show will have to set strategies as they fight for a hefty prize money. It is an unscripted reality show that tests contestants' brains, humour, and strategic prowess. 20 participants will be categorized in two teams loyal and traitors, where the latter team must eliminate the innocents.

Karan Johar is currently shooting in Jaisalmer to host The Traitors. He has previously hosted Bigg Boss OTT 1 and his talk show Koffee with Karan.
