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?'

Maheep was taken aback by this accusation and tried to explain her statement. 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.

Married to actress , Raj appeared completely at ease with his wife's celeb status. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Speaking to Bombay Times about the male ego and power dynamics in celebrity relationships, Raj said, 'I say it with pride — Shilpa's success is our success. I've never been insecure about her spotlight. If anything, it inspires me. Real strength in a man comes from being secure enough to lift others — especially your partner — without feeling smaller in the process. That's not ego-less, that's evolved love.' 'There was anger, hurt and confusion, but also deep self-reflection' Over the last few years, Raj has faced legal and public scrutiny. In July 2021, he was arrested by the Mumbai Police for allegedly producing and distributing adult content via an app. He spent 63 days in Arthur Road Jail before being granted bail in September 2021. Reflecting on that period, he shared, 'Those were some of the darkest times of my life. There was anger, hurt and confusion, but also deep self-reflection. I could've let that chapter define me, but I chose instead to learn from it. The truth has its own timeline, and I've made peace with that. My focus now is to move forward with clarity, creativity and courage.' Raj Kundra 'My kids gave me reason to smile when I felt like disappearing' Raj's legal battle is far from over. While he remains out on bail, the case is still under trial. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) is also investigating him for alleged money laundering and has reportedly attached assets worth nearly Rs 98 crore. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Such a phase, he says, tests every bond in his life. 'Some friendships vanished overnight, others got stronger than ever. But the real pain was watching my loved ones suffer because of my headlines. That guilt stays with you. And yet, the love they gave me during that storm is what saved me. You realise who your tribe is, and you never take them for granted again,' he said, adding, 'Shilpa stood by me with grace and resilience, even when it would've been easier to walk away. My kids gave me reason to smile when I felt like disappearing. That kind of unconditional support rewires your soul.' The businessman, who is also dabbling in acting, will be seen in the Punjabi film Mehar. Talking about wanting to be a part of compelling content, he said, 'I'm not chasing stardom — I'm chasing stories.'
