Fans flood Anshula Kapoor's DMs asking if The Traitors is scripted. Here's what she said
The new reality show The Traitors, streaming on Prime Video, has quickly captured viewers' attention. Among the contestants is actor Arjun Kapoor's sister Anshula Kapoor, who recently addressed a wave of DMs asking if the show is scripted. Here's what the content creator said. (Also read: Sahil Salathia hits out at Elnaaz Norouzi for eliminating him on The Traitors: 'I have been hurting for months') On Tuesday, Anshula took to her Instagram account and posted a candid video clarifying whether the Karan Johar-hosted show is scripted. Anshula, in her video, said, "Is The Traitors scripted? How can this be the number one DM in my DMs right now? Traitors is not scripted. There was not 1% of a script given to any of the 20 participants of this show. First, let's start with everything that went down to get us to start filming that first episode. There was so much secrecy." "We weren't told who our fellow participants would be. When we were flying from Bombay also to shoot for this, I think Elnaz, Ashish ji, Sufi, and Jannat were on my flight. To keep it as secret as possible, even during the check-in process at the airport, we were given different slots. We were given a shadow—our own personal valet," she added. A post shared by Anshula Kapoor (@anshulakapoor) Anshula further adds that the makers had divided the 20 participants into two different groups, who were staying in different hotels. Two days before the filming, they were all sent from Jodhpur to Jaisalmer. 'And at this hotel, while we were getting checked in, they literally were like, 'You will have your phone for like three hours, and then tonight somebody's going to come.' Not just phones, but they took all the electronic equipment. It was all about isolation, because they didn't want us to form alliances outside the show. Anshula further said that while each episode of The Traitors is only about an hour long, the contestants were actually shooting for 16 to 18 hours a day. The show is the Indian edition of the globally popular reality show, co-produced by BBC Studios India and All3Media International. It features 20 celebrities, including Jannat Zubair, Uorfi Javed, Maheep and Anshula Kapoor, Raftaar, Apoorva Mukhija, Sufi Motiwala, Elnaaz, Purav Jha, Ashish Vidyarthi, Jasmine Bhasin and others. Sahil Salathia, Karan Kundrra, Raj Kundra, and Lakshmi Manchu have already been eliminated. The show airs on Prime Video, with new episodes dropping every Thursday a 8 PM.

Sahil Salathia hits out at Elnaaz Norouzi for eliminating him on The Traitors: ‘I have been hurting for months'
Actor Sahil Salathia was the first to be eliminated from the reality show The Traitors, after traitors Elnaaz Norouzi, Raj Kundra, and Purav Jha selected him for 'murder' in the opening episode. The twist deeply affected Sahil, who later took to Instagram to express his shock and disappointment with Elnaaz, whom he described as a close friend. Days after the episode aired on Amazon Prime Video, Sahil shared a series of emotional videos on his Instagram account, calling out Elnaaz for what he felt was a personal betrayal. 'What did Elnaaz gain by killing her best friend of eight years in episode one, over 17 other contestants?' he questioned. Sahil went on to say, 'I know people might think I'm being dramatic—maybe I am, maybe I'm still that emotional kid, and I want to keep that child alive. But if anyone else had done this, it wouldn't have hurt as much.' His candid reaction has stirred conversations among fans of the show about loyalty and strategy in the high-stakes game. A post shared by Sahil Salathia (@sahilgsalathia) Sahil further said, 'You have changed me as a person. You have changed how I look at people. And congratulations to you, you have succeeded. You have lost in life, but I hope you win this show. You deserve to win every reality show, anybody who comes with this moral compass.' Another contestant from the show, 21-year-old fashion commentator Sufi Motiwala, commented on his post and said, "Sahil, it's just a game ya. Wish you stayed longer but baby it's a game anyone would've had to take their friend out to build trust and you can clearly see that Raj and Purav overwhelm her and she's denying it baby. I'm so sorry I want everyone to be friends (sic)". "And also, your fits kind of shined too hard, so we had to take you out, (sic)" Sufi added in jest. However, the fans have mixed reactions to Sahil's outburst. Some fans asked why he didn't choose his best friend Elnaaz in the first episode when Karan Johar asked to select one person they trust the most. Sahil chose Uorfi instead, while Elnaaz was left out in the end. A fan pointed it out and wrote, 'Then why didn't you choose her in the first place, man.' Another fan said, "Isn't that the real name of the show 'TRAITORS.'? Bro, you actually got to play the game in real sense. The format, the show is about being a Traitor to someone. Not sure what your expectations were when you signed up for it. Have a sportsman spirit buddy! (sic)". A user supported Sahil and said, "Please ignore people who don't know your worth. Hugs for you, brother". Another commented, "The industry requires thick skin and I know how heartbreaking it can be - especially when your close ones stab you, but you are you and that's your superpower - onwards and upwards. Sending you lots of love (sic)" The Traitors, hosted by Karan Johar, is the Indian edition of the globally popular reality show, co-produced by BBC Studios India and All3Media International. It features 20 celebrities, including Jannat Zubair, Uorfi Javed, Maheep and Anshula Kapoor, Raftaar, Apoorva Mukhija, Sufi Motiwala, Elnaaz, Purav Jha, Ashish Vidyarthi, Jasmine Bhasin and others. Apart from Sahil, Karan Kundrra, Raj Kundra, and Lakshmi Manchu have already been eliminated. The show airs exclusively on Prime Video, with new episodes dropping every Thursday.

Apoorva Mukhija calls Uorfi Javed deluded, hits back at her The Traitors jibe: 'Hum dono ek level ke galeech hain'
Content creator Apoorva Mukhija and internet sensation Uorfi Javed are currently seen on the reality game show The Traitors. In just three episodes, the duo have stirred up intense drama with their feud. Now, Apoorva has opened up about what went on behind the scenes and hit back at Uorfi for her comment, 'Tum mere level ki nahi ho (You're not on my level)." (Also Read: The Traitors contestants: From Apoorva Mukhija to Raftaar, full list of 20 'cunning players' on Karan Johar's show) In her recent YouTube video, Apoorva recalled how she hadn't done any movies or anything big for people to know her when she shot for The Traitors, while everyone else in the cast was well-known. She recalled how she met Uorfi and Jannat Zubair in the car for the first time and added, "I had seen Uorfi's show Follow Karlo Yaar, so I knew what she really thinks of influencers. That's why I had a feeling our vibes weren't going to match. I knew that if I were Maheep Kapoor, she would respect me. But if I'm just an influencer who has reached here by creating her own content independently, then why would she respect me?" Apoorva went on to share that this made her realise she and Uorfi were unlikely to get along on the show. Recalling their argument, Apoorva opened up about what happened behind the scenes. She revealed that she had been feeling extremely anxious about her mother, as she had entered the show after a fight with her parents and hadn't informed them that she'd be unavailable and without her phone. When she requested the production team for a phone call, they refused, leaving her in tears. Apoorva added that just before Uorfi approached her to ask why she was crying, she had already explained the situation to Jannat and didn't want to repeat it. She recalled that Uorfi got upset when Apoorva refused to talk and got angry. "**I couldn't care less that Uorfi Javed doesn't like me. You don't see this in the show, but at one point, Uorfi called me and said, 'B*******d Apoorva, come here.' I responded, 'Uorfi, calm down,' and she completely lost it. She screamed in my face, 'Do you even know who you're talking to? Am I on your level to be spoken to like this? You have no status to talk to me that way.' After that, I started crying. Uorfi, hum dono ek level ke galeech hain babe (Uorfi, both of us are equally messed up, babe—no one is above the other). The only level where you're ahead of me is that you're more deluded than I am. So yes, I was really upset," she added. Hosted by Karan Johar, The Traitors is the Indian adaptation of the internationally acclaimed reality show, produced in collaboration with All3Media International and BBC Studios India Production. The show features 20 celebrities, including Jannat Zubair, Maheep Kapoor, Anshula Kapoor, Uorfi Javed, Apoorva Mukhija, Sufi Motiwala, Elnaaz, Purav Jha, Ashish Vidyarthi, Jasmine Bhasin and others. Karan Kundrra, Raj Kundra and Lakshmi Manchu have already been evicted from the show. It is available to watch on Prime Video, with new episodes releasing every Thursday.
