Mallika Sherawat and Munawar Faruqui join The Traitors 2
The promo not only confirmed Traitors Season 2’s release date, but it also revealed two celebrities who will participate in the show. In the video, host Karan Johar says, “It has been a year, but some betrayals are still fresh. Betrayals that are so iconic, they need to be put in a museum of The Traitors. Here friendships were temporary, but chaos was permanent. They give other reality shows a reality check and turned trust issues into a trend. They all have PTSD – Post Traitors Stress Disorder. Don’t you miss this routine: murder, shock, deceit, and repeat. This year the palace will have 21 players, and the list is killer.”
Later, Karan introduces Mallika Sherawat as the first contestant, followed by Munawar Faruqui. KJo adds, “They won’t just play the game; they will also play with emotions, and one thing is guaranteed: everyone will get betrayed. The palace is craving for some new meat; get ready for a bigger round of betrayal because it’s dhokha time again.”
Other than Mallika and Munawar, SCREEN has learned the names of a few more contestants who are set to join The Traitors Season 2. According to our sources, Krystle D’Souza, Shalini Passi, Sanjay Kapoor, and Abhishek Malhan will also be seen in the upcoming season.
