Businessman and celebrity spouse Raj Kundra is stepping into the spotlight like never before — not as an entrepreneur, but as a reality TV star. Kundra is all set to make his debut as a contestant on The Traitors, Prime Video’s Indian adaptation of the globally hit psychological reality series. Hosted by Bollywood’s own Karan Johar, the show promises betrayal, alliances, and mind games set against the opulent backdrop of Rajasthan’s Suryagarh Palace.
Raj Kundra Bags Highest Paycheck on Show
Kundra isn’t just joining the cast — he’s reportedly the highest-paid participant on the show, creating major buzz even before the series airs. His entry has piqued curiosity for multiple reasons. Often seen masked at public events, Raj joked that the mystery around his persona might work in his favour. “Whenever I’ve worn a mask, people wondered what I was hiding. That mystery might just help me win this game,” he said at the trailer launch.

'Nepo-Husband' Card Activated
In a candid and cheeky moment, Kundra admitted he plans to make full use of his connection to Bollywood royalty. “Since its Karan Johar hosting, I’m definitely pulling out the ‘nepo-husband’ card,” he laughed, referring to his wife, actress Shilpa Shetty.
Star-Studded Cast, Killer Twists
Kundra will be up against a diverse set of contestants, including Anshula Kapoor, Uorfi Javed, Raftaar, Karan Kundrra, Jasmine Bhasin, and more. The show follows a format where ‘innocents’ must expose the hidden ‘traitors’ among them, making for a thrilling weekly watch.
Anshula Kapoor also stirred conversation with her bold claim: “Acting toh mere khoon mein hai na.”
The Traitors India premieres June 12, with new episodes dropping every Thursday at 8 PM. With Raj Kundra’s enigmatic presence and KJo’s signature drama, this show promises to be reality TV gold.
