Hosted by Karan Johar, The Traitors India series has finally released its first episode on Amazon Prime Video. The show follows a group of celebrity contestants competing against each other to win a big cash prize. Set in a stunning mansion, the participants need to play dark, twisted mind games to stay till the end. Among them are ‘Faithful’ who must unite to throw the ‘Traitors’ out of the game and vice versa. The trailer promised an engaging watch but did the first episode set the same tone for the rest of the show? Karan Johar’s much-anticipated show has left viewers confused. Here’s what reviews reveal about The Traitors India.

@PrimeVideoIN @KaranJohar #TheTraitorsindia

What the f**k is this show, man??
No concept, no talent

You wanted to eliminate a contestant on the basis of Trust @_iamnaaz_ and ended up eliminating one of her choices 😂😂😂

It’s like a failed student failing other one.😂😂

The Traitors Season 1 Episode 1 @PrimeVideoIN First impression: A Promising Start.

I am such a slut for drama (call it Bigg Boss hangover) so I was eagerly looking forward to this. KJo is trying hard to stay professional and stay distant from controversy (thus far).

#TheTraitorsOnPrime is just Mafia/Werewolf that grew up in a KJo world: Betrayal but with lots of drama, and glamour

Rebel kid in traitors is damm good. I also like raftaar. Raj Kundra over played it. Karan Kundra was just unfortunate. Also that eleza girl gives vitchy vibes all over. Jas is either too smart or dumb .

Naa it’s fun. Mind games khelte hain traitors. Better than bigg boss. Plus it has only 10 epsiodes. So daily daily nahi aata. Every Thursday one episode. Nice and fast paced.
