The Traitors announces new spin-off in huge global expansion for hit BBC show
The Traitors is expanding its global reach with an exciting new spin-off, as an Indian version of the hit show is set to air next year. Following its huge success in the UK and various international versions in Australia, the US, Canada, New Zealand, and Sweden, the show is now heading to Asia.
Acclaimed director Karan Johar, known for his work on Hindi-language films like My Name is Khan and Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani, will host the Indian version. The show's description reads: "Vying for the grand cash prize, 20 players will compete in the ultimate game of trust and deception, to unmask the traitors from amongst them."

Nikhil Madhok, Head of Originals for Prime Video in India, expressed his excitement about the new show, stating that unscripted content is a key focus for the platform.
Madhok said: "Unscripted content continues to be a key focus for us at Prime Video, as we have witnessed an exponential growth in the consumption, attention, and appreciation for our unscripted Original library."
