Meet the Cast of The Traitors India: Full Biographies and Roles
The Traitors Host: Karan Johar
Karan Johar, born on May 25, 1972, in Mumbai, is one of India’s most celebrated filmmakers and talk show hosts. Son of Yash Johar (founder of Dharma Productions), Karan rose to fame with his directorial debut Kuch Kuch Hota Hai in 1998. He has since become a media mogul with films like Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, My Name is Khan, and Netflix projects like Lust Stories under his belt.
For The Traitors, Karan steps into the shoes of the host with a deeper emotional connection, having stated that “traitors have always been part of my life”. His commanding presence and sharp wit add gravitas to the dramatic reality series.
