The Traitors, adapted from the American reality series of the same name and originally based on the Dutch show De Verraders, has been creating waves since its premiere on June 12. Recently, Raftaar, who was recently dramatically voted out in Episode 6 despite claiming he was innocent to his fellow players in the Circle Of Shaq, revealed that comedian Samay Raina was originally set to be one of the contestants.
In a video posted on YouTube by Apoorva Mukhija, also known as The Rebel Kid on Sunday evening, Samay joined a video call with Raftaar, leading to a casual chat among the trio. During the conversation, the rapper was heard telling Apoorva, “Arey, by the way, yeh bhi aane wala tha show pe,” referring to Samay. To this, Apoorva responded that she already knew. Raftaar then added, “Iski date nahi aayi,” revealing that scheduling issues prevented Samay from joining The Traitors.
