**Urfi Javed and Nikita Dutta Crowned Winners of ‘The Traitors India’, Bagging ₹70 Lakh Prize**
**Mumbai, July 4, 2024** – Reality TV sensation Urfi Javed and poker ace Nikita Dutta have emerged victorious in the first season of Karan Johar’s ‘The Traitors India’, streaming on Prime Video. The duo outsmarted fellow contestants, including traitor Purab Jha in the nail-biting finale aired on July 3rd, claiming the grand prize of ₹70.05 lakh.
The unexpected win shocked many viewers who anticipated victory for contestants like Apoorva Makhija and Harsh Gujral. Urfi, known for her bold fashion choices, and Nikita, a skilled poker player, captivated audiences with their strategic gameplay throughout the show. In the final episode, their sharp deduction skills led to the exposure and elimination of the remaining traitor, sealing their win.
“It’s not always the smartest who wins,” Urfi Javed stated in a post-win interview. ” ‘The Traitors’ is about using your mind at the right moment. My survival instincts were very strong. I wasn’t sure I’d win until the very end.” Urfi further revealed her initial confusion about the traitors’ identities, admitting that a crucial conversation with Nikita led to their last-minute winning strategy.
‘The Traitors’ presented a unique concept, secretly assigning some contestants as “Traitors” whose mission was to eliminate the “Innocents” without revealing their true identities. The Innocents aimed to expose and eliminate the Traitors to win the reward money.
The inaugural season featured a star-studded lineup including Raj Kundra, Karan Kundrra, Raftaar, Ashish Vidyarthi, Jannat Zubair, Sudhanshu Pandey, Harsh Gujral, Elnaaz Norouzi, Apoorva Makhija, Janhvi Gaur, Lakshmi Manchu, Maheep Kapoor, and Sahil Salathia. The show has sparked considerable buzz on social media, with fans praising Urfi and Nikita’s strategic alliance and well-deserved victory.
