A major controversy has gripped reality show The Traitors Season 1 after contestant Approva, popularly known as “Rebel Kid,” allegedly used abusive language against Indian rap icon Raftaar. A now-viral clip circulating on social media appears to capture Approva saying “Raftaar bhenchod” during a heated exchange — a moment that has left fans stunned and social media buzzing.
Hosted by Karan Johar, The Traitors is a high-stakes psychological reality game show streaming on Prime Video. It features celebrities and influencers competing in a test of loyalty, deception, and trust. While known for its dramatic twists, the show has now taken an unexpected turn into real-life controversy.
Raftaar, one of India’s most respected rappers, known for his sharp intellect and strong opinions, was taken aback by the sudden outburst. Approva, a digital creator known for her bold commentary, has now come under fire, with fans of Raftaar flooding social media with calls for her apology and even demanding her removal from the show.
Many argue that while reality shows often fuel intense emotions, there’s a line between passionate gameplay and outright disrespect. Approva’s comment is now sparking broader discussions around contestant conduct, mental pressure in unscripted shows, and the ethics of what should be allowed to air.
