Siasat.com reports that Munawar Faruqui could earn Rs 8-10 lakh per episode on the second season of Prime Video's unscripted reality series The Traitors, hosted by Karan Johar. The show premieres on August 13 with 21 contestants. This estimate is based on his previous reality TV earnings, including Rs 7-8 lakh per week for Bigg Boss 17, where he won Rs 1.7 crore in total. His reality TV debut on Lock Upp Season 1 earned him Rs 2.5-3 lakh per week. The figures for The Traitors 2 have not been officially disclosed, but Faruqui's market value has grown significantly after winning two high-profile shows. If he progresses deep into the competition, his total earnings could run into several tens of lakhs.
