Teja Sajja, the actor known for roles in Rangasthalam and Saripodhaa Sanivaaram, has stepped into a new role: host of The Traitors Telugu. The reality series, which premieres on Amazon Prime Video from October 15, marks his first time fronting a game show — and it’s not going easy on him.
In an interview with The Hindu, Sajja admitted he was nervous, despite having over three decades of screen experience. 'I had to be serious, unlike my real personality,' he said, highlighting the shift from acting to hosting, where spontaneity is less welcome than precision. The show, based on the international format, pits contestants against each other in a high-stakes game of deception.
Some are ‘Traitors’, secretly working to eliminate others. While the rest are ‘Faithfuls’, trying to identify them. Sajja’s task? To deliver complex scripts in one take, keeping the tension tight and the pace relentless.
