The Traitors Season 2 has finally crowned its winners! After weeks of betrayals, secret alliances, murders and tense Circles of Shaq, the Karan Johar-hosted reality show has come to an end. Krystle D’Souza and Rida Tharana have won The Traitors Season 2, taking home the Rs 66 lakh prize money together. The two Traitors managed to make it all the way to the end without being exposed by the other contestants.
But how did they pull it off? Here is everything that happened in the grand finale.
Who Won The Traitors Season 2?
Krystle D’Souza and Rida Tharana emerged as the joint winners of The Traitors Season 2. The biggest twist was that both finalists were actually Traitors. They managed to hide their identities until the very end and chose to stay together rather than turn on each other. The duo ultimately walked away with the Rs 66 lakh prize pot.
What Happened In The Traitors Season 2 Finale?
The finale began with Krystle and Sahil Salathia arriving at the breakfast table. Sahil became emotional as the reality of the finale set in. Rida Tharana and Shalini Passi then joined them, followed by Dalip Tahil.
However, Mallika Sherawat was missing. She had been murdered by the Traitors after revealing her identity as an Innocent to Krystle. This left Krystle, Sahil, Rida, Shalini and Dalip in the game.
The remaining contestants then had one final mission where they could add up to Rs 25 lakh to the prize pot. At that point, the pot stood at Rs 48.40 lakh. The contestants managed to earn Rs 17.60 lakh, taking the final prize money to Rs 66 lakh. But the game was far from over.
Who Was Eliminated Before The Final Stage?
The remaining players entered the Circle of Shaq, where the focus quickly shifted to Dalip Tahil. Krystle, Rida and Shalini decided that Dalip had to go.
Dalip was eventually eliminated from the game. However, he was not required to reveal whether he was an Innocent or a Traitor, leaving the remaining contestants with another mystery to solve. That brought the final four together – Krystle D’Souza, Rida Tharana, Shalini Passi and Sahil Salathia.
What Happened In The Final Trust And Shaq Round?
The final stage put the remaining four contestants face-to-face. They had to repeatedly choose between Trust and Shaq. All four initially chose Shaq, believing that at least one Traitor was still among them.
The suspicion quickly landed on Sahil. Rida, Krystle and Shalini all chose Sahil as the Traitor, resulting in his elimination. But the game still had another twist.
Did Shalini Passi Identify The Traitors?
After Sahil’s elimination, the Trust-or-Shaq cycle began again. This time, Krystle and Rida chose Trust, while Shalini chose Shaq. Shalini then voted for Rida, while Rida voted for Shalini. The result was clear. Shalini was eliminated. And with that, the final two were revealed.
How Did Krystle D’Souza And Rida Tharana Win?
The final two contestants were Krystle and Rida. Both had successfully kept their Traitor identities hidden throughout the endgame. Instead of turning against each other, the two remained together and won the game as Traitors.
Their victory also meant that the Innocents failed to take the prize, despite coming within touching distance of the finish line. Krystle and Rida ultimately became the joint winners of The Traitors Season 2, splitting the Rs 66 lakh prize money.

-
Krystle D’Souza
-
Rida Tharana
