I\u2019m very strategic in shows as well. But if you see, I don\u2019t have any strategy in both the reality shows. I\u2019ve played well by talking about myself. If there\u2019s a need for a strategy, a challenge, a task, I\u2019ll do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Munawar, who has been evicted from the second season of \u201cTraitors\u201d, said he prefers to play the game on his own terms and is willing to take risks, whether he is an innocent contestant or a traitor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I don\u2019t manipulate people for my own benefit. I manipulate people for their benefit as well. I\u2019m like the agent. If I get 80% benefit, you\u2019ll get 20 percent. I\u2019m not going to take any share of your 100 percent. I don\u2019t want to harm people because of me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, that\u2019s one thing. After winning both the reality shows, when I came here, I didn\u2019t have any strategy. I just had to play the game. If I\u2019m innocent, I\u2019ll catch the traitor. I\u2019ll risk it. And if I\u2019m a traitor, I won\u2019t escape. That\u2019s it. And the situation that came over me in both of them, I think there\u2019s no cure for that situation,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>Munawar also spoke about the him being evicted so soon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor me, it was too much, I showed so much true potential, it was overflowing, so that\u2019s why I was thrown out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Talking about the show, Traitors 2 is a social deduction game, where a group of contestants live together in a castle and try to win a large cash prize.<\/p>\n<p>Enter your email to get our daily news in your inbox.<\/p>\n<p>New Delhi: The Akhil Bharatiya Vanavasi Kalyan Ashram has sought that the chairperson of the high-powered committee constituted under the &#8230;<\/p>\n<p>It is a happy augury for Indian democracy that the country&#039;s young talents aspiring to join the legal profession have&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>In any democracy, the most disturbing threat to freedom is not always censorship.
